Food Scene
August is around the corner and has great brunch (until 4pm) on the weekends...there's greenhouse seating in the back, great coffee too. Get any of the wood oven baked eggs--the Andalusian is the best

My favorite pizza in NY, about a 15 min walk. Lots of famous people on the wall for you to take embarrassing photos in front of it (but maybe don't). Grab a plain slice and walk to Washington Sq Park.

If you've never been to a BYOB restaurant and you don't eat french often, sitting outside here is lovely on a summer night. Pick up wine around the corner and loiter in the hushed line on the curb.

Everything Else
If you've heard of Magnolia and insist on waiting in line to try it, skip the cupcakes and get the banana pudding. It's so addictive they have punch cards for it.

If you've uttered 'I love the city but I could never raise kids here?' even once this weekend, go see how it's done. Prepare to be out-cooled by 20 kids under the age of 5. Don't be weird and stuff.

If you've never been to a record store but want to pick up something specific to romance the wifey, take a five minute walk to Bleecker Street. It's big and unintimidating.

The best pizza in a 10min radius. Get a slice of the nonna maria - crushed san marzano tomatoes and just-salty-enough mozzarella with little crinkles of basil. Also, they deliver to my apt.

Rite Aid
534 Hudson StJust a regular old Rite-Aid, always there when you need it.
The line-ups here will always have people you've seen on TV, and you never know who will pop in to try out new material. Make a res on their site a day before, and check in before you get in line.

Great place to be on a pretty day. Bring a blanket and a book, lay in the grass, listen to the musicians. There are usually performances in the center, and a guy who does sand art underneath the arch.

Shopping
If you like music but not mine--kick rocks--and then head to Rebel Rebel. It's tinier than my apartment and more cluttered than my grandma's attic, but just as much fun to dig through.

Drinks & Nightlife
Fat Cat is my favorite spot in the hood. If you want to experience a random sampling of New Yorkers without feeling conspicuous, go listen to live jazz while you play shuffleboard and drink $3 PBR.

A few warnings come with this tiny little jazz club: Bring a $20 to get in. If you sit, shut up and enjoy the music. If you stand in back, don't engage with the crazy old dudes w/no brain cells left.
