Back by popular demand, this new edition of Richard Laermer's Native's Guide to New York brings nearly 45 percent all-new information (including a guide to New York on-line) and user-friendly new organization and design to Laermer's irresistible formula: a highly opinionated guide to all the greatest things to do in New York, delivered in that inimitable voice the New York Daily News called "satisfyingly snarky--i.e.: real New York." Here are all the things you should have known about New York, and didn't: where to find the best party at 5 a.m. and where to find the best bagels afterwards; where to go on a date in the daytime (and where to find a date while volunteering); the best gardens and the most famous crime sites; the best places to eat alone or to play chess, pool, or video games; and the best places to avoid. Also here is the latest dish on the restaurants, clubs, bars, and theaters that don't get hyped enough, but are worth discovering and rediscovering. Let's just say, Laermer has an eye for what of the hip is here to stay; and what of what's stayed deserves to be hip. As Laermer--public relations dynamo and self-appointed promoter of the wonders of city life--insists: Being bored (or boring!) in New York City is a sin. Get off the movie lines and live a little. New in this edition: organized into "Daytime," "Nighttime," and "Food" sections; smart icons; index by neighborhood; nifty sidebars; and the only available annotated guide to the cyber-city (the best on-line tips about New York).
