One of my goals for 2011 was to have at least 50 new experiences here in NYC. They could be restaurants, bars, performances or an activity.
I thoroughly enjoyed the challenge, so I didn’t just stop at 50, but made it all the way to 101. The full list of experiences, complete with ratings and one-line reviews, can be found here.
- Park Here. Indoor Park. Really cool idea, sadly only temporary.
- Pio Pio. Peruvian Restaurant. Incredible Chicken.
- Night Court. Judicial System. Very unique, interesting reflection on society.
- Book of Mormon. Broadway Musical. Incredible show, hilarious, even standing room only seats are great (and cheap).
- Sleep No More. Interactive Theater. Incredible experience and very unique. I want to go back.
- Down & Derby Disco. Roller Skating. Awesomely good time. $5 entry, $5 skates. Only happens once every few months in the basement of a hotel.
- HanGawi. Vegetarian Restaurant. Very cool ambiance, delicious korean vegetarian, more expensive.
- TV on the Radio. Concert. The venue (Williamsburg Park) was pretty cool and the band solid, but pretty expensive.
- Meatball Shop. Meatball Restaurant. Quite delicious, a new favorite. Tried all of the sliders.
- Cafe Lalo. Restaurant / Desserts. Amazing dessert place, a little expensive but quiet delicious.
