  1. Rudy's is most definitely NOT a locals place. It's like 2 blocks from the Port Authority Bus Terminal. Pre-pandemic when taking the Greyhound Bus to/from Detroit made sense it would be the last place I went to before getting on the bus.

  2. What a fun coincidence! On my first visit to New York (around new years 2013/14) me and my friends stayed in Greenpoint, and we loved it. For my second visit half a year later, I stayed in Long Island City. Didn't actually get to know the area as much as I usaually like to do, for some reason, but it was a nice room and I also stumbled upon a late night shooting of an episode of The Good Wife, I believe. Only know that because I recognized the back head of Taye Diggs and could figure the show out after that.

    Good times.

    Anyways. I'm returning again this March, for the first time since 2017 and the sixth time in total. Gonna prepare myself by checking out some of your recent videos. You and Barr's. Good folks.

  3. McCarren Park Pool? Srsly? You're telling tourists to visit McCarren pool? Well, they'll probably get the authentic NYC experience there…like a beat-down from local NYC thugs.

  4. You miss soooo much of Brooklyn by just visiting Greenpoint, DUMBO or the gentrified "trendy" places. Go see Greenwood Cemetery, Coney Island, John Paul Jones Park (aka Cannonball Park), Brooklyn Heights, Prospect Park, Shore Road Park, Bliss Park or NYC Transit Museum. There's good eats too in neighborhoods like Bay Ridge, Bensonhurst, The Heights and Park Slope. These neighborhoods have one other asset. They're relatively safe from muggers, perverts, vagabonds and pyscho's. Also no lions-n-tigers-n-bears oh my.

  5. Give it up for GREENPOINT! The BEST neighborhood in NYC!

    Don't miss Record Grouch, The Thing and Franklin St. Great Stuff!!! Paulie G's too!!! Jungle Cafe has the best vegan buffets ever!!!
