Oh hai, NYC Tumblr-ers. Tony and I will be in your Biggest of Cities from October 30th through November 2nd to attend the HallowMEME Party hosted by Urlesque and Know Your Meme. We’ll be documenting our travels at All Over Manhattan, blogging from the Starbucks in Times Square, the Starbucks in Little Italy and the Starbucks near the Empire State Building—y’know, just like all real New Yorkers. Which is all very exciting, but… We’re New York newbies. I’ve visited twice and, despite all the action I tried to pack into those trips, five total days is not enough time to experience the wonders of Manhattan. Tony—who is, comparatively, Mr. Travel—has never even been there at all. So, we thought we’d ask the marvelously knowledgeable (and good-looking—flattery!) Tumblr community for some guidance: What should two gentlemen of cultural curiosity and adventurous spirit get up to while they’re in the Big Apple? What should we eat? Where should we drink? How do we find this Mr. O’Daniel if we’d like to become male prostitutes? Is there something we should most definitely make time for?
