Parks & Nature

This is my hands-down favorite place to run in New York. One loop is a little over 1.5 miles.

I love this Szechuan place; in my humble opinion, it can give restaurants in East Village and even Chinatown a run for their money.

Great Mediterranean food just around the corner. Get the mezze platter or the grilled lamb on the smoked eggplant puree!

Essentials

This is my go-to "general store": it has toiletries, hardware, bedding, cookware, bath products, cleaning supplies, stationery, furniture, you name it. If you need a pharmacy, there's also a Duane Reade one block north.

Drinks & Nightlife

Though the Upper East Side isn't famous for its cool bars, The Penrose is pretty hip, in a on-trend cocktail / cheese board / vintage wallpaper kind of way.
