You will find over a dozen Indian restaurants on 6th Street between 1st and 2nd (also known as Indian Row) but my favorite, hands down, is Malai Marke.

Smorgasburg is the largest weekly open-air food market in America, attracting 20,000-30,000 people to Brooklyn each weekend to eat from 100 local vendors—Saturdays on the Williamsburg waterfront and Sundays in beautiful Prospect Park. It launched May 21, 2011, as a spinoff of Brooklyn Flea (founded in 2008), and has since launched dozens of small businesses and attracted millions of visitors. The New York Times dubbed Smorgasburg “The Woodstock of Eating."

Miss Lily’s 7A serves lunch, dinner and weekend brunch, as well as a late night menu to cater to the neighborhood’s buzzing nightlife. The decor takes inspiration from the signature clashing colors and asymmetrical shapes that once defined the East Village’s punk scene, while also evoking an 80’s Jamaican diner vibe. The restaurant’s distinctive facade recaptures the vintage look and feel of the once-popular East Village bodega storefronts that have all but disappeared.

This park has a lot of neighborhood history (see riots of '88) and regularly hosts live music, buskers, outdoor movies and dance festivals. If you like to people watch, this is the place. And if you like to dog watch, it has one of the best dog parks in the country known for it's world famous Halloween Dog Parade.

A block long and a block wide and just a short walk from the Hudson River in the area of Manhattan known as the Meatpacking District, Chelsea Market has become in just fifteen years one of the greatest indoor food halls of the world, with more than thirty-five vendors purveying everything from soup to nuts, wine to coffee, cheese to cheesecake. Attracting 6 million national and international visitors annually, it is one of the most trafficked, and written-about, destinations of any kind in New York City. Chelsea Market is a neighborhood market with a global perspective.

Arts & Culture

A uniquely, immersive theater production. If there's a door, try to open it. If there's a character passing by you, follow her. You go into it unsure what to expect. You pass through dark hallways, find yourself in the middle of a lover's quarrel, wander into hidden rooms, encounter a visibly disturbed naked woman shivering in a bathtub. It's so believable—and the line between what is real and what is theater is so blurred—it's like an intricate acid trip, forcing you to suspend all disbelief without even realizing it. Throughout the course of three hours, you begin to morph into an actor. Sleep No More in its purest form has a reputation for being something truly special, inexplicable even.

Sightseeing

You haven't experienced downtown Manhattan until you've walked (or biked) across the famous Brooklyn Bridge. Completed in 1883, it connects Manhattan and Brooklyn and it has a main span of 1,595.5 feet (486.3 m). It was the first steel-wire suspension bridge ever constructed.

A lesser known, but just as important, bridge connecting Dumbo and Manhattan. I like to bike across this bridge because it connects to protected bike lanes once you're back in the city. Also, unlike the Brooklyn Bridge, pedestrians and cyclists are separated so you can keep a steady pace. Stop midway to collect your thoughts or take some selfies against the East River backdrop.

The High Line (also known as High Line Park) is a 1.45-mile-long (2.33 km) elevated linear park, greenway and rail trail. It was created on a former New York Central Railroad spur on the west side of Manhattan. Led by the landscape architecture firm of James Corner Field Operations, the abandoned spur has been redesigned as a "living system" drawing from multiple disciplines which include landscape architecture, urban design, and ecology. Since opening in 2009, the High Line has become an icon of contemporary landscape architecture.

Ah, this bridge. A wide, wistful overpass with an iconography all of its own. Caked in graffiti that evokes the tries of hapless generations, framed in faded red. This is the romantic road you ride in order to wink at your fellow cyclists as you lock eyes and cross paths with them. Affirmations are ever in your path—like “You Got This” decals on the cement, and smiles from handsome passersby as you chug your legs up the hefty incline in either direction.
