Pauline Frommer's New York City - Pauline Frommer

Spend Less and See More in New York City Are You Ready to Travel Smart? If you'd like to get the most out of your dollar and your trip, this is the guide for you. I put a fresh spin on budget travel, showing you how to see the best for less and how to see it in a more authentic way—the way the locals do. Instead of spending $300 a night for a chain hotel, why not live it up in an antiques–filled Fifth Avenue mansion for just $75, or bed down in a SoHo gallery just steps from the artwork for $110? Or how about enjoying falafel at Alfanoose for just $5, so you can splurge on up–and–coming chef Abdhul Traore's steak frites dusted with African herbs at Les Enfants Terribles? Let me show you the "other" New York City—the one only insiders know about. Take a one–day cooking class with the city's top chefs or get free tango lessons at the Argentine Consulate. These are only a few of the great ways to get closer to the culture of New York City. Read on for more! Happy Travels, Pauline Frommer www.frommers.com/pauline
