So of course if youāve never been, do the touristy things too like Times Square and the monuments and be unapologetic about it, donāt let anyone judge you for having fun just because youāre a tourist. Also if you do the Empire State Building it tends to be cheaper after sunset, there are no lines, and itās nice to be up with way fewer people. Oh my gosh and I love the Brooklyn bridge actually, walk the Brooklyn bridge.
For pizza, I posted about it recently but LāIndustrie has some great pizza by the slice, they have two locations now. My favorite slice is the fig jam and baconš¤¤ For the swifties the newer location is not too far from Cornelia stš
In the fidi area thereās a small coffee shop, Simpl, on Nassau. Itās originally a Ukrainian brand so they have a Ukrainian drink called a raf, or they have these amazing strawberry lattes and matchas. The most important part though? GET A CARDAMOM BUN. I became obsessed with them the first time I had one.
Go to the Met. Literally one of my favorite museums, itās so big and thereās so much to see, there are new exhibits throughout the year.
The Brooklyn botanical garden is pretty and there are plenty of free days throughout the year.
Chinatown!!! I am a huge fan of Chinatown in NYC, so many good food options (Iām very food motivated when I travel if you havenāt noticed lol). There are dim sum places, ice cream, boba, so many things all next door to each other. Honestly, you could also find plenty of cheap souvenirs for people lol.
