Virgil’s Real Barbecue is a Tasty Standout in Times Square
Virgil’s Real Barbecue is one of the only “real” reasons I even dare to enter into tourist trap called Times Square. For as overcrowded as this area can be, there are some surprisingly delicious locations that you can find within it where you escape from the crowds and into a real barbecue heaven type of atmosphere. I took a friend there late last week to experience what Virgil’s had to offer and finished with a happy face and an overly used bib.

Let’s Get to Know Budding & Talented Rapper FreshfromDE
The hip hop industry today, with a couple of exceptions, is pretty lame and boring compared to what it was even 10-15 years ago. There isn’t much that stands out in a see of auto-tune and dudes mumbling.

Pittsburgh’s D Clak Brings the Heat with New Video “Trap Again”
The hip-hop industry has seen somewhat of a decline when it comes to discovering fresh talent who bring a touch of old school with the beats of new school to really get the crowds talking. Pittsburgh’s very own D Clak is one of those rare talents that the industry needs today, and that can be easily stated in his new video and song called “Trap Again” which he recently released.

Vin Sur Vingt in the West Village is a Wine Bar Lovers Dream
Vin Sur Vingt, located in the West Village with other spaces sprawled throughout Manhattan, is exactly what you think of when the term “wine bar” comes into play. The only time where quaint will be described in this review is due to the size of the space inside their location on West 11th Street. Because everything else they provided for us last night packed a ton of flavor, amazing execution, and of course, an amazing selection of wines.

For the 2nd year in a row, Manhattan Digest has asked one of the best questions you can ask a bear lover- “What celebrity bear are you crushing on?” What is a celebrity bear?

It’s always fun when you welcome a new neighbor to the surrounding area, especially one as bustling as Union Square.
