So jealous, I love NYC! I feel like the foodie recs are endless so I will just send a few-
I’ve heard great things about Rubirosa pizza, I sadly didn’t make it on my last trip! I had a great meal at Catch which is a popular rooftop restaurant.
You have to go to Leon’s bagels and joes pizza for casual to go eats.
Bleeker street is in west village where all the shops are and a cool area. There is also Chelsea market which have lots of foodie stops.
Spend the day in Brooklyn / Dumbo area - worth visiting the time out market.
I’m sure others will send some other options but have the best time!

How exciting! I love New York and spent 4 weeks there last year.
If you’re looking for cheaper eats then bagels, tacos and pizza slices are your best bet. I’d really recommend Los Tacos no. 1, Joe’s Pizza and Russ & Daughters for filled bagels or if you’re on the go.
You should get the famous (but well worth it pastrami sandwich) from Katz Deli and stuffed cookies from Levain.
I had a fabulous steak at Gallaghers steakhouse; perfectly located for pre-theatre too and very old school NYC.
I’ve wrote some of my other favourites on here: https://www.thehungrysoles.com/blog/tag/New+York
Also for sight seeing the Edge (you can book yoga if you’re in to that) or walking the sky line is a must on a good day.
Have the best time x
