  1. i'll be in nyc from 12/5 to 12/13. planning on finding a place through airbnb.

     

    if anyone wants to give me the low down on rooftop bars with a great view, menswear stores, hole in the wall places to eat.

     

    basically anything would help. thanks guys. 

  2. i'd recommend blue star doughnuts for sure. it's right next to lardo. 

     

    also, the pastrami is A++ at K&Z but if you've got the time/desire, def try the thanksgiving sandwich. 

    I had the pastrami last time I was there. So good. I might be able to hit K&Z twice. 

     

    I'll probably skip Gruner, tbh. Looks like it might be a bit too formal and I'm going to be going solo. 

  3. I'll be in Portland later this month for two days, one night. Staying at the Ace Hotel again.

     

    Tasty and Alder 

    Clyde Commons

    Kenny and Zuke’s Delicatessen

    Gruner

    Lardo

     

    Any other suggestions on places to eat within walking distance of Ace? Food cart suggestions work too.

  4. I want a new fragrance for the new year and have heard nothing but great things about CDG. Only problem is there are so many to choose from. Wonderwood seems to be a favorite. Anyone willing to order a top five with a quick breakdown? I'm looking for something I can wear year-round, nothing too strong. 

  5. This might be a little late for you, but if you're staying at the Ace, Tasty and Alder for breakfast, Lardo for lunch and Gruner for dinner are the 3-block max best spots for sure.  Heavy hitters on all of those menus if you like meat, butter, and cheese.

    Yeah, I left on Tuesday night but I appreciate the suggestions and I'll definitely give those places a try next time (hopefully soon).

  6. I'll be in Chi first week of Oct. More than likely staying in the Lakeview area. Any recommendations for bars, restaurants, must eats/sees in general? I'll be going with a good sized group so trying to get as many ideas as possible.

    I heard Longman and Eagle is damn good. If you want to do a little shopping, Haberdashmen and Apartment Number 9 are worth a look.
