Great tacos inside of Chelsea Market. If you want to splurge, order a quesa taco off their secret menu- the taco shell is made of pan-grilled cheese and it is overly greasy and decadent! This may be too much cheese for some people, but everyone loves their classic tacos! The line gets long around lunch and dinner time, but moves quickly and is worth the wait

Try dumplings from several dumpling shops in Chinatown. Around 5 dumplings for $1, you can't beat the price and they are delicious! I love to go with friends and get an order of dumplings from 2-3 different shops to find our favorites!

Sightseeing
Really is an incredible sight! Fun to walk across if there is nice weather or to view from across the bridge at the Brooklyn Bridge Park. Because of the crowds, riding a bike across is difficult, so I would recommend walking.

Great views of the city! I prefer this view over that from the top of the Empire state building because the ESB is in the view from Top of the Rock
