## Misc

Dual Specialty: Mostly Indian, some Middle Eastern spices and ingredients, at
1st Ave and 6th St in Manhattan. 

I like the Hungarian Pastry Shop up near Columbia University, very cozy. Think
Coffee is reasonable near Washington Park. Kaffee 1668 (just north of WTC site)
has the best brewed coffee I know of in Manhattan, and good wifi.

The Met Opera House sometimes has standing-room-only tickets, which are
actually pretty reasonable (you get sort of a dedicated lecturn in the back of
the audience), and frequently results in free upgrades to primo seats in the
orchestra. 

The State Island Ferry, Central Library (at 42nd St), High Line, and of course
Central Park are all free and worth visits.
