Shopping in New York

If shopping is what you’re after, New York will deliver. The most famous shopping opportunities in New York is without a doubt Fifth Avenue and Macy’s. Fifth Avenue is a major thoroughfare in Manhattan. It reaches from Washington Square Park in the north, to 143rd Street in Harlem in the west. Fifth Avenue is actually considered one of the most expensive and elegant streets in the entire world. For most of us, Fifth Avenue is somewhere to take a look, before doing the actual shopping somewhere else. Check out Macys, Bloomingdales and Lord and Taylor for some of the best deals you’ll ever get, even on the luxury brands. If you stroll down to Broadway at the lower Manhattan end, you are bound to discover some fantastic stores there as well.

Food

This city has some absolute “must haves” when it comes to street food. Pastrami is probably as “New York” as it gets. A pastrami sandwich, complete with a pile of hand-carved beef pastrami, yellow mustard, and freshly baked rye bread, is a must eat. Even if you only eat this one time in your life, just give it a go. The pastrami sandwich perfect representation of the flavour of New York. If you don’t eat meat, there is another way to taste the New York flavour. Try some swanky vegan comfort food at Modern Love Brooklyn. They serve up a range of sumptuous dishes such as waffles with seitan chicken and ice-cream, pies and puddings and some of the best-looking vegan burgers you have ever seen. You don’t have to be vegan to try this place, because the taste is marvellous. Take it from a meat-eater.

Hidden gems in NYC that will have you in awe

We’ll start with The Old City Hall Subway Stop. This was once an energetic station but was shut down in 1945 mostly due to the low amount of traffic it received. Still, it’s a beautiful place designed by the same architects that designed the Cathedral of St. John the Devine. During the ‘City Beautiful’ movement at the turn of the last century, New York City’s first subway station opened to the public. Although this beautiful station is not open to the public, guided tours are provided periodically. -Or use our little secret and catch a sneak peek by staying on the 6 train after its final stop. Stop number two is a hidden Tropical Rainforest From Central Park to the New York Botanical Garden and quite a few small public parks in between, it’s easy to find a patch of green when you’re tired of the concrete jungle. Finding somewhere private is a lot more difficult. Still, hidden inside a Midtown Manhattan office block is a tiny tropical rainforest Large glass windows act like a greenhouse, working with a system that creates steam condensation from rainwater to create a humid mini ecosystem. This keeps the tropical plants lush and green, even though none of the plants are naturally geographically related to this part of the world.
