Theyre being racist. Lower Manhattan and Williamsburg to coneyisland have been gentrified. There are still hold outs in china town selling cheap dumplings and wonton soup. And dupes for cheap
Yea. There's at least 3 night markets In Queens where you can fill up on $10. And in The heights and the Bronx you can find restaurants under the train tracks selling crazy portions for $15
How preposterous to see a black man running around free! My word, they should immediately be put to work and if they refuse hung! That's how we did it in the olden days and we should bring those back! /s
They're the type of people who claim the left are snowflakes but then blowup at something we probably all learned about around kindergarten age: the dreadrd pronouns.
I've lived in both but I don't remember anything distinctive about NJ pizza. The main thing about NY pizza for me is I can walk in, get a slice, and eat it on foot. Though I lived in the NJ suburbs, where "on foot" wasn't really a thing.
Nah quality is pretty evenly distributed throughout the area. Joe & John's is squarely in the red section for example. Honestly, midtown Manhattan is mainly chains and bougie shit that barely resembles NYC style
Making fun of NJ is like "omg epic bacon" or saying "I'm so random". It's really passé and unoriginal. It's extra funny when the speaker is from, like, Mississippi or someplace that's actually bad.
Last time I visited New York I stayed in New Jersey, in the red area, was a 20 minute bus ride from the port authority without traffic. Had Chinese food one night from the red area, is still the best American-Chinese food I ever had.

So what you're telling me is that the good, cheap food that tourists crave are in the red labeled areas? Understood!
After some thought, its New York, so cheap is probably relative.

They're the same type of suburbanites who think more than 3 black people in a half-mile radius constitutes gang activity

You can tell they’re not from New York because they circled part of New Jersey.
Otherwise I’d say it might be from a New Yorker telling people to stick to the tourist areas.
SkybreakerEngineer@lemmy.world · 16 pts · 3d
Really, everyone should stay away from all of New Jersey. Not because of anything racial, but because it's New Jersey

Pro tip: If you want a fight say this in any bar in the four boroughs.
Staten Island doesn’t count because it’s basically New Jersey.

There's not much to see in the red areas. All the tourist spots everyone wants to visit while on vacation are outside them.

As a tourist, I prefer to take the normal areas of a place I visit, not tourist attractions. Just regular streets, parks, shops, ect
Duamerthrax@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1d
Most of that isn't NYC, but stay out anyway.
