see previously sandwich craving post but shopsins is kinda like a very new york (but really les) answer to cheesecake factory: a million menu items, all bangers all the time. it’s a little pricy but always worth it. reccomemd going with friends and splitting a bunch of stuff because the sweet spicy salty thing is fr, menu linked for amusement

The best breakfast in the world is in NYC hidden in the new remade Essex Market. Punk rock fearlessness poured into the cooking (and attitude) here. Feels like it should be as well known as Katz's or any of these other NYC places people always talk about. It's family owned and has been in New York since the 70's. amazing music too, always. they're Mets fans too. magical place. one of the only authentix of old NY left.

act Like a normal pre-Tiktok human, follow the rules, get the blisters on my sisters, ebelskiver, or tommy Pete and bring Zack (now owner and son of original wonder) anything Mets themed

The ultimate fuel for people who like to walk around New York City all day. Lunch that costs more than $12 is a crime, and your dollar takes you very far at Pret. I recommend their Calabrese sandwich with a small orange juice. Something I previously didn’t know is that every day, the staff at Pret hides a star sticker on the back of one of the sandwiches in the refrigerator, and, if you select it, you get that sandwich for free. Unbeknownst to me, I selected one at their 50th street location a while back and when I brought it to the counter, the entire staff cheered for me. It was one of the best days of my life.

if you think you’re the smartest person in your friend group you’re weird and annoying. the best friendships come out of mutual awe and respectability. be friends with people who make you want to know more things.

i will never be in a situationship in the same way i will never be in the land of oz--it's just not real. i think using the word doesn't let you self-reflect in a way that is truly helpful. i was telling my friend about the awkwardness of seeing an exhook up in a relationship bc i thought we had mutual feelings and she said "oh your exsituationship" and i thought (for the first time) no, we had clear boundaries i just got my hopes up. my point is that instead of using situationship as a catch-all for not quite dating or wtv failed prospect, take it as a moment to reflect on what exactly went wrong. idk if this is profound or not

i’m averaging 14,000 steps a day for the past year, why? i walk everywhere. at one point i was averaging 16,000 (this is my flex). you get to explore a city and now when people ask me for directions i can actually tell them bc i’ve gotten really good at knowing where i am. if it takes less than an hour for me to walk from a to b, i will walk. if i have enough time i’ll walk 2+ hours just to see someone. just put on a good playlist/pod and go go go!!
