Food Scene
We got the Large Mixed Chicken (8 wings & 6 drumsticks), half Soy Garlic and half Soy Ginger. The chicken was perfectly crispy, having an audible crunch upon each bite. The chicken impressively stayed crunchy throughout the entire meal, even though each one was generously slathered with sauce. Each sauce tasted like it's respective flavor name, but neither the garlic nor ginger were overpowering. They both complemented the saltiness of the soy well. I didn't have a particular favorite, as I enjoyed both equally! I do recommend eating this with rice, to help contour the crunchiness and saltiness of the chicken dish.
As this is near broadway, I highly recommend checking this place out before

Sullivan Street Bakery offers tasty sandwiches, pastries, and soups. The Roast Beef Sandwiches and the delicious savory Cannoto Rapini are great! I also had a Kale and Fennel Chicken Soup and a sweet Cannoto Chocolate. Great vibe in the restaurant, with small window seats as well as a large circle table for larger parties. The latte here was sooo good.

Here’s a boozy Russian spot with a piano player tapping out old Soviet tunes. The food isn’t that great — the pelmeni (Siberian meat dumplings) are decent enough — the real draw here, rather, is the house-infused vodka, flavored with strawberry, apricot, cherry, and perhaps most exhilarating of all, sinus-clearing horseradish. It pairs well with a platter of tangy pickled vegetables for a post-theater snack.

Parks & Nature
The Lake – this large, man-made lake is a centerpiece of park. At its eastern point (just past Bethesda Terrace) is the Boathouse Restaurant.
Strawberry Fields – the peaceful retreat that was created in memory of John Lennon, who lived (and was murdered) just across the street. Its centerpiece is the Imagine Mosaic, which is often decorated with flowers by devoted Lennon fans.
Belvedere Castle – perched high on a hill, this stone castle offers magnificent views of the park and the cityscape. Inside the castle is a visitor’s center and the surrounding terraces offer spectacular vistas.

Arts & Culture
Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum
A museum housed in a genuine WWII Aircraft Carrier – and a guided missile submarine – moored in the Hudson River!
But it’s not stuck in the distant past. Yes, there are some 30 restored vintage aircraft displayed on Intrepid’s flight deck, but there’s also a British Airways Concorde nearby, the very plane that set the record for the fastest crossing of the Atlantic Ocean.
Intrepid also served as a recovery vessel for NASA’s 1960s Space Program, and in the Space Shuttle Pavilion you can see Enterprise, the prototype that started off the success story.
In all, there are 17 dynamic exhibition zones dedicated to the shuttle era.
