Allset- Pick Your Restaurant, Food & Pay… All Before You Arrive
I think as Manhattanites we can pretty much say that equally, we are always on the go. Even something as simple as ordering your lunch can be a massive hurdle, especially with the long lines at the deli and the confusion of what you want to order and so much more. Luckily, there is a brand new mobile app that just launched this past month in New York City that takes care of all of that, including the place, the food, and the payment, all before you even arrive to your location. This app is called Allset, and it is our hot pick for the month of March on Manhattan Digest.

A Manhattanite in San Francisco- The Introduction
For a city that is only 46.9 square miles, and the smallest county in the state, San Francisco sure does make up for it in so many other ways that truly make the city itself one that anyone should visit at least once in their lifetime. I had my first taste of San Francisco two years ago when I visited some high school friends who were living there, and was mystified and amazed at the beauty and serenity that encompasses a truly magical part of our country. This past weekend I visited San Francisco for the second time, and if this was my own version of a sequel, well then it ranks up there with “The Godfather Part Two” as being just as amazing if not better than the first time I went.

Last night at Super Bowl 50, we saw some pretty incredible and amazing moments, both from the sports and music field. Peyton Manning and The Denver Broncos triumphantly won over the favored Carolina Panthers, which is a pretty great punctuation mark for Peyton’s amazing long sentence of a career. Millions of people were ecstatically waiting for the halftime show, in which superstars Beyonce, Bruno Mars and Coldplay rocked the house to commemorate the 50th year of this legendary game being played.
