You’ve got the famous John Lennon memorial, Strawberry Fields in Central Park. You can photograph the Imagine mosaic alone or wait for people to come light candles, play guitars, hold hands, and do their thing.

This article says to think of New York City as photography’s oyster. You wouldn’t want to come without a camera, would you?

Is your dog more city than country? New York cannot be overlooked as one of the most dog friendly cities in the world. You’ll fit right in with the locals who take their dogs everywhere including grocery stores, boutiques and cabs. Of course, their dogs are wearing doggie-sized designer duds and jewelry nicer than anything you’ll ever own. Central Park is of course a must see and Jemmy’s Run in Union Square is THE place to pee and be peed on. Most hotels including Crowne Plaza, Embassy Suites, Westin and the oh-so glamorous Soho Grand will welcome your pets with open paws and complimentary doggie amenities.

Now I’ve been to Angelica Kitchen a number of times. It’s fairly expensive and they only take cash so come prepared. Some of the better meals I’ve had there include the chili and awesome cornbread. The hummus is delicious. I’ve never gotten one of the more dragon bowls, but these might be just the thing if you’re in the mood to go back to basics.

Their drink and desert selection is great too. Their creative fruit juices and teas are always wonderful and the deserts are as good as vegans can get - which means they are pretty good. However, if you’re planning to get some delicious yet horribly unhealthy dairy deserts you’ll need to go somewhere else.

There is a no cell phone policy but the restaurant is often crowded and noisy so it might not make much difference.

Many big spenders prefer Koi where you will need some money and reservations. (212) 921-3330 . The specials are usually interestingly creative.

Many New Yorkers claim that Blue Ribbon Sushi is the best in the city. Its in the village and they have the freshest and best sushi you will ever have. Other New Yorkers are a bit suspicious - they agree that Blue Ribbon is excellent but it depends on when you go because if it is when they are really busy they figure you are a poser or a tourist who won’t know the difference and they do everything in a slipshod way. But if you go after midnight it is much better because they know thay have different kinds of customers then.

Burger Joint in Le Parker Meridian is probably better than Shake Shack. It is excellent but the biggest problem is the line during lunchtime. However in the late afternoon Burger Joint is pretty low stress. Shake Shack has great food, and the hot dogs are almost as good as the hamburgers. Some New Yorkers claim that serious health violations there have them a little bit concerned, but the place is still open and people are still eating the delicious burgers…
