    Here are the names of two good pubs if you like a great selection of beers from around the world. They both draw a good mixed crowd.

    The Blind Tiger - on Bleecker St in the West Village.

    The Gingerman - 36th between 6th and Park.

    If you want to go to the coolest, weirdest Japanese resaurant (Japanese tapas and 1000 different Sakes) check out this place. You would only find a place like this in NYC. Get the eel.

    Stay the fuck away from Times Sq unless you are going to a show. It's corporate hell now and total tourist crap.

    If you are into celebrity chefs and don't want to break the bank, go to Otto, at 1 Fifth Ave. It's Mario Batali's pizza and pasta join, very affordable and good. Then head over the Blind Tiger, it's pretty close by.

    i was there 2 years ago, you'll really enjoy it
    go to the top of the empire states building
    do a lot of shopping as you get 2 dollars to a pound and there are some great sport shops
    you should try and go to the garden as well

    Thanks for all your input guys.

    Last weekend Mrs Memphis and I strolled into the local travel agents like we owned the place and booked it up.


    Thats right, Mel and I are off in 10 weeks to.....















































    Turkey!

    We made the mistake of trying to fit a holiday into our time off work rather than the other way around we couldnt do New York, our next destination of Egypt was out the window too. In the end we got the poor woman to search all flights leaving on the day we wanted and coming back when we wanted and Turkey was the best within our budget by a long chalk.

    We will go to New York, Im not dissapointed actually, would be a shame really to go all that way and NOT take in a big fight.

    I will keep all your comments though, thanks all

    Honestly mate, we tried Tunisia, Egypt, dabbled with the idea of Mexico but the flight was too long (woman next to us at the time got a pie hot deal for Cancun )

    Mel hates big complexes so we were really testing the poor woman who booked it, she was great to be fair.

    Will it make things worse if I say we're staying at the hotel Daffodil?
