one of my fave places - awesome menu, huge local soho hangout - been going here for more than 15 years. they serve full menu and dining at bar and tables until 4am. This is where Bobby Flay, Vincent Gallo etc, NYC real crowd goes but is totally down to earth. Eat dinner at the bar anytime and you'll encounter a good mix of people

Arts & Culture
This is my favorite museum oin the city - it's Henry Frick's old personal mansion so architecturally it's incredible and fascinating/part of NYC history. This has his entire private collection which has some of the most famous pieces of art ever created
