House Guest - Matt

To preface this post, we would like to thank Ben Hansen for giving us a guestbook. We love having people write in it. To all of you that have stayed and written in it, thank you.

Matt is Mark's younger brother and is the first person we are going to feature as a house guest on the blog.

What was your favorite thing you did/saw?

I would have to say the pee-wee herman show on broadway.

What was the strangest thing you did/saw?

Well probably the same as my favorite thing haha, pee wee is awesome but a little weird.

What was the best thing you ate? (or multiple things in this case)

It's probably a toss up between the pastrami sandwich at Katz's and the ever delicious peperoni pizza from Lombardis. (The BYU blow out of Gonzaga that night we had Lombardi's may have helped the taste as well!) The enchiladas suizas from Cafe Habana everything is just so delicious in NYC.

Would you ever want to live in NYC?

I would live in NYC.  I love that there is always something to do somewhere to go and just so many choices for entertainment, activities and food! It may be a little fast paced for my laid back attitude, but it just seems like such an interesting and fun place to live!

Did you have any funny subway/cab/walking experiences?

I think the funny subway experience would have to be picking up Liz's bike from her old apartment. the thing didn't roll very well and it was pretty entertaining getting it up and down all the stairs and on and off the train. The 4 flights of stairs at the end was... entertaining. 

What would you recommend to future visitors? Not recommend?

I would recommend that they have some ideas of places they want to go and especially eat. Go in with an open mind and an empty stomach. Take any food advice that Mark and Liz give because they will never steer you wrong (Thanks Matt).  Lombardis is always a must.

How many times have you been to NYC?

I have been to NY around 10 times.
