Long Island City (LIC) is the westernmost residential and commercial neighborhood of the New York City borough of Queens. LIC is noted for its rapid and ongoing residential growth and gentrification, its waterfront parks, and its thriving arts community. LIC has among the highest concentration of art galleries, art institutions, and studio space of any neighborhood in New York City. It is bordered by Astoria to the north; the East River to the west; Hazen Street, 49th Street, and New Calvary Cemetery in Sunnyside to the east; and Newtown Creek—which separates Queens from Greenpoint, Brooklyn—to the south. It originally was the seat of government of the Town of Newtown, and remains the largest neighborhood in Queens. The area is part of Queens Community Board 1, located north of the Queensboro Bridge and Queens Plaza; it is also of Queens Community Board 2 to the south.

Queens Food Tours is a unique and memorable food tasting and cultural walking tour of one of New York City's most unexplored and underrated borough-Queens. As Rodney Dangerfield would have put it, "we get no respect". You know that Queens is one of the most ethnically diverse places in the world, but did you know that when it comes to good eats, Queens is king!

Stopped by for a couple of beers (Miles From Nowhere and Humming Dragon). They're both IPAs and very similar actually. Hazy with a good hop bite. The MFN may have a better hop but the Humming Dragon has a spice that's good. Pick your poison!

Great brewery in Long Island City. The atmosphere is very cool and cozy. The staff is friendly and can suggest to you which beer to try. I have also noticed people coming in to buy six-packs of their beers to take away.

A cooking school focused on beginner cooking classes for anyone that wants to learn basic cooking from the beginning. The 3 hour class teaches major techniques including roasting, grilling, sauteing and stir frying through hands-on cooking.
I am a corporate pastry chef. My passion for food and NYC go hand in hand. I seek out the best and more unique places around the city.
