The High Line is a park built on a historic, elevated freight line. A lovely walk on a summer day!
The Dead Rabbit Grocery and Grog
30 Water Street, New York, NY 10004, (646) 422-7906
This deceptively large Irish pub is arguably the world's greatest! We've had the best cocktails and some of the best times here. Beware the Irish coffees!
The Metropolitan Museum of Art
1000 5th Avenue, New York, NY 10028, (212) 535-7710
Possibly the greatest art museum in the country. Don't feel pressured to do it all, it's actually impossible.
American Museum of Natural History
New York, NY 10024, (212) 769-5100
Not to be confused for the Met. This is Night at the Museum, but in the daytime. And less Ben Stiller.
Real Kung Fu Little Steamed Buns Ramen
811 8th Ave, New York, NY 10019, (917) 388-2555
The name is silly but these buns DON'T MESS AROUND.
Eataly NYC Flatiron
200 5th Avenue, New York, NY 10010, (212) 229-2560

It's the Seinfeld diner! Excellent food.

Bryant Park
New York, NY 10018, (212) 768-4242
Midtown park behind the New York Public Library (also a cool place to visit). Features chess, ping pong, a bar, and a large lawn. Steps from Times Square and Grand Central Station.
Grand Central Terminal
89 East 42nd Street, New York, NY 10017, (212) 340-2583
Check out the shops, restaurants, constellation ceiling, and the famous clock. Avoid rush hour. You'll likely be run over and side-eyed.

West Village jazz bar!
Tiffany & Co.
727 5th Avenue, New York, NY 10022, (212) 755-8000
The place I definitely did NOT buy Ariel's ring. Heard it was a breakfast spot, but you have to bring your own.
