Things To Do In New York
Faking It: Gourmet Foods to Go
Everyone knows a true New Yorker cooks less than he takes out. But sometimes your body needs a break from the MSG intake. That's when you decide to grab a gourmet meal instead of fast food. Luckily, there are a ton of specialty grocery markets and prepared food bars throughout the city where you can get a single serving of fresh fish and veggies, create your own salad, or buy a platter of assorted cheeses and charcuterie, some sides and main dishes for a party with friends and family.
Giving Back: Where to Volunteer in New York
Let's face it: Your karmic balance could use a tip back into positive territory, and what better way to accomplish that than by volunteering? New York offers lots of ways to give back to the community, whether you’re looking to commit for one day, or for one day a week. From mentoring to working with underprivileged kids to lending a hand at your local soup kitchen, there’s a community service opportunity for every New Yorker--and if you’re not doing it because you're a genuinely good person, then do it because you're terrified of the old adage: What goes around comes around.
Eco-Date Night
You're no Al Gore, but you do lie awake some nights fretting over whether your carbon footprint might be too large, and hoping Mother Earth will find a way to forgive you. You also need a date. Lucky for you, we've got three itineraries for eco-friendly dates that'll impress your companion while soothing your eco-conscience.
Light My Fire: Best Grilling in the City
Summer is here and that means it's grillin' time. Whether you want someone else to cook it for you, (or at least do the prep, a la Korean barbecue), or if you're into being involved in every step from choosing the perfect outdoor spot to flipping each burger, we've got you covered. So get out there and start fanning those flames!
Get Your Feet Right for Summer
It's flip-flop season again, and your toes look like a pitbull's chew toy. Not to worry--these spas have special pedicure treatments designed to bring your feet back to life, just in time for summer.
