—have you spent enough time in manhattan to have any recommendations for shit to try/do?
—mmm
—i've spent less than 24 hours of my life in new york city
Ohhhhhhhhhh shit!
My buddy Jose inspired and worked on a documentary that's premiering at the Tribeca Film Festival. As I'm being forced to burn a month of vacation days this year, I accepted his invitation.
Of course, if he invited me, then he probably invited our high school principal too, as well as some high school classmates who I have zero interest in ever seeing again.
He is (begrudgingly) my constant.
I'm compiling a list of food to try while I'm in town. So far I have:
1. Shake Shack
and
2. whatever this is
K! Pizzacone…
• "VULVA Original is the irresistible smell that exudes from a sensual vagina."
• Science Fiction Trivia Challenge: John Hodgman vs Patton Oswalt
If you're going to Shake Shack you should also try Paul's on St. Marks and 2nd Avenue. Personally, I think it's the better burger – but they're both pretty great.
I recommend Pommes Frites, 2nd Ave. & 7th. Belgian fries with like 30 kinds of sauces, primarily mayo-based. Also, Roti Roll at 109th & Amsterdam is amazing, but there's not much reason to go up there unless you live in the area.
I second my doppelganger's recommendation for Pommes Frites.
San Loco across the street has pretty great tacos too.
