Tony Luke's is my favorite, plus they have it in the Phillies stadium, which is awesome.

I've always wanted to travel to Philly too just for a real Philly at least. Boston as well.

Ok, you know I think you're good people. And I love the city I live in. But I respectfully disagree.

Philly is a dump unless you're going to a sports game or running up the art museum steps like Rocky.

Fair enough. I love Boston, couldn't recommend it highly enough to people. But townies here will never understand that it is in fact the little brother of New York City.

At least for once, I didn't have to shovel snow after a winter storm. Hope you made it through Jonas alright.

Haha Wawa is the best. And nothing beats Chickies and Pete's crab fries.

OP, listen to this cat. He knows what he's talking about, and if you are looking for a flight, he's your man.

Don't care for any of those teams. Been going to Yankees games with my dad since I was a child.

I actually spent the past few days trying to figure out a way for my dad to get back from dallas to nyc after all this snow. Saturday flight to laguardia cancelled, sunday to newark cancelled, found him a flight to philly for today by some luck late last night. So OP my advice is wait until springtime as to avoid potential snowstorms and if you need a flight let me know

New York is a shithole that smells like bourbon street on ash wednesday.

The whole city stinks of piss and old mop water.

I have never been more disappointed arriving at a destination.

No actually.

Talked to a few arabic guys who ran a deli and made excellent cupcakes. Bought a cup cake at one stop, og rays pizza, some fois gras, and got out of the city away from the smell so I could eat it.

Best city in the US, maybe in the world. A lot of people are afraid of the place for some reason but I love NYC. We've visited 7 or 8 times and still haven't scratched the surface of places to see and things to do.

Got up, ate a local bagel, walked down the street to the subway and went to work with him. It was awesome.

Energy everywhere. We went to the local market after work and cooked dinner and then to a local watering hole. Great vibe


I didn't realize NYC had so many local things to do.
