I am going to NY to celebrate my birthday, what does NY have to offer as far as great fun & entertainment?

Question

Name some great restaurants, clubs (for partying), shopping spots, site seeing, etc. Where would you go if you were in NY?

Answer 1

I definately wouldn't leave without seeing a couple of shows on Broadway! Don't forget the famous Kat'z Deli & Tavern on the Green & NYC shopping is like no other, look for cute, independent boutiques which are all over the city. I hope you have lots of fun! :)

Answer 2

This has to be a trick question. The city that does not sleep, world class theater, best restaurants, music and dancing on the streets. Stay in the East Village, buy a $ 50 metro card, and travel from the Bronx to the Battery. get off every other stop. You will have a blast

Answer 3

McDonalds is pretty good, i found a bandade in my fry box once but nothing too serious since that evil night. Anyway do you know where i could buy a good used car? Ive been looking for weeks now and all i came up with was a 88 Ford Fiesta and a 79 Chevy Celebrity neither of them will start and the Celibrity wont even start, i thought it was going to the other day but there was just a bunch of smoke coming up under neath where the stearing wheel goes in to the dash, probably normal, there is a big crack in the dash board and the dealership said they had to put it there to cool down the inside of the car since the windows wont roll down without a pry stick.
