The New York City DietNew York City is the easiest—and the hardest—place to lose weight. Easiest because people walk everywhere here: You can get your pedometer up to 10,000 steps in no time. Conversely, with the mind-numbing food choices available in the roughly 18,000 restaurants here offering every imaginable cuisine, you may think your willpower needs to be akin to that of a Navy SEAL in training to get through this city and go home fitting into the same jeans. But, if you are deter-mined to leave a few pounds thinner, try my pre-holiday diet tips, below! For my full New York itinerary, go to wheretraveler.com.
>> MORNINGOur durable Citi Bikes, available at hundreds of docking stations around the city, are a cheap (a 24-hour access pass is $9.95), efficient and calorie-burning method of getting around, and, on a mild November day, it is simply a great way to view New York. The bikes can be rented from, and returned to, any station in the city.
>> AFTERNOONLivestrong.com states that “sushi comes pretty close to being the perfect weight-loss food.” Fresh, minimally processed fish, steamed rice and veggies: In my book, that rates yummy and ridiculously healthy. My favorite places for sushi? Atlantic Grill, Nobu, Sushi Zen, Blue Ribbon Sushi and Tomoe Sushi.
>> EVENINGOK, so you’ve done your cardio via the bike and want to get some strength training in. No worries: Most hotels in the city offer some kind of gym or workout room, and you can also purchase a day pass at several clubs around the city, including David Barton Gym, Exceed Physical Culture and Chelsea Piers.

GANSEVOORT MARKET A large skylight illumi-nates the communal wooden tables at Gansevoort Market. Tacombi sells tacos out of a converted Volkswa-gen van; for seafood, try Ed’s Lobster Bar. 52 Gansevoort St., no phone
GOTHAM WEST MARKETDining at long benches makes for a cozy meal-time at this intimate, industrial-style food hall. Check out The Cannibal, a beer and butcher shop special-izing in charcuterie and small plates; and El Col-mado, serving classic Spanish tapas. 600 11th Ave., 212.582.7940
LE DISTRICTNear the World Trade Center site is this sleekly designed grocery, café and patisserie. Circular wine bar Le Comptoir serves champagne and oysters right next to a boucherie cooking up steak frites, andouille sausage and more. 225 Liberty St., 212.981.8588
URBANSPACE VANDERBILT Directly across from Grand Central Terminal, this bustling center o� ers artisanal baked goods, seafood (Red Hook Lobster Pound), pizza from Roberta‘s and Greek o� erings at Amali Mou, where you can sip on a compli-mentary glass of wine while waiting for your housemade gyros. 230 Park Ave., 212.529.9262
CITY KITCHENOn the second � oor of the Row NYC hotel, this corner venue o� ers tru� e cheddar pretzels from Sigmund’s Cart and ramen from Kuro Obi. White subway tiles and reclaimed wood give a distinctly New York look to the space. 700 Eighth Ave., 646.863.0901
TODD ENGLISH/PLAZA HOTEL FOOD HALLSFood halls are so in vogue they’ve dis-placed former fashion boutiques in the base-ment of the Plaza Hotel, where you’ll � nd two: the Todd English Food Hall and, on the same � oor, the hotel’s own Food Hall, which o� ers open-face sandwiches from Tartinery, such as roasted pear with melt-ed Fourme d’Ambert blue cheese, honey, walnut and arugula on sourdough. 768 Fifth Ave., 212.759.3000
EATALYCelebrity chefs Mario Batali and Lidia Bastianich are partners in Eataly, where their cookbooks jostle for space alongside fresh produce. Try a shared salami and cheese platter in La Piazza: Ornate marble alcoves and mosaic-tiled � oors evoke a visit to Rome. 200 Fifth Ave., 212.229.2560
New Yorkers are hungry for European-style food halls, where they happily share tables with strangers. Lively indoor culinary marketplaces with open kitchens have grabbed the attention of both locals and visitors as of late. Here they choose from multiple vendors and cuisines, appealing to the city’s eclectic mix. Check out some of these prime destinations for your own slice of foodie heaven.
TODD ENGLISHThe celebrity chef explains what it takes to open a food hall in New York.
“After seeing classic food halls in Europe like Harrods, I wanted to open one. I wanted to make it more about a world experience for the melting pot that New York is. In our seated area, you can pretty much get anything you want from anywhere in each station. That sets us apart. Food is the new fashion. People meander through the food hall, discov-ering di� erent things. When I opened my � rst restaurant in 1989, we had a communal table, where people told me they’d made longtime friends. This was well before social media. Now, I think, people are more used to the idea of the communal way of living. ”There’s also a growing interest in people wanting to know more about food and cooking. At the open kitchens in the food hall, people feel good about watching their food getting prepared. My kids—millennials—are growing up with a lot more knowledge about food. My son, Oliver, who is 25, is in the business with me. “I really relish learning new things, too. New Yorkers are demanding, rightly so, be-cause they know what’s going on. We, as restaurateurs, have to respond to that. “The other day, some-one introduced me as a “restaurateer”—which I kind of like! It’s more appropriate, like a musketeer—because you really have to � ght, every day, to try and be innovative.”

That’s Retail-tainment!Our stores are not just retail destinations: They can be entertaiment themselves!
M&M’S WORLD The 24,000-square-foot, color-ful “glass box” of what is argu-ably the most beloved candy in the world o� ers a lot more than just the iconic button-shape shells � lled with chocolate. The store, which has a 50-foot, “wall of chocolate” made up of 72 candy � lled tubes, also sells themed clothing, dishes, watches and more. And the kids will love this: The Personal-ized Printer allows shoppers to create customized M&M’s in the store, using images or personal greetings for their candies. 1600 Broadway, 212.295.3850
NIKETOWNWhether you are a serious ath-lete or a follower of the current sneaker-as-fashion-statement craze, you will want to stop in at this towering temple to all things sporty. The second and third � oors have treadmills for joggers to test out running shoes while sales specialists do a running analysis; the fourth � oor has a basketball cage, where kids can try on shoes, run around and shoot a few hoops. And, needless to say, the sneaker selection is insane. 6 E. 57th St., 212.891.6453
TOYS ‘R’ USThe company’s international � agship store in Times Square is a 110,000-square-foot temple to tots. A 60-foot indoor Ferris wheel lets you ride in 14 indi-vidually themed cabs (Barbie, Cabbage Patch Kids, Scooby- Doo, etc.); and in the Jurassic Park area, the 34-foot-long
animatronic T. Rex lets out a mighty roar. Right behind the dinosaur, you’ll � nd kits and tools that teach children about excavating dinosaur fossils. 1514 Broadway, 646.366.8800
BOOKSTORESAlong with both mass-market and rare titles, many book-stores o� er free lectures and events. On Nov. 9, the Strandpresents actor John Leguizamo reading from his new graphic novel, Ghetto Klown! (828 Broadway, 212.473.1452); Riz-zoli Bookstore holds a book signing of Electric Fashion by Frederic Aranda, Christine Suppes and Ken Downing on Nov. 19 (1133 Broadway, 212.759.2424); and, on Nov. 24, at Book Culture (536 W. 112th St., 212.865.1588), Richard Baxstrom and Todd Meyers talk about their book, Realizing the Witch: Science, Cinema and the Mastery of the Invisible.

One of the displays from The Hunger Games:
The Exhibition
Showstoppers!When Saturday Night Live fi rst aired on television in 1975, New Yorkers became instantly addicted: Who could be without the Conehead family or Chevy Chase as a bumbling Gerald Ford? At Satur-day Night Live: The Exhibition, videos highlight SNL’s greatest moments, but it also pays homage to the writers, costume designers and actors of the comedy show. Scripts, rewritten up until the last minute, give you a glimpse into how much sweat and toil went into the productions. If you love SNL,this is a must-visit. 417 Fifth Ave., 646.979.4120
DISCOVERY TIMES SQUAREA fan of The Hunger Games franchise? Then you will not want to miss: The Hunger Games: The Exhibi-tion. Original costumes and props, detailed set recreations and furnished rooms reimagine Katniss Everdeen‘s life. In true fan form, you also get to take a picture in a Hunger Games cape (giving the three-� nger salute). 226 W. 44th St., 866.987.9692
MADAME TUSSAUDSWhen Madame Tussaud started working as a wax modeler in Paris in the late 1700s, I doubt she envi-sioned the empire of wax museums she was going to create. The Times Square branch boasts � gures that cross every industry. Cozy up to writer Dorothy Parker, or feel diminished

Getting Around New York by Bus and SubwayMTA New York City Transit subways connect four of the city’s five boroughs. Blue and white buses run in all five boroughs. Subways run 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Bus or subway questions? Check out www.mta.info or call 718.330.1234.
ABOUT SUBWAYSNYC Transit’s subway system operates 24 lines des-ignated by either a route number or letter. Serving 469 stations along 660.75 miles of track, approxi-mately 6,400 air-conditioned subway cars will take you to almost anywhere in the city faster than a taxi and at a fraction of the cost.
Subways run every 2-to-5 minutes during rush hours, 10-to-15 minutes during the day and about every 20 minutes between midnight and 5 a.m.
Signs above the platform edge tell you which trains stop there and the direction of travel. Signs on the front of the train identify the route. Subway maps are hung at stations and in every subway car.
Subway station entrances display the routes that stop there; some entrances only provide service in one direction (for example, uptown only or down-town only), so be sure you check before you pay.
Station booth agents can answer questions and sell MetroCard, NYC Transit’s electronic farecard. Subway stations also have MetroCard vending machines. They accept credit/debit cards or cash.
ABOUT BUSESApproximately 5,900 air-conditioned buses pro-vide reliable service on over 300 routes to almost anywhere in the city. Bus stops are located about every two blocks on street corners and are marked by a sign pole with a bus emblem and route number. While some buses run 24 hours a day, most operate between 5 a.m. and 2 a.m. Bus schedules and route maps are posted on most bus stops. All buses are equipped with wheelchair accessible lifts. Check the sign on the front of the bus. If you’re not sure it’s the bus you want, ask the bus operator.
ABOUT FARESThe base subway and local bus fare is $2.75 per ride, payable by MetroCard. Buses also accept exact change (but no dollar bills or pennies).
METROCARDYou can buy MetroCards at any subway station booth. MetroCards are also available at MetroCard vending machines, which are found in many subway stations and at neighborhood stores. Look for the MetroCard sign in store windows or visit www.mta.info/metrocard for a store near you.
There are two kinds of MetroCards: 1) Unlimited Ride—$31 for seven consecutive days and $116.50 for 30 consecutive days. 2) Pay-Per-Ride—The bonus for purchasing multiple rides is 11 percent.

56 W H E R E N E W YO R K I NO VEMBER 2015
You’ve done it before, but are you excited about appearing at Carne-gie Hall for the comedy festival? It’s the one and only Carnegie Hall! I highly doubt future President Trump will attend, although, doing an 80-city tour certainly puts me every-where in the “Real America.” I will have stories from all over the country, including towns neither one of us has heard of. This show will be so
My New York[ W H E R E I N S I D E ]
Kathy Grif� n[Comed ian ]In 2013, Kathy Griffi n was inducted into the Guinness Book of World Records for starring in 20 televised stand-up specials, more than any other comedian in history. She has penned a memoir, appeared on TV shows including Seinfeld and Law and Order: SVU, and is performing at Carnegie Hall on Nov. 12 as part of the New York Comedy Festival. She recently chatted with us about the Kardashians and wearing fl ats in Lower Manhattan.
M Y P E R F E C T D AY
MorningWell, I’m a comic, so my mornings start
at around noon. I love the breakfast at Norma’s at Le Parker Meridien in
Midtown. Keep in mind, you can go to [the] Dominique Ansel [bakery] a couple of hours after they open and they will have run out of cronuts. But they have a very decadent selection
of second choices. Avocado toast might sound boring until you’ve had
Dominique make it for you.
AfternoonCall my 95-year-old alcoholic mother
Maggie and see how far down her box of wine she is. Once I � nd out she’s okay, it’s time for a nice, long walk. You’re in NYC, for goodness
sake! Walk around Central Park—you heard me—all around the park! You
will see outdoor yoga classes, people on a bench that have probably met through Tinder, and one of my per-
sonal favorites: single dads with three screaming children. Never gets old!
EveningIf it’s Nov. 12 and it’s 8 p.m., you are at my show at Carnegie Hall. If it is any other night, you are either sobbing
because you have not purchased tick-ets to my show yet or furiously calling Mayor de Blasio to beg for house seats
for my show. Other than that, I’d go with a Broadway show, an O� -Broad-way show, a piano bar or, hell, screw
all of it and just go to drag night at the gay bar of your choice!
improvisational, I will not know what I am going to say until about 7:58 p.m. New York audiences are smart and very diffi cult to shock. I have my work cut out for me.
You’re a Midwesterner: How would you describe coming to New York City when you � rst started in show business? As I am from Forest Park, Illinois, you New Yorkers must understand that New York City felt like Mars to me the fi rst time I came here for work. I was a freckly, wiry-haired redhead who was walking around the city like Crocodile Dundee.
Favorite places here in New York?I love the pizza at Rubirosa on Mul-berry St. I’ve become a Downtown person. I think I may gravitate to the Downtown area more now because it is acceptable for a woman to wear fl ats. New York is a great walking city, and God love Sarah Jessica Parker, but I do not know how she or Blake Lively walks more than three feet in heels. I mean, can’t you just get the groceries in your sneakers, ladies? Hook a sister up!
What are three “must-dos” for a visitor here?1. Go see Kathy Griffi n. I hear she’s at Carnegie Hall on Nov. 12 and she’s hilarious. 2. Don’t look anyone in the eye on the subway. Least of all Ander-son Cooper. 3. Walk the Brooklyn Bridge with the Kardashian of your choice. They are all over the place. It’ll be easy.
