Customer Reviews

This guy knows what he's talking about.

Gerry Frank is a local boy (Portland, OR) and keeps us informed about where to go in Oregon, but he also knows "all the right stuff" about New York. He is definitely a man to follow when it comes to finding a great restaurant and more.

A 'Must-Have' For Anyone Going to New York City

My wife and I went on our first trip to New York recently. A friend told us about Gerry Frank's book, Where to Find It, Buy It, Eat It in New York. The book has all the usual information about museums, tours and hotels. But it also has information about the little out-of-the-way and unique places that we wouldn't have otherwise known about, such as the rare book store hidden away on the second floor of a Manhattan building , and the store that only sells purses and handbags but sells thousands of them. We went to three restaurants he recommended, and they all matched his recommendation. This is a book you can trust. It tells you about the good hotels and restaurants, the high-priced ones that are worth it and the ones that aren't, the ones that are the best value, and the ones to avoid. All written in an entertaining, easy-to-understand way. Rhonda and I have the book saved in a special spot, waiting for our next trip to New York.

Incredibly Useful

One of the handiest aspects of this book is the series of walking tours that Frank suggests. They are manageable and organized by neighborhood, as well as by day of the week. This is especially useful, since shops, museums, etc. may be closed on odd days. This book is far more useful than the average "guide" to a city. A wealth of well-organized information. Bargain hunters will be pleased, too. Indispensable.

An exceptional, comprehensive guide to the Big Apple!

This is a well organized, and comprehensive guide to all the wonders of New York City. The wide range of valuable information is incredible, there appears to be an answer for every visitor's question. It is a 'must own' book for every visitor, worker or resident of the Big Apple.
