ITT: NYC bros talk about how great NYC is and how great they are for living there

That is correct. I’ve had it in my head it was in May since we signed up.

 

I need a recommendation for dinner for somewhere on Staten Island (I know) or somewhere that wouldn’t be a pain in the ass to get to. I have a car

 

Anyone been to the new Jose Andres restaurant at the Ritz in Nomad?

Going to be up for a few days in March for work. Wife coming to meet me on a Friday night and we booked a table with some friends. Looks great but obviously very new.

 

Going to be in NYC this weekend. Catching the Knicks game Friday and then have all day Saturday to roam. The hotel is between Central Park and Times Square so any recs of places to eat would be highly appreciated

 

Marking myself SAFE from the earthquake

 

4.8 epicenter Lebanon NJ. Rattled my house outside of Philly

 

I’ll come rock your world

 

Felt it in park slope. It swung a few doors open. Probably need to order F&F for dinner to calm my trauma.

 

Thoughts and prayers friends

 

I was in the lincoln tunnel, bus jumped I thought we blew a tire for a second, very bizarre. My wife says it sounded like a tree hit our house in north jersey

 

Like a mile from the epicenter, some pretty good shaking for like 20 seconds

 

My apartment was shaking for a good 10-15 seconds and I’m 10 blocks north of Madison Square Park.

 

congrats on joining the west coast to all my east coast bros

 

For reference

 

reporting in from half a block from F&F

rattled my cupboards and dishes around

ran downstairs and my favorite 60 year old guido guy was yelling “4.8! A fawkin 4.8!”

 

Strand bookstore was a safe haven from the earthquake.

 

Everyone needs to see SWEENEY TODD with Tveit and Foster. It’s electric

 

Fuck the strand

 

Second this. It rocked

 

Keen’s last night

Place still absolutely fucks

 

Lunch at Harry's yesterday. Really well priced wine list for those looking to open up some special stuff. Colorado lamb was excellent and service was spot on.

 

Shot in the dark here, but I have two tickets to Tyler Childers at MSG on May 29 if anyone is interested.

 

thanks for the rec. we made a last minute trip and saw it last night. Incredible performances that I would have been sad to have missed

 

grabbing an Emmy burger tomorrow. Haven’t been in a while and miss it tremendously

 

Hosting a dinner fundraiser in Manhattan in Mid May for 35 people. Originally was going to do Il Buco but for logistics reasons have to do it in midtown west-ish. Guest of honor coming from Columbus circle. Any suggestions for private event space? Looking at Bad Roman, Blue Willow….new to the private event space game so any suggestions are welcome!

 

God, I love it here.

My best trait is claiming every restaurant I see is famous.

 

Any recs on good weekday bars near midtown? Will be in town for a week in May

 

where are you staying and what are you looking for? Irish bar to watch sports at? Cocktail place? Somewhere to grab a drink and some good food?

 

How did it go today?

 

Awesome. Great job, man.

God, Flatbush sucked.

I was 1:52:26. I took me almost as long to find my wife after the race because of no cell service.

Peter Luger’s tonight.

 

you won by 30 seconds. Brutal Fancy

 

Staying at the Wyndham. Right near the Garden. Looking for pretty much all the above. Especially a nice cocktail bar to take clients

 

Yeah but you live here, and I have to fly back to shit ass Tennessee tomorrow.

 

Keen's

 

Keens is a good call for dinner. Next door is a solid cocktail bar called The Ragtrader. You are in a bit of a middle ground and could head over to Hudson yards for Zou Zous. There is also a Wolfgang’s close by and Arno’s is a classic Italian spot that is always good but pricey.

 

Not my most knowledgeable area but nice bars to take clients maybe inside Ci Siamo. Osamil and Koloman would be cool

 

Ci Siamo is p good.
