New York is the best city for foodies

Every big city prides on its assorted delicacies, but when it comes to New York, the story is different and out of this world.

The rich delicacies New York boosts came from its cultural diversity.

There are many migrants from different parts of the world to New York.

This is just a little example because I do not want to list a lot of other countries.

You should understand that New York did not just borrow its assorted rich foods from other countries; the city developed its foods as well.

The city also reinvented some staple delicacies from many other countries.

For instance, the New York-style pizza is a well-loved food around the world, just like Sicilian pizza.

Waldorf Salad, the Reuben sandwich, hotdogs, hamburgers, and Eggs Benedict all originated from New York.

All of these things can be found everywhere in New York.

This wonderful architecture is the reason New York is pronounced on the world map.

It is as modern as the designs of the 1920s.

This made the buildings was designed to retain their wonderful looks, because nothing can be better than this architectural system that is so current and futuristic.

Most of the bars are open for business till around 4 am.

Some nightclubs stay much later even.
