Going to NYC for the first time for a long weekend with partner. I won’t have time to see everything; what stuff should I go do and or see? Thanks!

True true yeah don’t expect to see everything. I guess narrowing my interests:
And thanks! Was considering listing interests but was worried about missing out on things I didn’t yet know I had an interest in.
History + technical museums:
I’d recommend the AMNH and the Intrepid personally, I think they’re both full of cool stuff.
Food, as others have said, so many options. Doesn’t have to be expensive in any way shape or form, there’s a ton of food from any culture there. If you’re in Manhattan (assuming so tourism wise?) Korea town and China Town have tons of authentic food.
Social: chat away, especially at bars. It’s refreshing to see someone wanting that, not trying to avoid it :) it’s a city with loads of friendly people in my opinion.
Have fun!
Spirited debates in bars probably end in fist fights 🙃
NYC Transit Museum! It’s a sleeper but it’s very cool. If you can still get the tickets, the NYC Tenement Museum, which is in an actual tenement from like a hundred years ago.
Find someone who does in person cooking classes for something you’d like to make, and learn it together.
Friday nights my friend hosts this thing at her place Artsclub which I’ve done a few times and it’s fun. I always meet interesting people there, learn about some art history, and I’ve gotten some art that’s good enough that it’s hanging in my apartment lol. Unfortunately the next event is in September. https://www.artsclubstudios.com/east-village-events
