Been going here a long time. Solid Italian spot with freshly made pasta. Get the cavatelli with Sausage.

Every seat is a good seat in this small, intimate theater dedicated to dance. Nearly every dance company has filtered through the theater and with a season that lasts about 45 weeks, there's always a performance to see and tickets are very reasonably priced. I prefer a performance at The Joyce then at Lincoln Center any day.

No, it's not a butcher shop. It's a destination sneaker spot with the best selection of Vans!

Chinatown in general, I've lived in chinatown on and off for my entire time in New York and i never tire of it’s textures, smells, artificial lighting and grime. There's some amazing things to happen upon there as you trek about your way, a true city experience. Love this little culture shop Aeon, gems of records, art and ephemera tucked away like most good things are.

This little French-Morroccan restaurant is a perfect place for meeting artist friends and, of course, great escargot.
