citylikeyou — Pies 'n' Thighs — New York by Michael Szivos

New York / Restaurant

I can never decide if I like pies or thighs more. Figure it’s not the worst problem to have. Chicken biscuit is so good it should be listed as a narcotic. If you live in NYC and you haven’t been, GO! If you are visiting and you find yourself in Williamsburg, GO!

New York / Restaurant

My favorite restaurant to pop in spontaneously on a weeknight. Get the lamb burger with sardines and a mezcal negroni. It also has my favorite looking bathroom in NYC.

New York / Bookstore

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.

New York / Restaurant

Get a piece of the south back with a chicken biscuit from Pies & Thighs.

New York / Cafe

Little skips is my place when I need to refill my energy with some morning sunlight. The big windows facing the street let all the light in while you can drink some coffee. My favorite thing to eat is the grilled cheese sandwich with some avocado. Out of rush hours or weekend mornings, it's a pretty good space to take your laptop and get some work done.

New York / Gallery

This artist-run gallery is a hub of the Brooklyn gallery scene. You'll find Bungee, a celebrated fixture, snoozing comfortably in the office and somehow oblivious to all the surrounding chaos.
