Members zachary vex Posted November 15, 2009 Members Share Posted November 15, 2009 Deno's Party House USA, aka the Bikini Bar 393 8th Ave (between 29th St & 30th St) in the Fashion District. People either love or hate this place. Late night is best, and be sure to buy the bartenders (who are all young Russian girls in bikinis) a few rounds of drinks. They love taking shots and mixing themselves up crazy concoctions, but you have to buy them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 89strat Posted November 15, 2009 Members Share Posted November 15, 2009 Start at Ludlow Street, head up the block to Katz's for some pastrami, cross over the Williamsburg bridge to Brooklyn for Main Drag music and Southside. You will not be disappointed. Grab a cup of coffee at just about anywhere there, then head back into the City to 30th Street guitars. You'll find better prices at the places in Brooklyn, but 30th street is like porn to guitar geeks like us. The bikini bar is down the block. While you're there, have a couple of drinks, a burger, then walk up the block and take in a Ranger game at the garden, then head to Bleecker Street for some late night bars and local bands. Comfortable shoes and a subway metro card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members OXFUZZ Posted November 15, 2009 Members Share Posted November 15, 2009 Nov. 27 @ BB Kings in Times Square, there is a Jimi Hendrix Birthday Party with Lance Lopez. Serious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Fenderman1991 Posted November 16, 2009 Members Share Posted November 16, 2009 Head to a Sbarro, Gray's Papaya, and a legit deli like Katz's or Stage deli. Get some Nuts 4 Nuts (on many street corners in midtown). Music Row is fun, but unless you have something to get or plan on sitting down to try something, it's not a big thing. It's just like going to your local GC or something, though Rudy's is pretty sick. Times Square is amazing. Walk the length of it, go everywhere you can. Just the atmosphere is awesome. Head downtown, walk around Chinatown (Canal and Mott streets, but also in the side neighborhoods, like near the Knitting Factory. When I went to a show there, the area around the venue was very nice.) Head to Greenwich Village and Washington Square. Go uptown and go to a place called Chickee's.

Members elxchino Posted November 16, 2009 Members Share Posted November 16, 2009 Why are people saying Sbarro? You all mean the pizzeria, right? They're everywhere.

Members AnderMocs Posted November 17, 2009 Members Share Posted November 17, 2009 Pass up ground zero IMO. Most of it is fenced in and you can't really see anything. Wait till they get off their asses and actually build something there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Trick Fall Posted November 17, 2009 Members Share Posted November 17, 2009 I don't get the Sbarro thing either. Go to John's on Bleecker and get a brick oven pie or something. Unfortunately the days of any ole pizza place in the city having good pizza are gone. It's hard to get a good slice, it's not easy getting a good bagel either.

Members reverberlayed Posted November 17, 2009 Members Share Posted November 17, 2009 Come to New Haven for pizza. Only about an hour, maybe hour and 15 mins away from the city. Hit up Wooster Street, hit up Sally's or Pepe's for pizza and grab some Italian ice/Italian pastry from Libby's. You won't be disappointed. And if you want the original hamburger visit Crown Street and go to Louie's Lunch. Pure awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
