It's New York in a snapshot. Any given night you can rub elbows with Dave Chapelle, Sean Lennon, and Mariah Carey. The food is tops with the best fried chicken South of the Mississippi. Cajun catfish is pretty amazing too. Sit at the bar at this NYC institution that's open till 4am. You'll soon realize chefs come here for dinner after they thrown in the towel from their shifts.

It's the freshest most inventive sushi while still being grounded in tradition. Ask Dee for a spot in the back tell them Max sent you. He can recommend an amazing dry sake too. Green Tea Creme Brulé is a must for desert.

Vegan Mexican. Inventive, fresh, cool decor and right around the corner from The Metrograph cinema. Cool, edgy area you'll want to hunker down with your camera and see what the far D-town East Side is all about.

Restaurant/Bar/Brasserie. Romantic and meticulously laid out gem. Open till 2am. Can't go wrong with this one. And the brunch is iconic if you can with stand the wait. I prefer to go there after 9pm. Same quality-driven owner / chef, Jody Williams, of Via Carota.

Parks & Nature

Get your walking shoes on! Don't ask questions, just go :) It's four blocks away. Re-jigged elevated train track with a design-centric flair by starchitects DS+R. Lots to see and do in the Meat Packing area as well.

Many a dreamer have walked those cobblestones. Films are constantly shot there and it's the official/unofficial NYU campus. Being my alma mater, I'm partially biased to the magic of the area. You can spend the whole day there and write a novel just on your surroundings constantly changing with such joie de vivre.

Here's where you run. Right alongside the water some of the most beautiful views of downtown can be seen. The boardwalk was recently re-done and very exercise friendly. Listening to music from your ear buds as you jog, you'll feel like your'e in a Nike commercial.
