I'm not denying the food is delicious, just not the greatest and we have traveled all over the United States many occasions.
The food revolution is evolving so constantly across America it is hard to keep up with all the new hot restaurants in various cities

What is then?
San Francisco and Chicago would round out the top 3 but even they are far behind NYC.
NYC is arguably top 3 in the world, only behind Paris and Tokyo.

Maybe you should give your definition of greatest then since you want to argue the point. I realize superlatives are subjective, but I'd be hard pressed to think of a culinary center in the us that can rival NYC.

Chicago is nowhere near the level of San Fran or New York.

If you can make it there you can make it anywhere. So nice they named it twice.

People from Louisiana are afraid to leave Louisiana.

I am a native New Yorker. I remember as a kid feeling badly for everyone who did not get to grow up in NYC (my guess is that most kids think the same about where they grew up). I left New York after college in 1973 to come to D.C. for law school. I had every intention of going back home and practicing with my Dad.
After living in Northern Virginia during law school I decided that the D.C. area is where I wanted to live. I have not been in Manhattan for about 10 years now. I enjoyed going to visit; staying at The Plaza (which I understand has gone condo); seeing artists like Andrea Bocelli perform or Iona College play hoops at Madison Square Garden; eating good pizza and other foods; visiting St. Patrick's Cathedral; walking 5th Avenue; taking the Staten Island Ferry, etc. It is a great city.
I have lived in Virginia for almost 2/3 of my life now. I will always be a New Yorker by birth, but a Virginian by choice. To each his own.

Never been but it's on my short list. I know I would love it, since I love big cities with good public transportation and lots of food options.

well i mean NYC isn't exactly the ideal place to find conservative values in society or government
his point is stupid, but fair

It's okay. That's all I have to say about that.

I have been to NYC numerous times and love it, but it is silly to call one place the "greatest" in America. That is completely subjective.
I would encourage all Americans to visit it with an open mind. There are a ton of sites to see, and while it can be wildly expensive you can also have a good time there for not much money.

It annoys the hell out of me when people bring up politics in everything
