The word “atmospheric” doesn’t begin to describe Maison Premiere’s lush, straight-out-of-New Orleans backyard. Where better to spend a sultry summer night than seated at a wrought-iron table with lights twinkling overhead, a spread of ice-cold oysters on the table, and a sherry cobbler in hand? Here, the regularly-rotating cocktail menu is among the strongest in the city; recent highlights include the “Barber of Seville,” with rye, sherry, lemon, and orgeat, and the “Carondelet,” with Beefeater gin, citrus, blossom honey, and vanilla. The extensive Champagne list is icing on the cake.

Like a traditional Japanese ramen, this narrow, below-street-level noodle joint is designed for quick meals. Most seats are along a counter, behind which the chefs crisp pork slices with a propane torch and tend to bubbling stockpots. They serve arguably the best ramen in the entire city! Be prepared to wait. Try non-peak hours, such as 3-6PM or later in the evening after 9PM; it will still be a wait, but is worth it!

Go to the comedy cellar. It is a MUST for anyone visiting NYC. You really can't miss it. Buy tickets in advance online, and then be prepared to buy 2 drinks at the comedy club (they have a 2 drink minimum rule). It's very famous and you will see famous comedians there. They have a second location which is not as good as the original, so make sure you go to the original one (call and ask them if you need to..).. don't miss it..

A personal favorite. One of the finest museums in the US. "Suggested Admission" means if you buy tickets at a museum ticket counter, the amount you pay is up to you. Ticket includes same-day admission to The Met Fifth Avenue, The Met Breuer, and The Met Cloisters. Met Rooftop Bar and Garden offers sweeping views of Central Park and beyond that can be enjoyed with wine, cocktails, and light bites. It is often busy with crowds, but the scenery and the special atmosphere make it well-worth a trip. Try to go on a weekday when the crowds have thinned. Closed Thanksgiving Day, December 25, January 1, and the first Monday in May.

Brooklyn Botanic Gardens has incredible architecture, rare plants, flowers, and meticulously cared for gardens. World famous Cherry Blossom Esplanade, Japanese and Rose Gardens are located at this beautiful Brooklyn Landmark. Perfect for macro and plant photography. Free on Tuesdays and Saturday before noon. This is one of my favorite places to visit in New York City. It's a perfect place to go in spring/ summer. The famous cherry blossom esplanade is a must see, especially during is season. The bonsai museum and the Japanese garden are also amazing. Admission is free on Tuesdays ;)

Prospect Park was designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux after their completion of Manhattan's Central Park. Main attractions of the park include the 90-acre (36 ha) Long Meadow; the Picnic House; Litchfield Villa, the pre-existing home of Edwin Clark Litchfield, an early developer of the neighborhood and a former owner of a southern section of the Park; Prospect Park Zoo; a large nature conservancy managed by the Wildlife Conservation Society; The Boathouse, housing a visitors center and the first urban Audubon Center; Brooklyn's only lake, covering 60 acres (24 ha); the Prospect Park Bandshell that hosts free outdoor concerts in the summertime. The park also has sports facilities including seven baseball fields in the Long Meadow, and the Prospect Park Tennis Center, basketball courts, baseball fields, soccer fields, and the New York Pétanque Club in the Parade Ground. There is also a private Society of Friends cemetery on Quaker Hill near the ball fields, where actor Montgomery Clift is interred.

Fantastic and unique urban park built on elevated railroad tracks. Arrive there via c-train (8th ave line) to 34th and walk west to 11th Ave to access. Enjoy a leisurely walk the length of the park south to Gansevoort Street; So much to see and enjoy: history, architecture, NY-in-motion, view of the Hudson River, lush gardens, fun-food, New York's old and new! It's narrow and somewhat crowded at times, but well worth the energy and time.

You go there, buy tickets, sit at the bar before you line up to go in. Sit down and waiters take your food and drink orders and bring them to you while you watch the movie. Some new films are there, but always there are classics and offbeat films. They even do a brunch and a movie. Awesome spot. When you walk out, make a left or a right and you'll find bars, sushi spots, ramen, anything. Right and a left and you'll be on Bedford Avenue right in the heart of Williamsburg proper.

This is not your average bowling alley, in fact, bowling is just a pleasant aside to the awesome food and music with a decent sized dance floor. Think: nightclub meets restaurant meets bowling alley. Bonus: ?uestlove (The Roots / Jimmy Fallon fame) plays a resident DJ set on Thursdays.

Great small zoo right in Central Park. See the sea lions get fed and show off. Red pandas, polar bears, tropical birds and -- my favorites -- the snow monkeys. Family friendly with food court and restrooms.
