Food Scene
A gourmet cash only sandwich shop.
Draconian no-substitutions policy, but you won't care once you take a bite into one of their sandwiches.
My favorite is the veal hoisin meatball, but all are great

Few restaurants marry a hip, fun aesthetic with truly excellent food; Pipa is such a place. Great for date night or for dinner with some friends. Beware the strength of the sangria!

A West Village favorite, they don't take reservations, so if you're in the area, put your name down in advance. You won't regret it. I often wake up Sunday morning craving their bloody mary.

Everything Else
When in New York, you must eat a New York bagel.
Murray's is the gold standard. Often it gets busy, so be prepared to wait. Their fully loaded lox bagel cures even the most harrowing of hangovers.

The Standard Hotel is a Meatpacking staple. In the summer months, enjoy the Biergarden and the beautiful clientele. In the winter, the skating rink is a wonderful place to embrace your inner child.

Essentials
Sure, Whole Foods is nearbye, but Garden of Eden puts the grocer giant to shame. International offerings, impeccable produce, and a cheese counter to rival a cheesemongr's. Pricey, but worth it.

Drinks & Nightlife
My favorite bar in NYC. Odd entrance, beautiful interior, great view, expert mixologists. No parties over 4 admitted. Often a wait as no rezzies. Arrive right at opening at 6:00pm to be whisked in.
