Jewel Bako in lower east for sushi and LIVE lobster sashimi FTMFW! (they leave the head on the plate, it's alive and moves while you eat the tail meat so don't go if you are in PETA)

park ftw

If you want a Japanese theme'd restaurant, definitely hit up NINJA NEW YORK... A bit pricey, but everything is definitely worth it! If you go, make sure you make a reservation..

I've always wanted to try Jewel Bako!

Being a sushi fanatic, I would recommend Sushi of Gari (upper east side) and Sushi Yasuda (midtown east). Both offer omakase, and I prefer to sit at the sushi bar to get interaction with the sushi chefs (makes for a great experience). Sushi of Gari has more creative sushi, whereas Sushi Yasuda serves sushi in a purer way. Both are great, so if you get a chance, try one!

that requires good company for fun. it was more for atmosphere and an experience, the food was ok only..

I've already been, and im familiar with China town and little Italy, so im good there, but i want to try something i havent tried there before

I would like advice on the following:
- best clubs/lounges
- best middle eastern food (if there's a arabic/middle eastern area) like falafel, shawerma, etc
- Best touristy stuff
- Funniest bestest broadway show
- if there are authentic omakase style sushi. i plan on going to Nobu, but i can use a few more sushi places
- Best hole-in-wall restaurants of any ethnicity, just bomb food.

You guys are welcome to suggest other things if you feel like i'd be missing out big time if i didnt go to.

thanks fellas!!!

NYC consist of 5 borough's, I think you mean you will strictly be in Manhattan.
Damn tourist's, do your self a favor and leave your camera at home, last thing we need is more Asians running around with cameras.
