the 2nd week in October, likely for 3 nights. A few questions:
1) I'm relatively set on eating at Buddakan and Strip House for 2 of the nights (3rd still undecided). I want to have drinks prior at a good cocktail place; I've see Pegu Club, Little Branch, Milk & Honey, PDT, Ava Lounge, etc. thrown around as good spots... I have yet to correlate addresses to see what's close by to those places. What is highly recommended and within walking distance? I was leaning towards Pegu and Little Branch based on what I've read, but the novelty of M&H or PDT could be fun to try. Definitely want to avoid anything too sceney/pretentious, does M&H/PDT fall into that category? Would be happy to meet up with any SFers for drinks.
2) Guggenheim or MoMA? Leaning towards the Guggenheim based the variety of periods represented, and I've always wanted to check out the building.
3) Are there any decent sales expected that week/month? I am unfortunately doubting it...
4) Anything going on that week event-wise worth checking out? I've been hitting the NYT/NYMag event calendar but don't see much so far.
5) Wanted to walk around some of the areas I haven't seen much before... Chinatown, LI, Greenwich, West Village, Washington Sq... since I can't devote but so much time to that, what would you recommend for perhaps 2 areas?
6) Thinking about walking the Brooklyn Bridge for lunch at Grimaldi's... but I keep reading it's really not worth it. Thoughts?
