Most travelers to NYC never leave Manhattan, for that matter most Manhattanites never leave Manhattan, which is a shame considering all the other boroughs offer. As we mentioned, Julie and Julia is filming in Astoria, Queens today. We gathered a few links for those of you thinking about checking out the set, why not spend the day and make Queens a destination not just a stop over?
Here is a NY Times article about all food, culture, and shopping in Queens. (you will need a free account to access the article)
Here’s a very comprehensive guide to the area from About.com. They list everything from the Top 5 Sandwiches in Astoria to a blog by a local.
And if you really like it once you get there, why not stay? (you will need a log in, NYT article)
