My personal favorite place to get a bagel. I only really order the lox bagel though. The white fish bagel is also good as well. Since there there is no seating at this location I like to walk up the block to Matcha House to eat my bagel as they don’t mind as long as […]

Amuse-Bouche: I don’t remember what any of the amuse-bouche were, but all 3 bites were solid beginning to the meal. Bread: The bread here was absolutely wonderful, and only L’Atelier de Joël Robuchon has ever given me better bread. I do wish the bread was served warm though.

Ever since he left, they’ve tried to replace him with a potpourri of writers, and none are remotely close to supplanting his prose.

For weeks, I wouldn’t get hot water from around 9-11 pm, so I’d end up showering late and going to bed late. Then suddenly when the temp here in nyc got really cold again this week, I didn’t get any hot water at all. At best, it was lukewarm, and when I was trying to

Hi all, I am seriously wondering how people can afford to stay here. Been here almost a decade and the rise in costs–especially since the pandemic–are absolutely crushing us. Our situation is: We make about $145,000 as a couple before taxes, both later 30s Our previous apartment’s lease could not be renewed, so we just

Shits expensive yo. But really I make $63000 right now before deductions. I have enough for a down payment I just don’t quite have enough for mortgage payments.

Hi – I have a facial disfigurement since childhood and have struggled with dating as a result.

Known for their $2.50 rice rolls Sun Hing Lung makes good ones that are thick and filling. During winter and fall they’ve become known for their brisket rice roll that I still need to try. Really tasty rice rolls that are probably my second favorite in NYC. Sun Hing Lung doesn’t have a website so

Is it really that surprising that people aren’t drinking out as much anymore given the preposterous cost of drinks nowadays? I love cocktails and much to the detriment of my wallet will often hit up specialty cocktail bars, and fork up the $25/drink (incl. tip/tax). I wish they were cheaper but it is what it

Genuine question: when did people decide that playing videos, music, or even phone calls on speaker on the train is normal?

Not the tourist stuff. The small things that took you years to notice.

I’m a 27yo F native New Yorker from Queens, and lately I can’t tell if the vibe of the city has actually changed or if it’s just me getting older. But something genuinely feels different.

I’m looking for real Peking duck with puffed skin thick with air holes.
