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!

I like coming down here with friends when the weather permits and drinking on the beach or on the rocks when the tides come in.

Within an couple hours' drive of NYC, you can find lots of sleepy seaside towns. Not only can you get your soft ice cream and salt water taffy on, but you can still spot cool, hand-lettered signs and other relics of a past generation's amusements.

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

Consistently superb wlbrg staple. Good for coffee, lunch and lavish dinners.
