I’d just like to spread the word about my experience at DOM. For those that don’t know it’s a “cocktail bar” in Nomad that markets itself as a high end cocktail bar which doubles as a club due to their being live DJs sometimes. They are the single scummiest and sketchiest establishment in all of […]
Just wanted to post some photos and say what an unbelievable experience it was overall!! Wish I had taken more photos of the food but unmistakably fantastic!! Shoutout the East Broadway Mall that was my favorite pork bun and fried dumpling!! Missed so many spots, so there’s much to hopefully explore down the line 🙂

I’ve lived here for 15 years and seen a lot of iterations of the nyc real estate market. I was talking to a friend who recently moved here about their experience finding a place and the usual themes came up e.g. cost, quality etc. It reminded me of a story when I was in college

I am not Georgian but grew up in Eastern Europe and was finally able to visit Tbilisi this year. Here’s a brief roundup of 11 places that serve Georgian food in NYC: Oda House (UES and Brighton) – the first Georgian place I went to in NYC. My college friend took me here back when

Prefacing this post by saying that I mean this entirely without snark, but it really does seem like a doomed formula. My assumption is that these establishments are extremely expensive and take a ton of work to set up, but all I ever hear about is them closing at such a rate that I’m amazed

Request in the title. Ideally looking for somewhere on the west side of Manhattan off the A train. Needs to be public, quiet enough to talk, and (most importantly) dull and disappointing enough that I don’t mind my memory of the place being forever tarnished by heartbreak. submitted by /u/drunk_me [link] [comments]

A recent post asking when it’s okay to ignore strangers got me thinking about this guy I saw on the train Saturday night. He was a white man in his 40s, vaguely scruffy, but not obviously unhoused or otherwise in crisis. Out of the blue, without getting out of his seat, he raised his voice

The title sounds a little extreme, but I’ve lived here for 5 years and i’ve started to notice that after I come back I slip back into this mental feeling that feels a little like brain fog or a little like being in a bit of a zombie feeling state. I’ve lived all around the
Got there around 2pm and the line was a half block long. Waited 30 minutes to order, and another 45 minutes for the food to come out. The place was packed and they sold out while I was waiting. The cheesesteak itself was one of the best ones I’ve had in my life, and I’ve
So, I’ve been noticing the explosion of omakase spots popping up on every other block in NYC over the past year or two, but today it really hit me. I had to jump on Resy for the first time in a while (ugh, F**K Resy and the whole Resy culture), and I swear, like 75%

I’m coming to NYC very soon with my son for treatment at Sloan Kettering. We’re coming from a rural place, really rural. We don’t have public transit. We don’t have food delivery.

Not really sure what I’m looking for here but I’ve noticed a lot of kids who appear to be migrants on the subway selling candy. Often they’re with a parent but today I saw two without parents. One was crying as he tried to sell me gum. I asked him (in Spanish) where his parents

Huge disappointment. We had requested regular meals (not the vegetarian option) and received close to no meat. It seriously felt like we were receiving last nights leftovers. Everything was super random, and although you could taste some freshness in the vegetables, the meal itself did not feel cohesive or exciting at all. I thought at

Our apartment hasn’t had heat for over 48 hours and we texted the landlord as soon as we noticed the issue. I got fed up of sleeping without heat so I called him and mentioned that it’s 60 degrees so I’m wondering when he can turn it on. He started getting pissed over the phone

Angelo’s Pizza-7.5/10, we really enjoyed it. This was the personal pan size and was plenty. 2 & 3. Broad Nosh Bagels-8.5/10-delicious. Really good, good prices, fast service. 4 & 5. The Refinery Rooftop: 6/10. Nice ambiance in the restaurant but that was the highlight. The food was nothing special and was overpriced. My grilled cheese

I find that with some food places once they become famous, they start slacking and cutting corners to make profit from the fame, leading to lower quality food. I’ll start with Halal Guys. 10 years ago it was great right as they were getting famous. Roughly 5 years ago I had it and the meat
