One day in NYC what are the top 10 things you would do/see/cheap places to eat? -

May I recommend the following.-Empire State Building-Rockefeller Center and the Top of the Rock Observation Deck-Times Square (no trip is complete without a visit to the Crossroads of the World )-Central Park-Brooklyn Bridge (you can walk across it too)-A Ride on the Staten Island Ferry (its free and you can see the Statue of Liberty as the ferry crosses the harbor)-visit the museumsIn regards to place to eat in New York City. There are thousands of restaurants in the Five Boroughs of New York City. Depending on your taste, your budget and your preferred location, may I recommend the link below.http://www.menupages.com/ -- MenuPages.com is the one of the best website on the online. It included menus with prices, as well as restaurant reviews.Good luck and Bon appetit!

Check out nycgo.com for more info about events (many are free!) during your visit. In addition to the previous answers, I would suggest ala carte dining - great foods can be had at many corner cart vendors. I prefer the view from the Top of the Rock to the Empire State Building for 2 reasons - you can see Central Park (not visible from ESB) and you can see the Empire State Building! Try the Museum of Modern Art after 4pm on Fridays - it s free. Check out the amazing architecture of the many churches - St Patricks , Trinity Church at Wall Street (many famous citizens buried in the graveyard here - Clement Clarke Moore - wrote the Night Before Christmas), Cathedral of St John the Divine - all free. Check out their websites - they offer free concerts as well. 1/2 price Broadway Show tickets available same day of show at TKTS in Times Square. Chinatown is always a bargain as is Jack s 99cent store on 32nd Street. Central Park is great, holiday store windows at Sak s, and others along 5th Avenue are spectacular as is Macy s in Herald Square. Enjoy!

How much spending money do I need for disneyworld. We have paid for dw ticketsflight and hotel stayin for 3day? -

If all the major expenses are taken care of all you need is spending money for the day for food, entertainment, travel and shopping. I d budget about $60 - $75 per day per person.

You ll probably want about $100 on hand, but if you ll be paying with credit card, you could just not bring any money. It costs a lot to buy lunch and things, so if you cant take a credit card with you for whatever reason, in total you should bring 250.

Is the food in Disney World expensive? -

I mean not in the restaurants, but turkey legs, mickey s ice cream, that stuff, and can we bring our own food into the parks?

Hey. Me my family are going to Disney in this early Feb. and I have been doing tons of research about it, to keep to a budget, if not I know we will go crazy. I m sure you are looking to pay, for side items, ( turkey legs, ice cream, dipping dots, etc ) On average atleast $5. You can bring your own food also inside Disney, or that s what I have been told. Because I m pregnant, and still will be when we go, + we will have a 2 year old, and we plan on carrying little water bottles to make sure we are hydrated, + a few snacks. The actural resturants inside disney aren t really too high, from some of the menus I have seen, for a Princess Character Meal ( that we plan on doing with our daughter ) Is. About $50 per adult. Our 2 year old will be free. So $100 for a dinner that we will be able to eat with the princess, and the fairys + it also comes with a photo package. But note to self; that is a CHARACTER MEAL, others you can get a nice dinner plate for $10-$15 bucks.

You can take your own food and the price for turkey legs, hamburgers and ice cream is expensive. My wife and I sometimes buy a kids meal. The adult meals are huge and a kids meal is usually just the right size and the price is lower. Plus eat breakfast in your room. Buy milk, fruit and cereal bars this is what we do and it helps keep the cost down. Have fun and here are some links to Disney at Christmas.

Yes, food is expensive and often overpriced at all the Disney parks. However, you can only bring in a limited amount of food from outside, they will not let you bring in a cooler or huge lunch box. If you can afford it I recommend you just avoid the hassle of bringing in your own food and eat at one of the quick service restaurants, dont splurge on ice cream and snacks as you will spend alot of money if you do that.

We ve been to WDW 13 times. If you stay on site you can buy a mug in the food courts that can be refilled throughout your stay. We bring our own snacks (granola bars, fruit nut snacks, rice krispy treats, microwave popcorn). We also bring mini muffins, Pop Tarts, english muffins for breakfast. In the evening we have cookies that we ve brought with us, hot chocolate in our mugs. We bring our own water bottles fill them before going to the parks.They have toasters microwaves in the food courts. You don t want to miss the turkey legs. They are fantastic! They do have some fast food places throughout WDW that aren t that pricey. Have Fun!

This site has menus with actual prices: http://allears.net/din/dining.htm .I don t think Disney food is any more pricey than you find in any other amusement venue.Yes, you can bring in some food. Visit www.allearsnet.com for answers to all your Disney questions, and have a great trip!

oh my goodness yes. I went wit my best friend this summer and every little snack/brownie/candy was above $5... The drinks, everything is expensive.. But its a wonderful place, so save every penny becuz its worth it there!

I havent been there since 2002 but a bottle of Coke 20 oz was 3.00THEN. I took small snacks, like beef sticks, tiny can of pringles etc ..so my load got lighter as the day passed.We ate breakfast before, and dinner after we left.

YES! really expensive, only buy a couple snakcs a day, and bring your own food.

u can take ure own food. its better the food not worth buying.
