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!

Favorite brunch in Greenpoint. Get the caesar salad, the salmon gravlax, tortilla and pancakes. You can do no wrong.

New York / Gallery

Yossi Milo is, in my opinion, the most dynamic and eclectic of the photography galleries in NYC. From portaiture to architecture to experimental digital sculptural giant animals to street photography, they show an endlessly exciting range of work. Some of my favorite recent shows include Simen Johan's mythical beasts, Ezra Stoller's architectural photographs of the TWA terminal, and Sze Tsung Leong's huge cityscapes.

New York / Market

I think it takes place every Saturday morning to afternoon, vintage shopping while having a great view at the Manhattan skyline from the East River State park. You will find lots of vintage shops and warehouses around this area of Williamsburg.

This is a pro tip, but also a summer tip, take the ferry from Lower Manhattan to Rockaway and spent the day. The beach is great and the area is impossible to gasp that it's 30 min from Manhattan (without traffic) - Eat as many tacos you can, cause it's the best in the state of New York!

I’m crazy for pork buns and ramen. The wait is always long at Ippudo but I never regret it.
