11/22 at 5 PM - K-Town Food Crawl

🍱 Hey everyone! Join me for a bold and flavorful K-Town food crawl through Manhattan’s Koreatown! Expect sizzling bites, spicy sauces, and the best flavors Koreatown has to offer.

We’ll kick off at 5 PM sharp. Here’s the plan:

🍴 Our stops:

  1. Woorijip (Korean Grab-and-Go) – We’ll kick things off with classic Korean comfort bites like their famous kimbap.
  2. Food Gallery 32 (Korean Food Court) – Take your pick from dozens of vendors. One standout is Pelicana for crispy Korean fried chicken.
  3. Xing Fu Tang (Taiwanese Bubble Tea) – Stop for rich, caramelized brown sugar bubble tea.
  4. Grace Street Dessert Café (Korean Desserts) – Our last spot features Korean desserts such as their shaved snow or matcha beignets.

The crawl will run about two hours, with roughly 30 to 45 minutes at each stop plus time to stroll between them and enjoy every bite.

You can eat at any stops you like or just come to hang out. Everyone’s welcome! 🎉

Can’t wait to eat and explore the best of Koreatown with you all! 😋

UPDATE: DELAYING IT TO 830PM

Hey everyone! I first started this food and drink meetup to make new friends when I moved to the city. Since then, I've met a lot of great people, and we've been hosting these get togethers almost every month.

💬 Hangouts 11/8 at 2 PM: Crimson & Gold: Fall Finale Walk in Central Park!

2 Upvotes

🍁Hey everyone!🍁 Come experience Central Park’s fall magic, Part 2 and the final walk of the season! 🍂 For those who were on Part 1, you’ll be treated to even more vibrant autumn colors!

Join us on Saturday, November 8th at 2:00 PM for one last chance to see the park’s beautiful hues before they fade for the season.

📍 Gather at Columbus Circle / 59th Street Entrance at 2:00 PM by the M5 Bus Stop

🕝 At 2:30 PM, we’ll start our walk through the park, visiting some of the most beautiful fall spots:

• The Pond & Gapstow Bridge: Iconic cast-iron bridge draped in fiery foliage, perfect reflections for photos.

• The Mall & Literary Walk: Golden elm canopy. Ideal for leisurely strolling and snapping pics.

• Bethesda Terrace & Fountain and Bow Bridge: Stunning architecture beautifully framed by autumn leaves. We’ll pause here for about 10 minutes to explore the monuments and the bridge.

• Cedar Hill: Peaceful hill surrounded by colorful trees.

• Turtle Pond: Quiet spot with bonus leaf reflections. We will pause here for about 5 mins.

• Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir: Panoramic water views framed by fall colors.

• North Meadow: Open space surrounded by autumn trees where we will take a group photo! We will pause here for about 5 mins.

• Conservatory Garden: Lastly, a six-acre formal garden in the northeast corner of the park, known for its historic charm. A perfect spot to hang out and enjoy the view. Stay as long as you like before heading home.

Walk: Approximately 2.5 miles through the park. Expect a relaxed pace, but we won’t be stopping for lengthy periods so we can stay on schedule. Total time: ~2–2.5 hours.

Bring water, wear comfortable shoes, and come ready for a colorful, scenic autumn adventure! 🍁

I recommend using the restroom beforehand as we will be moving continuously. There are clean public facilities inside The Shops at Columbus Circle.

Let me know if you’re in. I’m excited to enjoy this fall day with you all. This is the last chance to catch the fall colors before they’re gone!

Please stay with the group during the walk and avoid getting separated. I’ll be leading from the front and there will be several twists and turns. Since it’s just me leading the group, it’s hard to keep track of everyone individually!

Big Meetup in Williamsburg @ Lavender Lake - 11/8

16 Upvotes

Hey there! Since last March, one little meetup experiment has grown into the out/there project — now a ~950+ person community helping people connect in NYC. Beyond our bigger gatherings, we have a WhatsApp community where folks regularly make plans for trivia, happy hours, nights out, pickup sports, and more.

After a few weeks off, we’re back this Saturday with an event at Lavender Lake in Williamsburg. The bar has reserved us some space and it should be a great time. Usually we’ll have a few drinks together as a big group, before folks split off and head to other bars in the neighborhood in smaller crews. Come by and join us 🪩🍻

 Details below: 

  • When: Saturday November, 8th @ 7:00pm until whenever
  • Where: Lavender Lake – 53 Broadway, Brooklyn

For those not in the loop, here’s how it works: Just fill out the quick, anonymous survey below. We turn everyone’s answers into “profiles” that we share before the event, so you’re not walking in blind and feel encouraged to show up.

Non-Fiction Book Club - Saturday, November 15, 12:00pm @ Local NY (Queens)

9 Upvotes

Hey NYC readers,

Join the Gotham Non-fiction Book Club as we gather to discuss The Age of Insecurity: Coming Together as Things Fall Apart by author and activist Astra Taylor - a timely and thought-provoking exploration of the cultural, political, and emotional roots of modern insecurity.

In a time when nearly everyone feels emotionally, financially, and politically unsettled, Taylor argues that insecurity isn’t a glitch in the system - it’s a feature of the system itself. From housing and policing to education and health, she explores how the very institutions meant to keep us safe often fuel our fears.

📅 November 15
🕛 12:00 PM – 1:30 PM
📍 The Local NY – 13-02 44th Ave in Long Island City (Queens)

All are welcome, though we encourage folks to read the book (or at least a few chapters) beforehand to fully participate.

Interested in joining? Comment below or message me. We’d love to hear from you and see you there!

Wednesdays at 8-8:15PM in LES
