    Mexican american born and raised in Corona, Queens. I don’t want to be biased. But Queens is the best borough out of the 5 in NYC! Tourist make the grand mistake to spend their trip at times square. When they can just take a 15 min train ride to Queens and experience so much more! Sarah love your content and charisma!

    Well-hidden Tibetan food looks quite tasty and incredible! Spices can be very deceiving until they kick in moments later! Those are great Manhattan views from Gantry State Park. I haven't been to New York City yet, but I definitely want to try to visit it soon including Queens! Great video!

I've been to the Museum of Modern Image (great Muppets exhibit and fun hands-on stuff) and Lhasa Fast Food (OMG good...it catches up to you though!) Will have to try the others next time...and there will be a next time! Oh, there's an amazing Greek Grocery store in Astoria...it's amazing!

    Thank you Sarah for this video on Queens.
    The last time we were in NYC with my family was in summer 2019.
    We stayed in Long Island City and we absolutely loved it.
    Our hotel - Home2Suites LIC - was very near the Dutch Kills subway and that was very convenient to go to Manhattan, Lexington av station was just two stops away.
    If one day we ended up moving to NYC then LIC is where we would want to live, we love the atmosphere and we could make this our home.
    Now you make me want to come back because I have to discover Murray's cheese bar and cave, my mother used to make cheeses in France and she won national contests several times in the category of Goat cheeses, so I would love to check what Murray's has got to offer with goat.
    Lhasa Fast Food is a place you want to make me try.
    And lastly we were able to go to the Museum of Moving Image in summer 2019 and we loved it.

    I left NY more than 20 years ago I grew up in Queens I go back every year to visit friends and family. It’s very different now population i would guess is more then triple. I didn’t recognize my neighborhood. I grew up in. It had beautiful cobblestone streets with nice house. Now all gone the house replaced with apartment buildings. It’s now very urban and overcrowded .
