New York, NY (USA)

No trip to NYC is complete without stopping by Whiskey Tavern.  It's an irish style pub in chinatown and it just works.

One of my absolute favorite bars anyway - they even make their own house whiskey in Brooklyn.

Finally making it to NYC in a months time.  I'm pretty well versed in all the standard tourist nonsense, but if anyone has any super local / obscure tips for last week in September then please, recomend away

I'd pm @Finn666

Hi,

Would any New York IH members be interested in being interviewed about raw denim and online forums?  If so, I'll be in NY from Friday 27th to Sunday 29th.

More information on the research project in this thread http://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=7155.msg392695#msg392695.

I've already met up with a number of SF and Toronto members who can vouch for me.

Please PM or e-mail (nweiner@yorku.ca) if interested.

Cheers,

Nat

Heading back to NYC next week… usual tourist toss of course... but what i need is some good pizza/taco/breakfast spots in the LES.  I'm staying a few streets over from Self Edge    Post here any great spots, else I'll end up in Sweet Chick for food and gravitating back over towards Spring Lounge for tall cans of Mama's Yella Pils like a stupid hipster wanker.

Hit Lombardi's for Pizza.  Touristy but still damn good.

Also, Keste for Pizza, not too far from where you're staying, even better IMO.

I had some really tasty neoploitian style pizza at piacere, which was in the general vicinity of self edge. If you are into beer check out top hops in the same neighbourhood as well

I have a list of food/stores/coffee shops/bars that I've been building up since moving here, let me know if anyone would like it.

I know it's a bit of a dredge, but any suggestions for places to eat and visit?

Trying to decide  between Keen's and Peter Luger for steak, etc etc

@David_pll ?

Visit Self Edge NY on Orchard Street, and while you're on Orchard get a pizza from Scarrs Pizza. Ridiculously good. You can grab a slice, or ask for a personal pan pizza (takes like 30-45 mins to make when it's busy, but they have a bar)

@Matty123 always has some good tips for food as well

Lugers 100 percent. Keens is great but Lugers is a MUST. But bring cash because they only take cash or their own Peter Lugers Credit card.

Good luck getting into Peter Lugers without a reservation,and they usually need to be made a month in advance. Keens has a crazy/amazing selection of bourbons and scotches.

I'm cheap, I know…but!

Did I understand right, if I visit NYC and visit for example Self edge, it is prices+sales tax (8.something%), but I if I order online to my hotel in NYC they still add tax?

Thanks for the answers in advance.

[Giles]

You need to ask them.  Legally they should charge tax on any purchase or shipment in/to a state they have a business presence in.

[Djsfh]

Thanks for the answers. I will be visiting from Finland (my residency). I like to bring my money to brick&mortar, but hate to pay too much taxes
