I'm looking for places to shop in NYC. I already have a few other NYC threads going but wanted a shopping specific thread so people will chime in as the other topics are not on this topic.
Anyways, the goal is to go shopping to places that have products that are unique and less common. Clothing is of little interest to us. Nick nacks and toys for our kids are more important. But we really want stores with things that are not common.
Anyways,
We are staying near Times Square so that area is covered.
I need shopping ideas for noon-5 PM on Saturday. Right now I have Kid Robot(118 Prince Street) as a must which is near Soho. So shopping ideas for near there are requested.
I also hope to hit up Giant Robot (437 E. 9th St) but that is not a must.
An antique book store would be interesting.
RESTAURANTS:
Becca - 355 W 46th St - Italian food (Times Square)
Sounds good but menu does not look very vegetarian friendly. Nothing really for my wife. She eats chicken on occasion but not often.
Tony's DiNapolio - 147 West 43rd - Italian food (Times Square)
A bit pricey but it looks like a nice place with a good menu for my wife.
Carmine's Restaurant - 200 West 44th Street - Italian food (Times Square)
Similar to Tony's in every way but I like Tony's atmosphere more (based on pics)
EDIT:
Done. Made reservations at Tony's
