    New York City

    Attraction Name
    Top of the Rock
    Description
    One of the best, if not the best, view of the city. Sitting on the 67-69th floors of Rockefeller Center, you can see the entire city from here, including Central Park, the Empire State Building, downtown, the Statue of Liberty and others.

    Quite a breath-taking view of the city. Just be aware if it's windy on the ground, it's going to be insanely windy up top.

    Bar Name
    Grotto Azzurra
    Description
    Nice, quiet bar/restaurant in Little Italy. Nice bartender and tasty (strong) drinks. Fairly expensive, but the environment is nice, and it's close to a lot of other restaurants.

    Bar Name
    Playwright Tavern  (http://www.playwrighttavern.com)
    Description
    Excellent bar with a top and bottom bar. Good beer selection and decent English/Irish food.

    The waitresses are authentic and pleasant.

    I'd recommend getting the Carta Vieja Cabernet. It's quite cheap and you can't find it many places.

    Restaurant Name
    Angelos of Mulberry St
    Description
    My favorite restaurant in Little Italy. Make sure to go early in the evenings because there's normally a wait, though it's absolutely worth it.

    The eggplant rollatine is quite good, and any of specials or items on the menu will be authentic and incredibly good. Entrees cost around $20-$25.

    Connolly Bar & Restaurant
    Description
    Rather average pub/restaurant with a decent sized menu, but pretty average food.

    Good beer selection, though.

    Restaurant Name
    Da Umberto's
    Description
    Fantastic Italian restaurant just off of Union Square. If you blink, you can miss it.

    Try the pasta carbonara for an app for the table. It's unbelievable.

    The villa di capezzana (carmignano 2001) cabernet is one of the better Italian wines that I've had there. Highly recommended.

    Nice little bistro on 7th ave close to Times Square. Try the Pressatas.

    Restaurant Name
    Plataforma Restaurant  (http://www.churrascariaplataforma.com)
    Description
    Amazing Brazilian BBQ restaurant... you know, the kind where they give you a stop/go sign and you eat meat until you can't eat meat anymore. It's expensive, but well worth the money.

    While you're there, try the caiparoska (Kai-pa-ro-ska). It's a very strong, but quite tasty Brazilian drink.
