I am in NJ-NY area and I would be free post 4 pm local time today. I am looking for suggestions for: 1. A good (vegetarian friendly) restaurant with a casual environment to chat with someone, preferably with a view 2. Best place to view the skyline from and take a walk at night 3. Anything else I should do? I already visited time square and I don't have enough time to visit Staten island.
Best views of the Hudson and Manhattan skyline are from Jersey City. Exchange place near the Goldman Sachs building.
Thanks. I just checked maps, is that the one near exchange place station? Any suggestion for a candle light dinner place near the area? Or any other nice restaurant/cafe?
No. They have some decent restaurants. But nothing fancy. If you are looking for an restaurant with a view, Manhattan maybe your best bet. If you are feeling really fancy, Top of the Rock maybe. PM me if you want more details
2. Go to the waterfront park in dumbo
Thanks. Is that the Main Street Park in Brooklyn? That's what my Google is showing.
Yes, you can start the walk there down to Brooklyn bridge park and pier 2 or 3. The timeout market is a pretty popular casual food spot too
