Clara: Fun Place to Try in NYC

Summer is a great time to catch up on your museum-going. While the next-door American Museum of Natural History will be mobbed, the New-York Historical Society is very often less crowded. The exhibit of New York paintings and the Tiffany lamp collection are unrivaled. And there’s a wonderful restaurant on the ground floor named Clara where you can linger over your burger or meal-size salad, and where the bloody marys are strong. 

There is even a seating area outside with a view of Central Park, and you don’t have to pay museum admissions if you go directly to the restaurant. 170 Central Park West, at 77th Street, Upper West Side

The Cantor Roof Garden Bar is located on top of one of the world's most famous museums: The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
The museum itself is, of course, a thing of beauty, located smack in the middle of Central Park and giving visitors access to beautiful works of art.

The Cantor doesn't fall far behind, as it offers stunning views of the park and the surrounding skyscrapers, as well as a large and lush rooftop garden with park benches and comfortable tables to sit at. You can also sit down on the lawn if you're so inclined.

Wine by the glass, house-made lemonade and specialty cocktails make up the drink menu, but you can also find sandwiches and salads in case you get hungry.

Open during the warmer months, access to the rooftop is available to all museum visitors. And filled with a very relaxing and friendly atmosphere, it is a great spot to bring children and enjoy the lush views.

Discover the Hidden Gems of Chinatown NYC with Local Information

Nestled in the heart of New York City, Chinatown is more than just a tourist destination. Local information reveals that it's a bustling community teeming with rich history, intriguing secrets, and a treasure trove of experiences. With Kikihub, you can dive into the anonymous insights shared by real locals who offer unfiltered opinions and secrets about this fascinating neighborhood. Whether you're new to the area or a longtime resident, uncovering Chinatown's hidden gems will make your visit truly unforgettable.

Anonymous Insights on the Best Eateries

While many visitors flock to well-known establishments like Joe's Shanghai for their famed soup dumplings, local anonymous chat reveals other gastronomic delights. Have you ever heard of the small, family-owned joint called Spicy Village? Nestled on Forsyth Street, this modest eatery offers a tantalizing array of Henan-style dishes, with their bánh mì-inspired spicy big tray chicken drawing rave reviews. Through local information and anonymous insights, discover lesser-known but equally delightful culinary spots that are often overshadowed by popular tourist favorites.

Uncover Trending Discussions on Chinatown's Culture

Dive deeper into the cultural tapestry of Chinatown by joining Kikihub's trending discussions. Engage with fascinating stories about hidden historical landmarks like the Mahayana Buddhist Temple. Few tourists realize that this temple houses the largest Buddha statue in New York City, yet it remains a serene escape amidst the chaotic city life. Bathe in traditional chants and take a moment for introspection in this local sanctuary.

Beyond the tangible, Chinatown is alive with cultural practices and festivals that few outsiders have ever experienced. The Kikihub community frequently discusses the colorful Lunar New Year Festival, sharing tips to avoid tourist traps and witness authentic performances by local lion dance clubs.

Community Events You Can’t Miss

Nothing immerses you into Chinatown's vibrant spirit like participation in local community events. According to local information gathered on Kikihub, the Chinatown Night Market is a must-see. Held monthly, it transforms the streets into a bustling hub of activity, featuring food stalls, live performances, and unique handmade crafts. This is a fantastic opportunity to support local vendors and soak in the eclectic sights and sounds you won't find in guidebooks.

Another community favorite is the annual Egg Rolls, Egg Creams, and Empanadas Festival, celebrating the cultural blend of Jewish, Chinese, and Puerto Rican communities in Lower Manhattan. From anonymous insights, learn where to find the stands with the best bites or the corners with the most compelling historical talks.

Travel Tips from Local Experts

Smart travel is about knowing the best ways to navigate an area, and locals have the best travel tips. One piece of local information that's frequently shared is the importance of venturing beyond Canal Street to experience the full breadth of Chinatown. Take a leisurely stroll down Pell Street, famous for its quaint storefronts and herbal medicine shops. Find out from local recommendations which times of the day are least crowded for a more authentic experience.

It's also wise to travel via MTA buses rather than taxis or rideshares for a truly local commute. Lines like the M15 and D line will give you a comfortable ride through the area, and perhaps even a few tips from local commuters as shared through Kikihub's anonymous insights.

Real Recommendations for Shopping and Souvenirs

Chinatown offers an array of shopping experiences, from bustling markets to quaint boutiques. While many guidebooks point you to the crowded stalls around Canal Street, local information will lead you to the East Broadway Mall as a fantastic alternative. Here, you can find traditional goods and unique souvenirs without the hassle of overwhelming tourist crowds.

If you’re looking for more unusual finds, the local community praises the lesser-known Charm Element on Division Street, which specializes in jade ornaments and traditional Chinese artwork. According to anonymous insights gathered from Kikihub, this is the place where even Chinatown’s longtime residents go for unique pieces and exclusive deals.

Embrace the Vibrant Nightlife of Chinatown

Chinatown's nightlife is an underappreciated facet of its charm. While many visitors wrap up their trips by sunset, locals know that the evening brings a different kind of magic. Local recommendations highlight Apotheke, a speakeasy-style bar hidden away on Doyers Street, known for its exotic cocktails and vibrant ambiance. For karaoke enthusiasts, the duo of Welcome to Seoul and Baby Grand provides an energetic atmosphere filled with strong drinks and catchy tunes.

Engaging with Kikihub’s trending discussions reveals that even late-night eateries have their stardom. Sanur, a 24-hour Indonesian restaurant on Doyers Street, serves authentic meals round the clock. You’ll find a mix of revelers and early risers enjoying rice congee and beef rendang with equal delight. Exploring these night-time havens will give you a glimpse into a side of Chinatown few tourists ever see.
