First off can I get a um everything bagel toasted with bacon egg and cheese do a sausage one as well 19,000 hello hello hello everyone welcome to a New York City iPhone Vlog okay I have my two Hometown besties Anila and Kansas here literally been friends with him for like

14 years now we just so this is my best friend Anila I just changed my option to Art so that I could be with these cool ladies we’re in the auditorium right now how do you rate School 10 out of 10 sure and they’re here for my birthday but

They’re only here for one day so I thought I would take them on the ultimate New York City tour today we’re going to see where the day takes us but if you’re coming to New York City here’s what I would do if I only had 24 hours

In New York City I would start off your day by getting a bagle you don’t you should go oh my God you’re totally American now bag bagle bagle bagag bagle with a bagle and I would recommend either going to Esa Bagel which is there’s multiple locations they have the

Best bagels Esa Bagel in New York City the best bagels we’re not here today but go there and then if you’re in the Lower East Side and you just want to start your day off there go to kosar’s Bagels filling up for like something new to try

Go to Pops Bagels they’re really known for like their fresh Bagels they don’t put like anything on it they just kind of give you the shmears I’ve tried it but just not fresh they always have a line those are three options coars SAA and Pops see what’s the closest to you

Go there start off your day and if you want do something iconic but touristy go to Tomkins Square Bagels that’s the iconic spot to try but I don’t think that they have the best bagels though where did we go Thompson Square okay yeah I remember we were waiting for like

Half an hour exact [ __ ] bagel not worth it not worth it don’t do it to yourself yeah like even if it was the best bagel at that point it’s like you know you want to be quick not even that good and the thing is yeah when you order it share with somebody or

Something because I mean you can eat it all in one sitting but it’s very heavy and you want to make sure that you’re feeling light because you’re going to be doing a food tasting throughout the day in New York City you know you don’t want

To fill yourself up on one meal on this little Adventure little Adventure little Adventure ooh look at that and cheese B and cheese how is it how is it good get got to get on the everything bagel this is my second New York Bagel ever second New York Bagel ever looks better than the first one I say no literally Good 10 dumplings for 4 bucks I was like does anyone have cash she was only have $7 and I was like oh that’s perfect I think this just tastes better cuz it was four bucks good I really like it we’re currently stopped here you guys already

Chocolate chip think smarter not harder cuz now you just walk the tin you got $5 off and a new memory new home decor and a new treat and that’s the best part about traveling whenever people go to your house you have a story to tell for every piece in your house

Connect on to Chinatown so I definitely recommend starting off your day at the Lower East Side and staying around this area because all you have to do is walk around all day long no train need POV you’re walking around Little Italy and you’re looking around H so many

Different Italian places to choose from where do I eat well boy you’re in for treat don’t eat here you got to make sure you’re eating at the good places cuz that’s what New York is for you know eating at the good places oh no the cookies are your bag broke look guys

Classroom and she goes do you guys care that m is being bullied right now no I don’t understand why you guys care that bull no I I don’t no [ __ ] what I said yeah exposed cheese these vegabond shoes are longing to stray I want to be a part of it New York

New York look at this Bank ooh ooh we’re currently at T right now the signage outside is just original buildings sign and it was for a print shop the reason why it’s a Chinese sign is because where we’re at right now is the intersecting part of the Lower East

Side and Chinatown so there’s like a little bit of a mix of both on this street and I think it’s super cool how they left the original sign up and how they don’t have any branding outside like I think it’s super super super cool and I would say the vibe of this

Restaurant is definitely worn in it makes you feel like it’s been here for a hundred years which kind of adds this nice cozy touch to it I love this [ __ ] I love this place and oh my God if you guys are looking for an experience come

Here and try orange wine for your first time if you’ve never tried it this is where I had my first orange wine and now it’s my favorite wine and this is where they are now going to have their first orange wine so I hope they enjoy but I

Love how like they serve wine glasses as like regular cups you know it adds that feel and then their water cups are like this small but this Greek salad looks absolutely freaking magnificent I always get this in the zucchini chips with a little orange wine that is my go-to so

If you guys want to have the experience experience Cheers Cheers nice when it first goes in it’s like kind of like strong but then once it like hits your mouth it like Mellows down instantly think about it like that when you try it orange Wine’s my favorite

Wine so this is a zucchini chip it’s basically fried zucchini which I know sounds gross but it’s sliced to the perfect thinness so it’s crispy and then the cheese on top is chef’s kiss it’s not like melted or anything it’s just really good you especially you love your

Cheese look at how crisp this is guys like it’s flaky good M eat up I’m I’m feeding you puv you’re my mouth you like it what does it taste like uh first it kind of taste like a like a sweet potato fry type of thing sort of a little bit no and then

The cheese hits want to hear the ASMR yeah the texture is really um satisfying you ready I’m going to actually act like M how’s the food Kansas really good mhm and how about you Anila Blended wow oh I’m going to go for this bottle I mean this glass of wine M so

Good so this hotel is called The Moxy and as you can he see here this is the restaurant lobby with the pool table in the morning this is Jack’s coffee or whatever and they turn that pot into a breakfast spot they have a live band playing upstairs is a hotel but then

Down these stairs over here is a nice jazz club and movie theater had the table for about an hour and a half okay perfect thank you and keep your talking to a bare minimum so that you and your neighbors can enjoy the Show I hope you guys enjoy yes are so cutie East and the West racking up on my breath power on me I’m feeling just like a Tesla too much tree the smoke is making my chest hurt girl on me I’m thinking I should rest hurt hey I’m thinking I should a rest all night long
