    Ok,Im going to go food first and foremost
    Theres a burger joint on St Marks Place that is to die for,St Marks is fun anyway
    Get a falafel and a knish from one of the vendors around town
    The Museum Of Modern Art is great
    Chinatown south of Houston is interesting,dont pronounce it like the city by the way its pronounced more like Howston
    He charges too much,but Bleeker Bobs is fun if your in to music
    Meh,you can do your whole trip just to the village and have a blast

    I went last year mate, it's awesome.

    Can I recommend a tour of Madison Square Garden and Macy's shopping centre, seriousley get as much stuff as you can from Macy's as the dollar is so cheap compared to the pound.

    Also don't have breakfast in your hotel, go to Deli's they are fine and order pancakes and syrup

    My Mum is just booking us and our family to go over Christmas and New Year, we've just booked to got to Lanzarote in 3 weeks to get away from this miserable English weather.

    Have a great time bro

    Leftylee is right about the Deli's
    You get a better breakfast from them,then anywhere else,except for maybe the Deli that used to be on Avenue A(I dont know if its still there)but I usually go for the egg sandwich

    Lefty, you're going there for New Years? You are a crazy man!! As much as i'm sure it's cool to experience, it is a MAD HOUSE.. I have a friend who is a cop in the bronx and he said that he'd be able to get me and my girlfriend right to the front without a wait, but i still wasn't even slightly leaning towards going.. Think of having the most amount of people you could EVER imagine completely crammed into the same place in the streets.. No where to go to the bathroom so people piss wherever they can find, and normally the performers suck.. But again, i'm sure it's all about the experience..



    And for you Memphis.. if you're into italian food at all, go to Carmines Restaurant, i forget on which street it is on but i can look into it if you're interested.. Everything is served "family style" so you orders platters as opposed to single entrees, but the food is AMAZING.. There is a Carmine's in NYC, somewhere like Bermuda or something, i think one in cali, and for SOME STRANGE REASON, they decided to put one at this sort of 'casino' place about 20 min from me.. why? i don't know, but how happy am i? haha.. enjoy your stay Memph!

    Stay the fuck outta Brownsville and Bedford-Stuyvesant.

    You might want to check out the Museum Of Natural History, Sea Air & Space Museum and of course Times Square.

    I went go anywhere to foreign...

    Mexicos about as far as I'll go.
    Any country with Z's and K's and R's in it ain't for me.

    I easily miss my bed and the comfort of my car and home.


    Keep us posted.
