so you find yourself in the greatest city in the entire world with over
24,000 restaurants in the city how do you decide where to eat in this video my
goal is simple I am proudly a partner with Google
Chromebook to show you the most unique spots to eat while in New York travel
and culinary icon Anthony Bourdain once said when traveling to New York ask
yourself what do they do that is unique to the city that they do in arguably
better than anybody else in the entire world and that is bagels that is right
bagels the East Village is known for its nightlife old-school bars vintage shops
and classic cafes the East Village embodies old-school New York I'm here at
Tompkins Square bagels on Avenue a Tompkins in my opinion is the best bagel
spa in the whole city the owner calls Tompkins
truly a love-letter to the East Village its first and foremost a neighborhood
shop you know the kind of store where no one can ever feel out of place Tompkins
like a few places in the East Village only takes cash which isn't really a big
deal there's ATMs on almost every single block so I have here the world-famous
everything at bagel toasted with cream cheese and lox this is my New York City
classic when I'm home in the city this is my comfort food and this is the
official taste it's the perfect balance of add-ons but
yet it's crisp because it's kösem it's one of the reasons why these bagels
taste so good is the fact that they are made right here on location at Tompkins
so legend has it that the reason why the bagels in New York tastes so damn good
is because Manhattan has some of the best tap water in the entire world it's
the perfect time to check emails also to organize my schedule with my business
partner Mike for the upcoming day week and even months in advance planning my
travels Tompkins Square bagels is located at 165 Avenue A every location
in this video will be shared down below in my saved locations in Google Maps so
classic New York is great but for lunch we're gonna check out a
bit more of a novelty location however if you're on a diet you might want to
skip this one although it might be worth ordering just for the Instagram travel
pro tip look at the tagged photos of the places you want to eat at before
deciding what to order and also you can check out Yelp for a more official
review of the locations so now I'm on the streets of Soho Soho is known for
its world-class shopping historic cast-iron lofts and now obscenely
massive milkshakes our next stop on this NYC food tour is at black cap on Bruce
Street now blacktop calls itself modernized for the Instagram age and
they couldn't be more spot on they are known for their world-famous massive
crazy milkshakes and burgers we have right here the cotton that candy shake
at black tap in Soho now this place isn't anything new it's been around for
about like two years or so but I've never been I feel like it's a novelty
thing that you just you have to order in New York and you gotta just go you got
to just put your face and eat it you have whipped cream underneath like I'm
not even after ice cream yet it's con candy whipped cream rock candies so we
have a bubble gum flavor actual ice cream for the milkshake
and as you can see it's already melting it's a hot summer day here in New York
City it's mid-august this is the perfect tree if you primarily come and get this
for the gram for the YouTube video they're a bit pricey just about $18 but
100% worth it for the experience so we're in Soho just going around and I
wasn't even really planning on putting this in the video but we're at Dominique
Ansel bakery I've never been here Mike's like oh man this is a
world-famous bakery they're known for their cronuts their pastries that's what
I mean about New York being the food capital you can just be walking around
and come across a world-famous place and not even realize that this just goes to
show you that in New York there's a surprise on every corner you know it's
the worst you get all nice and dressed up for a night out on the town only to
arrive at the restaurants and realize all the seats are taken
that's why my pro tip is the book in advance with an app like opened a wall a
few minutes to book in advance goes a long way or if you prefer a night in at
your hotel or your Airbnb you can always use seamless and have incredible food
come right to your doorstep but for dinner tonight we are going out
for a night out on the town I recommend the West Village or Soho as
far as neighborhoods for one specific reason amazing outdoor seating and
tonight I chose a cozy French restaurant that I was just passing by called Bistro
lay I mean there's absolutely nothing like having a meal right on the streets
in New York on a beautiful summer night not too hot not too cool yet just people
watching on the sidewalk good company and amazing food 24,000 restaurants this
is my first time eating here I have some salmon first bite at a brand new
restaurant
like a lemon zest to it at the end I had that little after kick 10 out of 10
would recommend it leave that review on Yelp and my number one tip for finding
good places to eat in the city simply walk around with an appetite and eat
