What your Apartment says to Women
By Stacy Liberatore For most guys, the goal for the night is to take a girl back to his place. I’m a bartender. Trust me, I see it all night long as guys try to close the deal. You’re not fooling the sober girl behind the bar. So what happens if you succeed? As a […]
Best Affordable Outdoor and Rooftop Bars in NYC
If a New York City bar is on any list, you can safely assume it is over-priced. Dabble in spring and a rooftop bar, and the cocktail premium rises quicker than the summer temperatures. No one wants to spend $20 on a drink at 230 Fifth Avenue where the drinks are weak and the lines are long. […]
Best NYC Running Clubs
By Anisa Arsenault People who claim to hate running really just hate running alone. As a member of a collegiate track team, I know I would bail on cold long runs or brutal hill workouts without the support of my teammates. A running partner turns an act of one into a team – and that team […]
Read this before you Move to NYC
By Tamika Burgess Moving from Southern California to New York City is a culture shock for even the most well-traveled people. Before I moved to the City, no one gave me any practical advice, like how to know which way is uptown when getting out of the subway downtown – where numbers don’t exist. Instead, […]
Why You’re Single in NYC
By Stacy Liberatore New York City is all about cycles. People move in and out, depending on where they are in life. When you first move to the city, we are young, wild and free. It’s all about going out, mingling, and being single. But as we get older, our way of thinking starts to […]
Popular Cocktail Recipes – Make at Home
By Marlene Garzona Weekends are the best for sleeping in and having brunch. You know that awkward time of the day when you wake up hungry, craving a luxury brunch. But sometimes, the wallet wakes up with a hangover, prevening you from going to your favorite brunch spot with friends. The next time that happens, […]
Hot Spin Instructors – Why We Love Them
By Scott Hyatt I think I am in love with my spin instructor and I don’t think I’m alone. It’s easy to fall in love with those spin instructors. They have the best bodies, they’re confident and they’re reaching us when we are most vulnerable. It’s like they can reach into our subconscious and plant […]
Best NYC Thrift Shops
By Cedric Vanhamme It’s a good time to be a bargain hunter in New York City. Spring cleaning means NYC thrift shops are about to get some of their best fashion donations of the year. New Yorkers are finicky. We want the latest styles and fashion, but we all know, our closets run out of […]
New York – I Love You (music video)
Who knew Kermit the Frog could be so poetic? New York – I love you, but you’re bringing me down like a rat in a cave, with minimum wage. New York – you’re safer and you’re wasting my time….. New York – you’re perfect so don’t change a thing….those are just a few lyrics from […]
JFK to Manhattan – Fastest and Cheapest Way
By Anisa Arsenault There are many ways to get from JFK Airport to Manhattan, and don’t assume a cab is the fastest way to the City. It is definitely the most expensive, but depending on your arrival time, a cab is not always the quickest way. For tourists traveling to New York, there are many […]
