Ask a Brit currently on holiday in New York anything

I'm hoping the 'they'll spit in your food' stuff is just a meme. Most of the waiters have been pretty nice to me though, so I don't think they have. I've tipped pretty generously as well.

If you've tipped you're fine. Really they probably wouldn't spit in your food anyway but I don't know new-yorkers.
Which "tourists spots" were below your expectations? Which were above?
I though Times Square was rather boring. But the Empire State building and Ellis Island were bretty good.

I thought the Rockefeller building was pretty bad ass - better views than the Empire State and less crowded too. I liked The Statue of Liberty and Ellis island as well, however I haven't really found that any attraction is below my expectations. The only con I can think of is the crazy homeless people on the streets.
Banged any American girls yet? They are complete pushovers for an English accent.

I've talked to a few girls on a few of the tour boats/ busses, also in some clothes shops. Most responses have been 'oh wow, I love your accent!' And stuff like that. I also completely charmed some tourist family from Florida on one of the tours who had a really cute daughter - I've gotten some kik usernames and numbers from girls so I'll probably end up seeing if any of them can go out in the coming days. Hopefully I'll score.
Do you plan to apologize for stealing New Amsterdam from the Dutch?

That's part of the charm t.bh

To a certain extend you're actually right. Most of them stick to themselves and don't bother too many people - they're like wildlife here.

It's actually amazing how similar Amsterdam and NY are - especially when it comes to having lazy blacks smoking weed.

When I visited San Francisco a year or so ago I was very surprised how aggressive the homeless are at trying to force you to give them money
