New York City is chock-full of restaurants with various cuisines from around the world. With so many places to eat, you may find yourself struggling to make a decision about where to grab a bite. Are you in the mood for Mexican food? Italian? Indian? Japanese? If you’re vegan or just love plant-based food, you can choose from any of the above cuisines, too. New York restaurants know that vegan isn’t one size fits all, which is why their restaurants are based on your food palate and preferred dining experience, as opposed to just excluding meat from their menus.

Chinese restaurants have been serving New Yorker’s since as early as the 1860s. Chinese food, from dumplings to roast pork to egg foo young, have been a staple of New Yorkers’ diets through the decades.

I absolutely love my lifestyle however can't lie tight budget is one of the downsides. Instead of giving up my travel dreams I just decided to become resourceful and find the perfect itineraries that still fit my tight budget and let me explore the world. Before every trip, I spend weeks planning and researching and it's one of my favourite parts of the adventure. However, I know it can be overwhelming and tedious at times so I decided to share my research and my itinerary with you. All places mentioned here are places where I have been/stayed/eaten myself and can give you an honest review. 🇺🇲 In fall of 2022 I backpacked through East coast of the USA by myself without a car. I was a bit sceptical how it would go since USA is not a very popular backpacker destination.

Hotel websites provide limited information and naturally act as a promotional vehicle for the hotel property. Pieces of information materially impacting hotel selection decisions such as surrounding construction work, upcoming hotel renovations, neighbouring businesses, proximity to downtown, safety (just to name a few) are for the most part not disclosed to the general public. Nasty surprises can arise without proper research. This is a comprehensive 30 question list to ask of hotels as part of your trip planning. Presented in email template form, you will gain a full picture into the hotel's location, facility, and room offering. ***LIVE GUIDE*** Additional content will sync free of charge.

‌Soul food & jazz ❤️ I don't really recommend Harlem as a neighborhood to stay in during your visit. It's super local & it's a little rough around the edges, but it's safe to visit and amazing to eat at. It's really famous for jazz music, live music, and soul food. It's full of history and it's one of my favorite neighborhoods to grab a drink & a bite at. This map contains my favorite soul food restaurants, a steakhouse, and a couple of great spots to watch live jazz. This is a living map, meaning, when I discover any new spots that I love, I'll add them in & you'll automatically get the updates! Use the map function at the top right of this guide to see what's closest to you when you visit!
