Bitch tours NYC
No, I´m not selling a franchise in NY, I´m visiting in October.
So, any New Yorker who wants to give me a Bitch Tour (or whatever tour you can offer)?
Also, I´d love to hear recommendations, invitations, offerings etc, etc.
E- mail me please
Thank you

Hey Diva,
Lucky you, going to new York! Here are some tips:
Places to see - Staten Island ferry (free and great views of Manhattan), Little Italy and Chinatown, Union Square market, MOMA, Top of the Rock at Rockefeller Center (better views than from the Empire State, plus you actually get to take good pictures of the Empire State), Neue Galerie (Austrian art in a beautiful house, great cafe), Brooklyn (walk along the Brooklyn bridge then wander around Dumbo and Brooklyn's leafy streets), the Guggenheim
Places to eat - Lombardi's (bustly, gorgeous pizza), Clinton Street Baking Company (good brunches), Katz's Deli (a classic), Spotted Pig, City Bakery, Island Burgers & Shakes, Frankie and Johnnie’s Steak House (though I hesitate to recommend a steak house to a porteña!), Magnolia Bakery (for the cupcakes)
Places to drink - Flatiron Lounge (art deco-style bar, great cocktails)
Places to dance - Studio B in Brooklyn (cool music, cool crowd, cool everything in fact but not pretentious. Also the second home of DFA records if you're into their stuff)
Places to shop - Zabar's (food and cafe), Urban Outfitters, American Apparel
Have a good time!
Sandra
Thank you Sandra!
the best advice i can give you is follow this link and sign up for the nonsense nyc newsletter. http://www.nonsensenyc.com/about/
here is what you will find
"Street events, loft parties, puppet shows, bike rallys, costume balls, interactive art shows, movies in unusual places, parades, outlaw dancing, guerilla theater, burlesque and variety shows, loser open mikes, cirkuses, and absurdist pranks. Nonsense covers the stuff that has no name, or a name that you feel really awkward and self-conscious saying out loud, like "underground." "
i believe everything is free
Great Lizzz I´ll sing up for that
Diva,
The very first two links in my New York post are a must visit for you in New York if you happen to like chocolate and rice pudding (arroz con leche).
I happen to like both, so I´ll bread your post
thank you
Hi Diva!
For a great "burger and beer session" you should go to P.J. Clarke´s at 3rd Av and 55th Street. It is an old bar that has a very nice vibe. Nice place for a happy hour. They have a very nice raw bar (seafood) too.
Enjoy NY! I really love that city.
Hi again,
Almost forgot, you can find a bunch of nice and small restaurants at Bleecker Street between 6th and 7th Av. This is in the Greenwich Village. I recommend going there for a weekend lunch. There is a good risotto place, called "Risotteria" and a nice seafood restaurant called "Fish". As you can see they are not really cretive on putting names to the restaurants, but the food is nice. :-)
hahahha, thank you Sandro, I Love Risotto, I´ll definitly try that place
thank you!
Hello Diva --
Everyone has listed some great spots in NYC, and I'd like to encourage you to check out Brooklyn. From what I can gather from this blog you strike me as a Brooklyn girl. While you are here I can offer you a Brooklyn Bitch Bike Tour, if you're so inclined (email me). If not, I'll leave you with some things to check out in Brooklyn:
Red Hook - it's a neighborhood, and I think one of the best in all of the city. It's hard to get to, but has the best light and views, and is home to the best bar (sunny's)http://sunnysredhook.com/, Saturday nights are the best (not that all porteños are alike, but I took a group a few weeks ago and they loved it).
Best bar / restaurant for the vibe, music, and fig cake - Moto in Williamsburg - it's tiny, has the perfect feel, and good music. http://www.circa1938.com/
A great dive bar that's been around forever: Freddie's on 6th avenue and Dean (http://www.freddysbackroom.com/)
Good places to check out music that's more café and less Bowery Ball Room (aside from Sunny's and Moto):
Zebulon (http://www.zebuloncafeconcert.com/zeb.swf)in Williamsburg, Barbes (http://barbesbrooklyn.com/) in Park Slope, Galapagos (http://www.galapagosartspace.com/events.html) in Dumbo (this is also good for new theater, burlesque, etc.). There is also Music Hall of Williamsburg for more well-known musicians: http://www.musichallofwilliamsburg.com/
I highly recommend you wait in line for pizza at Gramaldi's under the Brooklyn Bridge, then get ice cream at the Brooklyn ice cream factory, and then walk over the Brooklyn Bridge to Manhattan.
Check out this blog for great Brooklyn ideas:

Enjoy your time in NYC.
