Great book, great website, great concept, Jun 21 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Citytripping: New York for Nighthawks, Foodies, Culture Vultures, Fashion Fetishists Downtown Addicts & the Generally Style-Obsessed (Paperback)
The best thing about this book is that the author is just a normal guy like you and me; he doesn't have to try to sound savvy or hip. This book is like having a cool best friend take you around the city. I refer to it whenever I want to go out on the town, especially downtown.

A great resource for young tourists and denizens alike, Jan 6 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Citytripping: New York for Nighthawks, Foodies, Culture Vultures, Fashion Fetishists Downtown Addicts & the Generally Style-Obsessed (Paperback)
If you're not so much interested in how to beat the lines at the Statue of Liberty, and more attuned to where you can sip Long Island Ice Teas while staring at bona fide fashion models and New York's notoriously secretive cognoscenti, this book is for you. Much more than a guide to the city's geography, it is a rare insight into the raison d'etre of the au courant. Forget Fodor's, Let's Go, and all the broad-spectrum filth. Finally, there is a book for the people who need it. Anyone can see the Statue of Liberty from miles away. Citytripping goes below the surface.

Wow!, Dec 22 1998

I have never seen a guidebook quite like this before. It is both informative and amusing. I would recommend that anybody interested in going to New York City for the first time buy it. I did. I found it by randomly scanning through amazon's New York City guidebooks. What caught my eye is the approach that this book takes that is different than most of the other guidebooks. This book really is targeted at people who want to do things in New York that locals, not visitors, usually do. I met a lot of interesting people going to the recommended restaurants in this book. There is absolutely no way that either my girlfriend or I could have found out about all of the stuff in this book. The concierge at our hotel even wrote down some recommendations for his own records!
