Moleskine Lists: Moving to New York

24_juanRayos9
Whether you are planning a visit or dreaming of moving to New York.. There are lists to be made. I am trying to get a jump start on mapping out some of the restaurants I would like to visit, bloggers I would love to network with, etc. I am someone who is passionate about getting to know the city I live in (see: Seattle Adventure Map) and I know that New York is a treasure chest. I can’t wait to draw my map and start the hunt.

Currently, I have so many lists in my Moleskine that I think I may need to start a whole new Moleskine just for New York…

There are lists for:

Blogs
Note To Self: Great blogger who is currently moving from Savannah to Connecticut then to New York.
Gothamist : A daily weblog covering New York city’s personalities, news stories, and media
Dean Street Society: A New York stylist who focuses on “creating providence” in the lives of those she styles.

Additions:
LingeredUpon: Alice is an amazing photographer and here adventures are a source of constant inspiration.
Nicole Franzen:  La Buena Vida, the blog of food & lifestyle photographer Nicole Franzen. Based in Brooklyn New York.
Yikes Machine: She is living my dream! Normally based in New York, but currently spending several months in Paris. She has a wonderful post about what to expect when moving to New York.
Door Sixteen: Brooklyn blogger and book designer.
Scouting NY: This guy works as a movie location scout in New York. His job is to stare at the city. 

Eats
Five Leaves, Williamsburg: I have heard the ricotta pancakes are delish!
Ovenly, Greenpoint
Hotel Delmano: Rumors.. about their cocktails and cheese.
Addition: “Cheap Eats”
Mission Chinese Food: Good size servings, and .75 from each entree goes to the New York Food Bank. 
Gueros Brooklyn: Lots of tacos.
606 R&D:  An edited selection of market items are available for take away including cake donuts, artisan breads, cured meats, local cheeses, sandwiches and salads.
Sticky’s Finger Joint: Gourmet chicken finger restaurant - antibiotic free, hormone free, cruelty free, free range chicken.

Adventure Map - Guide to Seattle
This is a guide for Seattleites and non-Seattleites alike who perhaps don’t want to just visit “tourist” spots. These are organized by area (see a neighborhood map here) though some have multiple locations. By no means is this intended to be a comprehensive guide to the whole city – it’s just to get you started. I will keep updating this page as I find new treasures.
See the full list on here on Southern Nomad.
