    Havana is good, some days you fancy a steak some days you fancy pistrami !

      Great bar on Times Square called the Blue Fin - do good cocktails and its a great place to people watch. Can also recommend a restaurant called The Roc.

        Yeh - I also did the chav thing went to MTV, also managed to get to be one of the audience on Good Morning America hosted by Diane Sawyer (at the time didn't have a clue who is Diane Sawyer) went to Planet Hollywood a lot of stars go there after they visit the MTV building across the road, Macys & Bloomfield (had to do the Rachel thing :-)


        I ate mainly in delis e.g Carnegie deli , Roxy and all the tourist places

        You really should take a tour uptown and downtown, they take you to see Brooklyn and Harlem, tell you about all the various migrants history, the Irish, the Italians, the Chinese (a visit to China town is also recommended - lots of fake designer stuff)
        Last but not least is the empire building and statue of liberty. Didn’t get a chance to see all the museums, but went to the theatre almost every night..



        Hope you have better weather - it was minus 13 when I went, but still it was fantastic, would do it again if I had the time and money. btw: if you are a musician, there is a whole street (think its 47th) which is music shops end to end, the music equipments were amazing
        !
