2. INTRODUCTION
Are your friends finally visiting you in the big NY? If
you want to show them the time of their live, but
have no idea where to start, don’t panic.
Your guests need to have the best trip ever and you
need to make it look like you actually know what’s
going on around here. So below are the best places
to hear live music, go dancing, eat dumplings, imbibe,
and give them something to write about. Some are
classic, some are obscure, and not one involves going
to Time Square.

VISIT THE LOCAL
SHOPS
One of NYC’s great assets is its many options for
escape; buses running round-trip service to nearby
ski resorts aren’t hard to find, and well-loved resorts
like Belleayre, Thunder Ridge, and Windham are all
just a few hours ride away.
5. ICE SKATING New York’s most iconic winter image may be ice
skaters gliding around the rink at Rockefeller
Center. This is iconic and inexpensive and is
essential to the tourist experience.

6. DINE DIY-STYLE
WITH KOREAN
BARBECUE
Summer isn’t the only time to gather around a
sizzling grill, and KBBQ is way more fun than a
typical restaurant. K-town is the quintessential
locale and is always a safe bet, but there is plenty of
outer-borough sports worth a trip. Snag a post-meal
private karaoke room at Gowanus’ Insa, polish off
some char-grilled Kalbi at Mapo Korean BBQ in
Murray Hill, or get your fix any 24/7 at Miss Korea
Barbecue.
7. Tourist go crazy for those sweeping skyline views,
and even real New Yorkers appreciate the genuine
pleasure of a cocktail on a covered rooftop on a cold
winter’s day. You might pay $15 for a so-so drink,
but the Instagram will be priceless. Once you score
a seat, it’ll be hard to give up, so drink slow.
