Neighborbee, LLC was set up in 2007, but the spirit of neighborbee was born long before that. I am a New Yorker who has gone to school, worked, and lived in NYC for nearly 15 years. For two of those years, starting in 2002, I had the privilege (and challenges) of living across from Ground …
Q: My girlfriend insists that we go to visit her parents in Arizona for Christmas. I don’t want to go because I think it needs to be cold to be Christmas. I would much rather get her to stay here and spend the day with my family in New Jersey. How do I do that? …
This past weekend I sipped strong alcoholic drinks out of teacups in a speakeasy hidden behind a toy shop in the Lower East Side. I also enjoyed a bucket of beer while soaking up the summer sun in the middle of a traffic circle on the Upper West. I walked from my friend’s apartment …

Compared to the flashy Manhattan restaurant scene, Lantern in Gramercy is very much a quiet neighborhood contender when …
Did everyone have a great Christmas? Did you Jews in my audience enjoy Valkyrie on the day of Jesus’ birth? Talk about a double whammy, Hollywood!
Welcome to my first Hive Cooking post on neighborbee. What’s my deal? Well, I’m not a pro, I’m not officially trained even. I just love food- cooking it, eating it, learning about it. And I’m cheap too, and lazy. Definitely lazy. I’m more apt to cook food that’s easy and flavorful, and not too expensive. …
On the border of Harlem and Morningside Heights, next to the unending Fredrick Douglas circle redesign at 110th Street, you’ll find a unique neighborhood café that’s already gone through a name change in its five short years.

My search for Jonas Bendiksen ended in the nick of time. I was slightly dismayed, as I prepared to leave the Aperture Gallery, which hosted Magnum’s Holiday Book Party.
