  ...You're going to pay around 150.00 or slightly less per night anywhere in midtown.

  Maybe in 1989 or for a total shithole.
  
  $250ish for something "decent"

  What's your budget? Traveling with kids?
  
  Just a heads up, it won't be cheap.

  The Yotel is pretty cheap if you don't mind sleeping on a modernized futon.

  We had some of our sales reps stay there 2 summers ago when they were in town for meetings, they were pissed :laugh:
  
  The roof bar is nice though, but it's a pretty desolate part of town.

  No. Look for the most flamboyant guy at Times Square and ask for the best place to have a meal, the locals selling their broadway shows are more than willing to guide you to a place that's not a "chain" and has great food.

  I have endless food recommendations. I work in the specialty food biz, it's all we talk about.

  Coincidentally my Yotel experience happened when I was in town for the specialty food show at Javits.

  Fancy Food Show? I'm very familiar, it's fucking chaos when that goes on. I dread that week.

  Let's see them. Midtown, upper west side, Chelsea, flat iron, and Hell's Kitchen.

  Ramen? I'm a huge fan of Asian food, specifically ramen. This is one of my fav spots, they have two locations. Best pork buns I've ever had.

  Root & Bone - East Village
  Southern food. I've never been, but it's at the top of my list. Gets packed, always a wait.

  Im a fan of most cuisine, but also love Asian food. I have been on an Asian kick lately. These are all awesome, thanks. Do you know of any Korean BBQ spots where you grill the meat yourself at the table?
• Automatik

  

  I've actually never been to a proper Korean BBQ place. There's a ton of them here though. Here's one I just know of from people at work. It's in Koreatown (Midtown)
  
  Looks solid

  I recently tried "shabu shabu" for the first time. Similar to Korean BBQ but Japanese and you cook everything in a massive hotpot at the table. It was fun, kinda weird. I had beef tongue.
