Bar on A
Ave. A and 11th
What used to seem like it would only be good for cheap drinks and picking up divocees now looks like it could be getting better since they did a renovation that more than doubled their size

Corner Billiards
11th St. between 3rd and 4th Ave
Huge pool hall with bar, pay by the hour, frequent player cards to get a free hour for every 10 played.

It's a small pic, so it was tough to tell, but it looked like a tongue was sticking out and hands were propping the cleavage up.

Maybe my mind is just in the gutter from sitting at my desk all day.

it's already linked in the visitor's guide


besides, me requesting it to be stickied is subjective and according to the boards, what i deem appropriate as a sticky might not go over well with people

Montrachet
239 W. Broadway (Walker and White)
Amazing French cuisine. Fantastic wine list as well, though many are costly. When we went, there was a $10,000 bottle and the majority were over $100, but they do have a 40 for $40 page in the thick book that is their wine list.

Amazing service and very knowledgeable sommelier. They gave us three free desserts for just barosoap and I, which capped off a great meal. Also part of the Myriad restaurant group that includes Nobu and Tribeca Grill.

O:

Old Homestead: [14th St. & 9th Ave] probably my fave steakhouse in the city. my grandfather knew the owners back in the day, when the meatpacking district was actually used for packing meat, and we'd get hooked up. place has been hanging on since the 1880s.

Odeon

Riverside Drive.

On the far west side of Manhattan. Stretches all the way up and down Manhattan. Riverside drive in the 60's - 110's is really nice. It's all park, trees and such. Quiet, scenic, the natives are chill. Great for bike riding, walking, sail or motor boating, chilling in the sun by the water et cetera.
