Trip to NYC, What to do


Hi all,

Heading to NYC and was wondering if anyone has some suggestions for some audiophile to dos in the big apple. Looking forward to hearing from you guys, thanks.

****Have a steak at Peter Lugers, get some Chinese food at 69 Bayard Street in Chinatown, have lunch or dinner at Gotham Bar and Grill and then go home. There's nothing much else of value here. IMO. ****

Are you serious?
The last time I dined at Peter Lugers I don't believe they accepted credit cards. Also, you must eat a pastrami sandwich at a deli. I'm not sure why Chayro said not to but that's just bad advice. Heck, I'd even do it at the Carnegie Deli just to be thoroughly disgusted at the portion size.

I would check out B&H Photo. It's impressive.
Peter Lugers only takes their own credit card. Two people, two bills and worth every dollar. Don't get better. Stage Deli for deli, but Pastrami King in Merrick has the best pastrami I've ever tasted. Used to be in Queens by the courthouse. Way out of your way, but good to know if you go visiting. Pizza at Johns' on Bleeker, or Rays on 7th ave and 12th. Zabars, lox and a million other gastro wonders. BTW, there are oodles of killer pizza joints. St Marks Pl. for Indian. Cheap, (American) hot, and Indian hot, but make sure you know the nearest medical center. St Marks Pl will put you in the thick of things. Soho= Nobu. Sushi to die for. Expensive, but beautiful to behold before eating. Chefs menu is to die for. With Saki you're talking way over $300. Worth every dime if you have the $$, though you can do killer sushi very cheap, as well. Pickles to die for down on Essex. Sylvias for soul food up in Harlem. Harlem has changed, big time. Buy New York mag and you'll be kept busy. Great food in the Big Apple is expensive and inexpensive. It's called competition.
Singer and Lyric are state of the art. Ear candy, but they will size you up. Where a Rolex, Santoni shoes, Stichs jeans and a Ferragamo or Canali leather jacket with a Loro Piana white scarf and you will hear the big boys. Worth checking it out, just to say you've been there. Big sound, big dollars, big speakers, and big selection. Did I leave out a big? Have a ball. Pig, jazz it up, and hope the Beacon has something going on.
