'Barrio Chino' means Chinatown in Spanish. Excellent Mexican food and killer cocktails – habanero vanilla margaritas from heaven. It's a bit of a scene so go early; relatively well priced for such a fashionable place

The first place that did rolled ice cream in the neighborhood, and still the best. If you don't get the egg waffle with your ice cream, you might have to come back to NYC

It's called the Gypsy bar – Gogol Bordello used to DJ here and the flavor still skews a bit Balkan, and some Latin, which is pretty awesome because everyone dances to it like it's Rihanna. Typically there's a $10 cover, but you're guaranteed a good night of dancing, music that caters to wide tastes, and good mixing with a wide range of friendly people

This is the closest "grocery store" to the apartment, and the most affordable. It's an old-school indoor pavilion with two grocers (a Latin grocer and an Asian grocer each with different specialties), a cheese shop, a bakery, two butchers', and a lot of other interesting things besides.
