Try to picture a time when you are newly arrived in America. There's little or no work available and the only available housing is one small smelly room that has to fit your entire family and the rats. That's what is was like for immigrants years ago the Tenemant museum does a good job to make you realize that.
The museum is small but offers excellent informative material. Interesting place to visit.

Mariebelles' hot chocolate is rich and creamy and you haven't lived until you tried their Aztec hot chocolate. One of the better kept secrets in New York. Just one sniff inside the store and you will be transported back to a time when all that mattered in your life was candy. Beautifully wrapped chocolate in colorful boxes line the store and the cocoa bar is a wonderful place you can relax and enjoy your hot chocolate.

I may be a bit prejudice since I live in Staten Island but I believe we have one of the better malls in the five boroughs. We carry all the major shops plus we have great sales, good location and clean bathrooms. Throw in the occasional live entertainment in the center of the mall and who can ask for anything more?

First off this is not a store for marmalade. It's a vintage shop that specializes in vintage clothes from the seventies and eighties if you consider the eighties vintage. From cocktail dresses to funky town shoes you never know what you can find at marmalade. Great selection of outfits and decently priced. Sometimes.

They sell really cute clothes for kids. The prices are fairly priced. I'ts a very friendly upbeat place where you can browse for hours as long as you don't have a cranky kid in tow. The sales people are very friendly. You can dress your kids up here in very cute outfits. Just don't tell the other kids that they are wearing an outfit. They might get beat up.

You cannot call yourself a chocolate lover until you have sitten down at one of their tables and had a cup of their hot chocolate. Willy Wonka look out! Not only do they have some of the best chocolate in the city they also have classes that teach you how to make the chocolate for yourself and sometimes offer free samples of their chocolate. All Willy Wonka has is those Oompa Loompas and after awhile don't you get tired of all that singing. Do ba de do!

For a cheap admission price of $5 you see the freakish wonders of the world on display in Freakatorium. Of course whats real and what not is entirely up to you. My guess:
Sammy Davis glass eye--Fake
10 legged spider--Real
2 headed turtle--On the fence
If you like to have the bejesus scared out of you or just like to be creeped out then maybe this is your scene. For me I'm going home and try not think about that shrunken head and wonder what happened to the rest of its body.

What is it about the thought of finding a really good pair of leather boots at an affordable price that can make the most sane woman lose her mind? It must be something chemical. Eitan's is a great place to shop for shoes year around. The prices are always good and all the shoes and boots are from Italy and made with leather. Yummy Yum Yum!
