NYC Summer Plans

Rehna Perviaz New Yorker, Only-Be, Things to do in New York

There´s just something about summer that makes you want to up the stakes each year. To make this year better than the last; do something worth remembering. Then to repeat this process every year. And why not, summer does come only once a year after all. So make the most of it! The destination I fell for this year is our very own New York City. From beautiful beaches to the best bars and concerts. Live music, fashion, drama, to tastetastic culinary explosions. New York City has it all! What better way to spend summer, than to check out a few of the top notch local scenes this year. If you´re in NYC this year, I suggest you go full throttle and experience the fun a truly American summer can dish out! For the slower starters in the day, go to see Shakespeare in the Park. As an NYC tradition, this event takes place each summer. The city even has their own theatre troupe! This year includes ´The Tempest´ and the ´Cymbeline´. Delacorte Theatre, Central Park; may 27th – Aug 23rd, free entry. Love the pearls and the glory of the Gatsby era? Look no further! Bask in the Grand Affair, as you are cast away with an event full of DJs, Charleston contests, to delectable cocktails and music from Michael Aranella and his Dreamland orchestra. Find yourself swept away with the glorious waves only Jazz can provide! Governers Island; Aug 15-16th If musical elements is what you´re after, New York has a wide array of selections in store. Visit the Afrofunk festival. A popular event... read more

7 Good, Cheap and Cheerful Restaurants in Madrid

Alba Surís Food and Drink in Madrid, Madrilenian, Only-Be

If you’re in Madrid and looking for affordable restaurants for a lunch or dinner fix, you’ll find there’s more here than you ever thought possible: tapas bars, sushi places, or pizzerias… the Spanish capital is jam-packed with restaurants that will appease your hunger for less than 25€. We have compiled our own customized list that takes into account, not just the price but also the quality on offer, so you don’t have to spend twice as much if the first restaurant you visit doesn’t deliver. 1. Mythos Greek Restaurant. This restaurant on Calle Apodaca 20 (Chueca), offers a range of Mediterranean flavors that its regulars swear by. Among its specialties you’ll find Tzatziki, Dolmadakia, Hummus and Feta, as well wines straight from the vineyards of the Peloponnese. We recommend making reservations for groups, as they offer hefty discounts on group menus. 2. Taberna Malaspina. Ravenous for some typical Spanish tapas? If so, then head to Calle Cádiz 9 for raciones, paella and a great atmosphere with a lively terrace. But be sure to call ahead and book a table to avoid unexpected surprises. 3. Anema e Core Italian Restaurant. If you are looking for high-quality Italian cuisine at an affordable price, this is the place for you. The menu ranges from classic Neapolitan dishes to selected specialties from regions like Sardinia and Sicily. However, the undisputed star of their menu is their margherita ‘dop’ pizza with real Mozzarella di Bufala, followed by their delicious deserts. You’ll find it at Calle de las Donados 2, in the historic center of Madrid. 4. Museo del Jamón. With 5 venues across Madrid, these restaurants serve Serrano... read more
