One of the best curated visual art books in New York and the World, with a bent towards a crossover of music/art/psychedelics. A place to feed the art habit, remembering that the greatest images are still locked in books and not online.

Christina Tosi's magical bakery of deliciousness.

Getaway not far from the city. Nice beach, surreal pool. Next to Fire Island (which is also super nice).

For oysters & libations. The comprehensive oyster menu changes depending on what they can get that's fresh. If you know anything about oysters or just plain like them, this is without question the spot. Currently my favorite oyster (not always on their menu) is the Skookum.

Pratt has an amazing sculpture park open for everyone to see.
