Braintree Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I love SF - Jefferson Airplane, LSD and gays. How hard is it to find jobs there? how is rent? etc .etc Jobs are hard to find and the rent is almost as expensive as NYC. I didn't find a solid job until a year and a half after I moved here. San Francisco is amazing though. Like New York, it has such an incredible energy about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest KY Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I grew up in Philly and hated visiting NYC - too crazy, so many people, noise, etc. My breakthrough moment was going up to see Venetian Snares sometime in 04 I think. The show was supposed to last until 6am so I planned on taking the train back when it started running again. I danced my ass off & ended up meeting some awesome dudes who let me crash at their place. We got off the train in the Bronx at 5am, starving, and just outside the subway stop is a 24hr Dominican place with delicious food, packed, slammed, with people still sweating from the salsa clubs. I fell in love. I've lived there for 5 years now (Brooklyn) and it's rocky at times but I can't imagine moving. I still feel bad about your food experience in NYC Kanakori. I think it has more to do with your mental perception of NYC/America, but if you ever deign to come back, I will give you a list of fantastic meals under $20. And you're right, most food in NYC is fusion of some kind. Like in every city everywhere. I've learned from this thread that "delicious food" is a very relative thing when I'm talking to Anglosaxons. lol you probably don't even have a tongue, stop trolling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanakori Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I'm honest man. English and americans are capable of eating fish with french fries and ketchup, know what i mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KY Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 How much would it cost to visit NYC by vehicle have a nice meal, get around the city a bit by cab or subway and maybe visit a museum? 300 dollars? Nice meal at Superior/Williamsburg: $15 you can also eat banh mi at saigon vietnamese sandwich deli for like $4 I'm honest man. English and americans are capable of eating fish with french fries and ketchup, know what i mean? Fish and chips is UK only, not American. We have Mexicans that put the fish in tacos for us. edit: all jokes aside, no—your idea of American food is based on very insular misconceptions of U.S.A.

Nope, and nope. My point is that kanakori should tone down the ignorant stereotype talk. Also, that NYC and SF are nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanakori Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Man thats a single example. Stereotype exist for a reason, and I confirmed them when I went there, for my part. It's true for ME because I tasted and saw it MYSELF it doesnt need to be true to YOU because it probably isnt, you genuinely enjoy that stuff. btw Is that steve harvey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a single example of a food cart, which is on *every* corner. It just sounds like you went to New York for the sole purpose of attempting to confirm long-standing stereotypes you believed. btw Is that steve harvey lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
