    6. Winnie's, Chinatown

    A total dump, Winnie's is by far THE BEST Karaoke bars in New York.
    One dollar will buy you one song. Tip: give the bartender $5+ and
    your song will jump to the top of the list!

    7. Juliana's, Dumbo

    Named after his late mother, Juliana's marks the triumphant return of
    the original Patsy Grimaldi. Walk to the fulton landing at the end of the street
    for amazing views of lower manahattan.

    8. Bergdorf Goodman, Midtown

    This if for the ladies. If you got both time and money to burn, there is no better place
    than Bergdorf. Go to the basement for amazing makeup/apothecary. Go to the top floor for
    the Braid Bar, hair cuts and the legendary "Bergdorf Blonde".
