New York City is for sellouts

But no place ISN'T going to have pros and cons, and some days one side seems longer, and some days the other side does, and that changes in your 20s and again in your 30s and etc.

i bet you could come with a really hilarious comedic article based on this premise

God knows I don't find anything romantic about my neighborhood shithole.

"hilarious" okay sure whatevs.

are people really defending the hilarity and/or satirical premise of that article - shits kinda dumb - new york rulez - lets move on

can't wait for dude to move to LA and read his hilarious take on fake boobs

I don't get the pizza thing. I've been living in NYC since I was 14, and sure, there's okay pizza. But I must be spoiled because it's never blown my mind. It's pizza. Someone explain?

btw your borough may be a wonderland, culinary-wise, but nick's pizza is also found in manhattan

Now schwarma places on the other hand...

oh yeah forgot about that! Does it hold up?

ive never found any good indian food in nyc, but i dont know where to look admittedly

new jersey

india

logic guy, strikes again

I wish I'd had Indian food at JSq when I lived convenient to there, but it wasn't something I had tried up to that point. Silly grul.

indian food in jersey city is SO good.

is there good indian food in bk?

bk isn't known for it the way queens is. the places i've been to (in brooklyn heights, cobble hill, park slope, greenpoint, williamsburg) haven't been great, but that's a very tiny area of the borough.

in the city, tiffin wallah on 28th street is my favorite by far. (well, there's also devi but it's $$$$$.)

do u hav a fav of the 6th street plces

Rox, I'm very fond of a place called Joy Indian on Flatbush Ave around Bergen St or there-ish. In particular I love their korma sauce, it has a golden richness and is thick in a way that makes me think there are actually cashews and stuff in it.

whats the area thats like less than a city block but some ppl call it little india

xpost that sounds awesome laurel

o man i used to gorge on that very korma all the time before i curtailed my delivery habit xp

there is plenty of good pizza here (wisconsin), but sometimes you do have to try to find it.

it's been years at this point since i ate at any of the 6th st places, so my advice probably isn't worth much. banjara and brick lane were much, much better than the rest and also quite a bit more expensive than the others. the latter specializes in "anglo-indian."

Yeah, I have all these awesome recipes for korma and they all require about eleventy hundred different spices and ground cashews and fancy stuff...Joy is the only place where I suspect they may be using the same recipes.

6th st between 1st n 2nd

6th street is probably "little india." there are better restaurants and many more shops in curry hill, which centers around lexington ave from roughly east 24-30th streets.

xposts!

new yorkers incorrigibility at calling things hills lol

thanks yall

i like "heights" more than "hill"

have you seenl "in da heights"?

i like how the one real hill in this part of brooklyn is called "slope"

btw, if anyone wants to go on a dosa field trip, i'm always down.

I want bar b q. i wonder if they still have free bourbon w/ food night.

there are threads about new york everything except new york hotels

no i think there's a hotels thread.

u like bar b q ian - i wasnt feeling it

theres a hotel around the corner from my gfs place that looks pretty nice from the outside called akwaaba mansion

just remembered, i think i go to new york in late march/early april, probably crash w friends in park slope

park heights/hill

I've never stayed in a New York hotel. My parents once rented a room with its own kitchen in a B&B on the UWS. The room was large and comfortable and pretty and the view was amazing and they loved it, but while not extravagantly priced for a whole suite, it's still not exactly an affordable crash pad.

Normally they crash w me and I sleep on the couch lol

I need somewhere to stay in New York City.

Hotels in NYC?
