NYC has gotten really cold all of a sudden. It was cold and rainy yesterday - my teeth were actually chattering - which made day game in the park untenable. Complete contrast to the day before when it was very warm and humid. I also made the mistake of drinking too early. Started in the afternoon and then I met up with RVF member Shamrock for happy hour and kept on going. Very legit guy btw. Ended up hitting three bars around Union Square and the Village. We split and then I was supposed to hit Marque in the MPD later but my boy who was responsible for getting me in ended up not being able to go. I became very tired by that point and the rain and cold killed all motivation for making moves on the fly so I just crashed. Too tired to even tag along with my boy to a local bar where some chick he had smashed was with friends. Got some things in the works tonight and tomorrow though.

What's up HC. I'm a 6 year East Village resident, so I have quite a few spots around here scoped out. I don't hit the clubs as often anymore, but if you're looking for bars that are pretty easy to pull from with hot chicks (although not as hot as MPD), check these out.
Niagra: 7th & A
Bua: St. Marks btw 1st and A
No Malice Palace: 3rd St btw A & B
Hotel Chantelle: LES Ludlow just South of Delancey
Blind Barber: 10th and B
I'm also probably going out tonight, so shoot me an email if you want to meet up. I'll shoot you a PM with my number.
Sounds good man. I'll hit you up. Just left SoHo.

Great meeting you and Eros dude! Definitely a good night, although as we discussed, Saturday on Memorial Day Weekend with shitty weather can be hit or miss. I think it was more hit than miss though!
You're definitley a quick hitter on approaching haha...before I could even think of it you were right in there! Definitely a new experience for me as the guys I normally hang out with I'm the only one who ever approaches haha...
How was the party last night? I definitely had a good night. The Heat won, and my lady friend kept me up all night celebrating!

Likewise man. You're a legit playboy who knows your city and makes for a great wing. You did your thing in the MPD that night. East Village is a good look btw. Amazing logistics for you. I'm still laughing about the DC girl we met being so stereotypical, from punching you in the stomach, to dapping Eros, and asking me "only in DC" questions. I was so turned off that I didn't even bother to ask for her number.
It was definitely not as target rich out in the city as other times I've been because of the holiday weekend and shitty weather like you said. Shamrock said the same. A bunch of chicks went to the Hamptons or left NY altogether. The bday dude didn't get back to us until late and the party was in Brooklyn so I just went to a get together at Shamrock's for his roomie's bday. It was a decent little cookout at a nice rooftop apartment so we just stayed there that night. Met another forum guy there, Nacirema, which was cool. I only went out to venues on Thursday night to Lavo and Saturday night with you and Eros.
Aside from Lavo and the MPD, I never ventured above 14th Street and I enjoyed NYC more this time around actually. I realize Lower Manhattan is where I need to be. Between Union Square, the Village, and SoHo, you got all bases covered for the most part, day and night.
All in all, NYC is most definitely the best all-around city not just in America but in the world IMO (at least from what I've seen). It covers all angles for game, day and night, and the diversity is unmatched. There's pretty much everything for everyone. It's the ideal stomping grounds for the modern day adult male IMO. The women are very receptive there.
I appreciate the spots you put me onto. There were some gems we checked out and I'll most definitely hit you up next time I'm in town on a proper weekend. Congrats on the Heat's win and with the chica! Twofer!
I heard it popped off in the Hamptons this weekend. My boy took this pic from a house party he was at. Looks live.

Great thread. I'm hitting NYC for Mem day weekend (Thurs evening - Mon morning). I'm going to have free reign day and night to just game. Any updated boots on the ground intel? This will be my first time in the city this year so I imagine a lot has changed. I've done the high end thing in the MPD and, frankly, I think I'd prefer bars/lounges instead. You take big hits partying in the MPD for what I think is incommensurate ROI. Still cool and receptive chicks though. Instead, I'm thinking of hitting LES and the Village this time so any venue intel would be appreciated. I also need intel for prime day game areas.
HC - I'm with you on preferring bars/lounges over the MPD clubs. Here's a few recommendations for bars in LES and the Village.
Disclaimer - I only moved back to NY recently so some of these are current recs and the others are what I remember from a few years ago.
Jadis wine bar is a great spot, real cool place, great menu, beautiful women. Good for dates especially.
Ludlow St is like the epicenter for LES bars. There's a few, I always liked Piano's best. Tons of people on the streets at night, easy to game girls walking from one spot to another.
The crowd around here is pretty hipster, but there's always fly girls in numbers. Just reread the G classic "Behind Enemy Lines" before going.
Pravda - pretty cool Russian style joint.
Happy Ending - A lounge that apparently used to be a happy ending massage joint. Younger crowd, some good DJ's, met some Asian girls here and also a few Russians back in the day. But I haven't been there in years.
SOB's (Sounds of Brazil) on Houston was always one of my favorite spots. Lots of latina and black girls here and great music. Or at least there used to be, also haven't been back there in years.
Check out Josie Woods Pub in the Village for NYU girls. Trust me on this one, you'll blow away the competition.
For day game you could try the running/biking path on the west side near Pier 40. On nice days you'll have about a million fly girls running by. But like Freddy_1 said, nearby Christopher St. is a big gay neighborhood, you're definitely gonna get approached haha.
On any given Saturday afternoon you'll find about a million fly girls lounging around the shops in SoHo, so give this a shot for day game too.
why was this guy banned?
Seems like you had a good time Hen. Shame we couldn't connect. We'll be in touch on your next run through the city.

Yeah it's tough to beat the logistics that NYC offers. Tons of hot women who are down to hook up, and the best thing of all is that no one drives. They all arrive and leave separately, so it's easy to get someone to go home with you because they don't have to worry about rides and things like that. So easy. Unless of course they're 21, live in Brooklyn, and their crazy cousin freaks out and drives to your apartment at 4am to pick them up. Like my Saturday night haha...
Great to meet you though man and we'll definitely kick it next time you're in NYC. Also, can you pass Eros my number? Sent him a PM, but don't think he's on here much.
Thanks bro!
It's funny. Many of my friends who aren't on the forum express skepticism when I mention it. They say it's probably mostly full of keyboard jockeys but so far everyone I've met off the forum has been cool.
I want to highlight some spots I checked out over the weekend.
Restos
ABC Kitchen - Dope resto near Union Square. All that locally, organic in-season stuff. I went there for brunch on Saturday and the atmosphere was great. This is a nice spot to go with a chick but regardless it's a good place to eat.
Hu Kitchen - I recommend this for lunch while you're in Union Square day gaming or if you don't have time for a service restaurant. It's cafeteria style but everything is paleo. It's the type of place you can come to post up with your laptop or enjoy a quick meal with friends. There are sets of girls who eat here, both upstairs and downstairs so there's opportunity for that too. The food is excellent.
Nightlife
Lavo - I know I had mentioned this as being a Thursday spot, but I've also heard it's good on Fridays and even Saturdays. I know my boys and I have only been on Thursday and our promoter contact is there only on those nights. But Shamrock and some other folks said Fridays and Saturdays are also good.
The Ginger Man - This is an impressive beer bar in Midtown. I only wound up here on my way to look for this late night spot called EVR. I wouldn't hang out this far north in the city otherwise but if you find your way in this area it's worth a look. They were still serving drinks at 4am and I hear there can be chicks in here earlier in the night.
The Tippler - Good pregame bar in the MPD. No cover. Good place to get into the mindset before going out in the area. Warder and I met girls from Spain, Calgary, and Denmark.
For clubs in the MPD, you get what you pay for. Don't be stingy if you choose to party here. HLB (Highline Ballroom) was only a $30 cover on Saturday but it was all Jersey Shore mf's. Places that have strict face control and charge bigger covers tend to be much better atmospheres. Either do it right or just don't do it at all IMO.
In addition to the bars Warder mentioned in his earlier post, Belfry in Union Square is also nice. Bagged an Argentine-American chick here. Great ratios on certain nights I'm told and it has a real nice ambiance for conversation-based game.
There are almost endless spots in the city but these are just a few to keep in mind.

Not fully NYC related but pertinent to my trip. I've been asked by this girl I've been pipelining to see papers showing myself as STD free.
I'm of course going to do my best to deflect this request, not because I have any infections but because I don't have the time to get tested and get results during my stay. Has anyone done any quick tests before, I can imagine something to be available at Duane Reade or similar no?
Since free testing is a perk of my nations welfare I have never bothered looking at how it's done in other countries.

If you have money ( or good health insurance like I do) in America, then you just ask your primary care physician to do it.
If you don't have money, people go to the free clinics. I live in Manhattan and there are plenty clinics that offer rapid testing, though the test is limited to HIV only if done quickly (same day). A full blood workup takes time (about a week). Unfortunately you cannot buy them at Duane Reade like drug tests. The list of clinics is here.
Don't even bother looking up how healthcare is done here in America. It is terrible.
I have never had someone ask me for the lab report showing I was clean. At best, they just ask if I was tested, and few have anyway. At least you know she is DTF.
Yeah it seems like too much of a hassle. If she doesn't relent I'll just forget her.
Which brings me to another issue. My pipelining has been quite fruitful to the point where I now have scheduling issues. My biggest headache is what kind of girls I want to put up on the precious few weekend nights. Do you guys have any philosophy on this?

I would push for earlier meetups (before going out hours) as not to botch your night if she's not DTF. You always want an exit strategy as an option. I haven't pipelined in NYC but it's cool to hear it's fruitful. What sites do you use and what is the quality like? Prioritize the best looking ones that seem DTF since that's your goal for a short, infrequent trip. Be flirtatious in your messages.
Well the last part is a no Brainer. I'm thinking more like what nights to use for dates and which for going out considering NYC nightlife. I'm using OKC almost exclusively.

Thurs - Sat are big going out nights like in many other big cities, but there's always something going on in NYC. Suns - Wed, but even then you want an exit strategy. You can always some bars in the Village or near Union Square or find something in the MPD if you're looking for something high end.
You know your dress is tight when you get interviewed and videotaped by French TV the minute you walk out the door.
The two girls taping/interviewing were hot but far to focused on their work for me to get anywhere.

You in India now? Let's see if we can catch up.
I should be heading to back US via Latin Am in sometime.

Got an update on Lavo. My boy went last night and said it wasn't as good as before. Word got out to wall street guys that the dope chicks go to Lavo. Ratio wasn't good last night. Too many dudes apparently. The rain may have also had something to do with it. He said he only saw 3 or 4 super exclusive looking chicks.
xmlenigma, nope just forgot to change my current position.
Hen, yeah the rain is definitely doing something. I got in late the other day and hit town at 1130pm and it was pretty dead then.

First notch collected within 24h of arrival.
She was really dragging her feet on leaving so I had to pay for her taxi to get her to the last train of the day.
Slightly miffed about that, real beta of me.
So who's around in the city at the moment again?

Nice. Online or venue pull? How long are you in NYC for?
That one was pipelined. In fact I have another 4 pipelined dates lined up which is almost bad since I have no pressure on me to run day game. I'm just eating all the time right now, just strolled through town and baam all of Madison Square Park and surrounding streets are one big BBQ event so I'm mowing through ribs, brisket and sausages at an alarming rate!
I'm here until the 15th.
