"A great read. . . . Lively and unabashedly opinionated."

Budget Travel Redefined

I put a fresh spin on budget travel, showing you not only how to spend less in New York City, but how to see it in a more authentic way, without sacrificing comfort for savings.

• Cozy, restful accommodations: Instead of spending $300 a night for a chain hotel, live it up in an antiques-filled Fifth Avenue mansion for just $90 (p. 65), or bed down in an art-filled SoHo gallery for $125 (p. 22).

• Food finds: I'll take you to the best of the city's exotic ethnic restaurants and the places where up-and-coming chefs are making names for themselves.

• Sights and attractions: Get in-depth coverage of New York's iconic sights and the gems most visitors miss, plus fascinating self-guided walking tours.

• Insider's New York City: Take a cooking class with the city's top chefs (p. 178), attend a TV taping (p. 180), or get free tango lessons at the Argentine Consulate (p. 179).

Happy Travels,
