Hey I was just wondering if there's anywhere you would recommend visiting in New York apart from the usual tourist attractions, places that are a bit different?

This is actually something i wanted to write a blog post on but I wasn’t sure if people would be interested in. Is it something you think you would read if I put it up?#1 One hack is to go to rooftop bars instead of dishing out 30-40 dollars for One World Observatory or Top Of The Rock. Now two years ago when I was here for a summer there wasn’t the same options for rooftops as there are now - but since this May the two most incredible ones have opened up. You have to go to Public Hotels and The William Vale, Honestly, the views from them both are as breathtaking as any you’ll pay for (plus you can enjoy a drink at the same time - the music on Public rooftop really adds to the experience too) #2 Download the apps Pulsd + Eventbrite. Also I frequently check Guest of a Guests list of events (some are ticketed and invite only, others are free to attend) and there’s DoNYC and Time Out NYC of course. Refining your search on Facebook for events in your area is a good idea too. I do it at least once a week. Oh, and I frequently check fomofeed and artworldnyc on instagram - they show the unconventionally tourist side to New York for sure. #3 Working out in the city is a great way to see it - and the good news is you can be thrifty about it too. I’ve gone to free running clubs in the Samsung flagship store and the A DAY pop up on Elizabeth St. There’s also free kayacking on the Hudson river on Sundays (don’t be like me and go hungover)#4 SMORGASBURG. It’s actually a bit touristy but a MUST. There are a few different locations but I urge you to go to the one in Williamsburg. Not to excite you too much but they have spaghetti doughnuts. If you’re into fares and markets I strongly recommend Hester St Fare in the Lower East Side. It doesn’t get the recognotion it deserves really! If you’re there then 100% check out Manic Jane - the best vintage stall of them all. #5 If you’re a movie buff like me then you’re in luck. One of my favourite spots in New York is in Bushwick - It’s called Syndicated. They screen old school movies from the likes of Baz Luhrman and Wes Anderson for $4 and any new release is $7 (which is half of what you would pay in any theater in Manhattan) It’s all in a really precious art deco setting and waitresses come in and out if you want to order wine (or even classic cheese royal) during the screening. Nitehawk just off Bedford Ave is a similar concept - they also do brunches on a Saturday morning where you can eat bowls of cereal and watch screenings of your all time favourite childhood films. If you download the apps I suggested too you’ll see the listings of free outdoor movies that run up until September. Hotels such as Hotel Hugo and Arlo SoHo do weekly screenings on their rooftops too.

#5 JAZZ. The Jazz scene here is something I was very set on exploring. So far I’ve only gone places with no cover (because hello, who is in their early 20s in this city with disposable income for tables at jazz bars) The Roxy hotel have free jazz 1-2 nights a week, it’s very intimate and feels like something from an Ernest Hemmingway book. Arthurs Tavern in the West Village is an old classic - the staff are so rude and the place is teeny but you have to go if you want to see real jazz.

#6 I struggle a little bit with the amount of parties there are on the weekend. Like it seems a though people my age literally do nothing else sometimes! But i have to give them credit - there is no better place to go out than here. All day parties you can choose from are the likes of Mr Sundays, MoMa PS1 on a Saturday and Tiki Disco on Sundays. These are all in Brooklyn and Queens. The party scene in Manhattan isn’t as fun to be honest - unless you like wearing heels and sitting around a table of girls on their phones drinking vodka sodas. #6 Don’t be ripped off on food while you’re here and experience New York through eating where the locals eat. My personal favorites (and also dirt cheap places) are: Cafe Habana - For the famous corn and Cuban sandwich. This is my favourite spot in all of the city - especially the Brooklyn location. Lovely Day - It’s Asian food in a cosy English setting, thats’s the only way I know how to describe it. Please get the coconut curry with udon noodles if you’re there!Pause Cafe - Out of everywhere in NYC i’ve come back here the most for the generous portions of acai bowls. Prince St Pizza + Joes - You can’t come to this city and not eat a fantastic slice of ‘zaaaa. San Marzano - Skip the craziness of Little Italy and venture into the East Village for fresh-as-you-can-get pasta. And the best news is a pitcher of sangria is 15 bucks and all pasta dishes come in at 9. It’s always packed there but worth the half hour wait, trust me. Vanessas Dumplings - 1.50 pan fried dumplings. Yes, you heard me. We lived off this famous spot when we first came over. There are a few locations but go to the one just off Broome St if you’re going. Wo Hop on Mulberry St is also somewhere to hit up if you’re interested in experiencing authentic chinese food at a cheap price (i may or may not have two t-shirts from there, just sayin’) Dudleys + Rubys - Okay I’m done with the food after this but you have to give these Australian restaurants a go. I can’t express how happy Dudleys makes me. They are all rounders - amazing for brunch, dinner, drinks, coffee - EVERYTHING.

Okay I could keep writing these suggestions but I have to stop somewhere! I hope this helped and you enjoy your trip here xx

If you saw my last 3 Day Challenge then you follow the similar meditation or positive self affirmation, first thing in the morning.

Food and daily routine recommendations -eat Organic and seasonal fruits and veggies only. They are not just healthier but also economical than non seasonal fruits and veggies. -Timely eating- make sure to eat all 3 meals and 2 snacks exactly at the same time everyday. Decide your schedule before you start and stick to it. -Sleep 7 hours a day -Plan and buy everything for these 3 Days in advance. You can follow what I’m eating or something similar. Like, if you can’t make edamame beans, use sprouts, instead of quinoa, use brown rice -Drink warm water after every meal. -12glasses of water a day is a must. -Cut down on salt where ever possible(like nuts, corn, etc tastes pretty good even unsalted.) -the timing of your meals. This is the most important step. replace oil with clarified butter or ghee. . Following are my three days meal plans three breakfast three lunches and dinners with two snacks between every meals.

Weigh yourself on day one early morning empty stomach and again on day 4 morning.

First thing in the morning I have is, boiled Ajwain 1/2 tsp (caraway seeds)and Methi seeds, 2 pinches, that I soaked in water from the previous night. As an alternate option, You can have Apple cider Vinegar (see my old 3 day challenge for quantity reference)
