Re: Ten things not to do in New York City/alternatives - a list
As for the Tavern on the Green alternative, The River Cafe might offer a nice view, but one of the signature assets of New York is its wide variety of either very New York style restaurants and ethnic choices. Go dine on Vietnamese or Turkish, or go grab a pastrami sandwich at Katz's. The River Cafe offers what every other water-bordering city offers, and you can get it without paying a fortune for a meal.
The writer is a psycho deluxe for speaking bad about the hot dog carts. Even when I hated hot dogs, I would eat dirty water hot dogs. They offer a great bargain when its that magic hour between lunch and dinner, and you need something quick to tide you over while walking, which you do a lot of in New York.
I agree with HG about skipping the Empire State Bldg and Macy's. That's just blasphemy. Lord & Taylor is not nearly as iconic as Macy's is, and icons are a big part of tourism.
The Central Park, Hell's Kitchen, meatpacking district, and Upright Citizen's Brigade points are money. I took my ex to the UCB, and it was a frickin riot.

| I agree, the writer is a MORON, most of the stuff on that list is fine, with some exceptions, but to attack ALL hot dog carts!!! 
The BEST dogs are Sabrett's from a cart on or AFTER Tuesday, never want to eat them on a Monday, they MAY be left over from FRIDAY!!
We could make a list of thousands of things to do in NYC, that all of us would agree on was worth it, and we could probably do the same on things to avoid.
The thing is, we would all have different lists, with many similarities on them and many differences.
That is the great thing about NYC, EVERYONE can find something they will like to do here, and things they hated doing here.
