replying to u/tktam: You have just about described me & you have hit some of my favorite restaurants & things to do in Manhattan! Some other stops, I have enjoyed in case you haven’t been to them yet. Might not logistically fit in this trip To see https://merchantshouse.org/ see this one asap just in case the development project next door is allowed to move forward. At minimum they will have to close while it goes on, at worst they will lose forever some of the amazing original details. [https://www.nyhistory.org/](https://www.nyhistory.org/) Museum of the NYC historical society really well put together exhibits as well as a permanent collection that has a unique look at the city https://www.albertine.com/ cultural services of the French embassy. In the former Whitney mansion. Gorgeous location, be sure to see the reassembled & preserved Venetian room also check out the 2nd floor ceiling of the French English bookstore for the lovely celestial mural. If you read French or are learning this is probably one of the best selections French language books for both adults & children in the city. https://www.bowne.co/ Bowne & co stationers one of the oldest businesses in the city, stationary store, letterpress & history come to life https://www.argosybooks.com/ argosy book store an old & rare book wonderland. Could wander for hours & that undefinable smell Food Le French Diner 188 Orchard. No real website. Go early & get in line. Worth it.
