New York City Reviews

Ever since I was a teenager I had always wanted to go to New York City.

I've been to New York three times now - And each time has been very special, and very different. The first time i visited, the place was very intimidating, the heat generated by the traffic, buildings and September sunshine was oppressive, and the noise and pace of everything took much getting used too. This was back in 1999 - The ...  Read the complete review

I've just walked three blocks across the spine of Manhattan, and I've been told by four different hot dog vendors they offer the best hot dogs in town. How can I cope with all that choice?

The little girl behind me is getting more and more exasperated. From her persistent grumbles I gather that she is cold, bored, hungry, thirsty and tired. She is of course too young to understand the tragedy of the nothingness she is so disinterested in viewing. I was due to meet my friends back at the hotel several hours ...  Read the complete review
