Secret New York: The Unique Guidebook to New York's Hidden Sites, Sounds, & Tastes (Secret Guide series) [Paperback]

Robert Sietsema (Author)

Book Description

Series: Secret Guide series | Publication Date: March 1, 1999

There are dozens of published guides to New York City, nearly all of them covering the same well-trodden territory of pricey restaurants, major hotels, and shopping at pick-your-pocket prices. Here's a tourist guide with a difference. New York insider and Village Voice columnist Robert Sietsema has assembled a topic-focused book. Learn where to find a hidden Indian cave right on the island of Manhattan, where to get a delicious, multicourse meal for less than five dollars, how to plug in to the Japanese underground, where to find the best bagel and egg cream, where to find the rock clubs that the hipsters frequent, and where to rent a bicycle to tour the city and where to ride it.
