New York, New Yoooooooooooork

Rate this Entry
I think this is the City That Never Sleeps, right??

EXiku and I are here for a week for a friend's wedding, and while we're going to be pretty busy, we're trying to see what we can see of the big city, like the proper tourists we are.

Already I introduced EXiku to the deliciousness of Philly cheese steak, and she's had the unique North American experience with street evangelists, and we also had some White Castle. All this is just from a bit of walking and bussing around from our hotel here in Jamaica.

What do you people of BL reccomend we see, eat or do? Also, if there are any NYC BLers around who want to hang out, we might be able to say hi!

One bad thing though: our baggage got lost on the way in, so we don't know if we'll get our stuff back and we had to spend most of our money on clothes. :/

    I thought baggage going missing was some sort of an urban legend or an older stereotype/joke kinda thing. Sucks!

    Uhh...

    Empire State Building, Central Plaza, Times Square, Nintendo World (if that's interesting).

    They probably have a Hard Rock Cafe too. Ugh, it's been ages since I sightsaw in NYC.

    Radio City is also a classic eatery.

    I think it's by Times Square.

    Yeah. I live in NY. In Jamaica actually. How are you liking the place? :D

    Spinnnn, these burgers are actually pretty good and I like how tiny they are.

    Jamaica is... interesting. I have gone a whole day without seeing another white person, this is something new to me. Also it's really dirty everywhere.

    For eating or something, I remember this place. Something to do with "Bubba Gump" or something, it was years ago. I don't remember if it was actually good, I just remember it.

    Also, there's Broadway musicals and stuff if you're into that sorta thing.

    There's a Jamaica in New York?

    You people crazy :V

    I assume street evangelists there are worse than those back here?

    Go to Wo Hop, in Chinatown, 17 Mott St. It's an excellent restaurant. Another excellent place is Menchanko-tei, which is on... East 45th between 3rd and Lexington. Really amazing ramen.


    Go to the Museum of Modern Art. And GO TO THE BRONX ZOO, FFS.

    also

    This is EXiku commandeering Five's precious Moto X...White Castle was nothing special. I don't know what kind of spell they cast on Five...but their small size was cute. And...omg...Princess. Her name was actually Princess...at White CASTLE!

    White Castle burgers?

    And you thought they were good?

    Man either there's something wrong with me or something wrong with you, and while there's a lot of stuff wrong with me I think I'm pretty justified in calling those burgers Not Good. They are cheap and small, yes, and you get what you pay for. I took one bite and went Nope!

    Well, I mostly agree with this sentiment, although it took around 15 minutes for my body to voice it's disapproval.

    Seriously dood though, there are better fast food chains out there...

    Haha~ White Castle doesn't exist on the West Coast suckers! I don't have to deal with that crap.

    what's white castle
  18. Five_X's Avatar
    We went to the White Castle near 179th street station and it was pretty good, okay? :/

    Yesterday was the wedding, in a little enclave on the High Line in Manhattan, which was really pretty. We could see a statue in the harbour in the distance! Then we went to Union Square to visit the biggest Barnes & Nobles in the world.

    Sadly, it's a bit muggy today!
