Watched Broadway theater "Hamilton"

It was really good! I can see why it's highly raved on Broadway. Highly recommend. My only regret was not buying tickets earlier as I spent quite a bit to get good seats (front mezzanine) for about $380. But whatever, I've never seen a live musical before and wanted to experience it.

Headed to Times Square right after and it was jam-packed. Ate some classic NYC pizza. 👌 Good times.

Sounds like a stellar time. From which pizza place in all of New York City did you get those slices?

[–] michaelDclarke (1894) 2 months ago

"Carnegie's Pizza" on 41st St by Times Square. I wanted to go to "Joe's Pizza" as it seems to be most popular but huge line-up, so I opted for Carnegie's instead.

I also tried out "NY Suprema Pizza" near 31st today. They are also highly raved too. The one I got technically isn't NYC pizza but still good: Link: https://ibb.co/Q8LXBp7

I used to recommend those visiting New York head over to New Haven to check out Modern and Sally's pizza, but as dangerous as New York has gotten in the last few years, New Haven is worse. Shame.

I don't recall if you said what hotel you were staying at. At least, what neighborhood?

[–] michaelDclarke (1894) a month ago

"Crowne Plaza Hy36th" in MidTown Manhattan. On 36th and 8th.

Great location. Walking distance to Penn Station, Broadway and Times Square.

Nice one Mike 👍

Last stage show I saw was Wicked, like a million years ago. Your post has made me keen to see another one soon.

Good for you for splurging on the experience. You only live once right? Glad you had a great time.

Thanks. Yeah, "Wicked" seems to be the most popular one. "MJ" seems good too.
