Stepping OutOne of the many things I love about the weather turning warmer is observing how adept we New Yorkers are at creating squatting privileges on the steps of our buildings. Come lunchtime, for example. No matter what part of the city you may be in, chances are you will come across a series of steps crowded with nine-to-fi vers, in ones and twos, either brown-bagging it or with gyro, hot dog or salad in tow, doing what we do best: Texting, chatting and taking in the urban scenery around us. For my full New York itinerary, go to wheretraveler.com.

MEMORIAL STEPSOne of the city’s lesser-known sites, the Viet-nam Veterans Plaza in Battery Park City is dedicated to the 1,741 New Yorkers who died during the Vietnam War. Walk by any sunny day and you will be sure to find people on the circular steps catching rays, admiring the black granite fountain or even taking a catnap.

INTERNATIONAL STEPSCounting how many languages the word “welcome” appears in LED is part of the fun of the steps of Lincoln Center (over 350), adding more glamour to what may be the most exquisite cultural plaza in the world. While you’re there, you’ll no doubt note the people-watching doesn’t get much better than this.

ARTY STEPSThere is a long line of food carts in front of the Metropolitan Museum of Art on Fifth Avenue, and hanging out on those impressive steps while munching on a snack is part of the fab-ric of springtime in the city. You can often catch a free show as well, as musicians and dancers often debut their acts on the sidewalk.

Exotic Dining in New YorkNew York City is an eating town. From casual to fancy, there are res-taurants that invite you to eat your way around the world, without ever leaving the city. Here are six of the more exotic cuisines that say “mm, mm good” in any language.—Meryl D. Pearlstein

SOUTH AFRICAN At candlelit Braai, try one of the many South African wines lining the shelves with a side of slap chips (quickly cooked soft fries). Small dishes include ostrich sliders and chakalaka (spicy mixed vegetables). For mains, ostrich is pan-seared, with curry mashed potatoes. Finish up with the malva pudding (apricot sponge cake and cream). 329 W. 51st St., 212.315.3315.

ETHIOPIAN Your host-ess Hibilst will educate you in the proper way to eat Ethiopian-style at Bati, using injera (spongy bread) instead of a knife and fork. Dishes at this Brooklyn bistro can be very spicy

so take care in ordering or ask if it‘s possible to turn down the heat. Kitfo is a beef tartare-like concoction; doro wett is a spicy stew with a hard-boiled egg. To cool the heat, try tikil gomen, cabbage with

garlic and ginger. Greek baklava seamlessly connects the pastry’s honey glaze with Ethio-pia’s honey wine. 747 Fulton St., Fort Greene, Brooklyn, 718.797.9696. FILIPINO, ETC. Former Top Chef contestant Leah Cohen has brought her Filipino cooking to New York in a welcoming sliver of a restaurant. Pig and Khao invites you to enjoy the spicy, cilantro-�lled menu that characterizes Filipino, Thai, Vietnamese and Burmese cooking. Sizzling sisig is served on a platter where you do the mixing: a whole raw egg, pork head and chili. The halo-halo dessert is a monstrously messy concoction of shaved ice, leche �an and bright purple ube ice cream. 68 Clinton St., 212.920.4485.

VIETNAMESE Vietnaam is not glamorous, but it serves some of the most authentic cuisine. Enjoy a menu with traditional phos (soups) as well as noodle, poultry, vegetable and meat dishes. There are 11 kinds of banh mi sandwiches, a rarity on most Vietnamese menus. 1700 Second Ave., 212.722.0558.

THAI Peasant Thai cuisine is featured at Qi Esarn, an elaborately decorated restaurant near Union Square. Be adventurous and try fried silkworms and grasshoppers. Neua namtok is a dish made with hanger steak, mint, chilies and rice powder: Side it with coconut

sticky rice cake. 31 W. 14th St., 212.929.9917.

AUSTRALIAN At Flinders Lane, go with the tasting menu, paired with Australian wines. The restaurant imports Australian products weekly, including kangaroo, barramundi and lamb cutlets. Finish with an authentic �at white (Australian co�ee) and ice cream in �avors like wattleseed (from the native Australian acacia tree) and ANZAC crumble (biscuits crum-bled into ice cream and named for the Australia and New Zealand Army Corps). 162 Ave. A, 212.228.6900.

KARAOKE!Go Gangnam in NYC at a Koreatown karaoke bar

Centered on one block of 32nd Street (btw Fifth & Sixth aves.), Koreatown o�ers pri-vate karaoke rooms so you can sing to your heart’s content. Korean karaoke here comes with bottle service at reason-able prices, Korean snacks and lots of international songs to choose from. The clubs o�er hourly rates, usually around $30-$50 per hour for a karaoke room for four people, with an additional per person charge. Two microphones, comfort-able seating, several screens with easy-to-follow lyrics and a background of Korean videos complete the setting. Most clubs open mid-afternoon and stay open until 4 a.m. on weekends, and 2 a.m. during the week. You can skip the bottle fee altogether at Gagopa Karaoke (28 W. 32nd St., 212.967.5353), a BYOB. Players Sports Bar & Lounge (25 W. 32nd St., 212.868.2029) o�ers a happy hour and two-for-one drinks lasting until 9 p.m. MK Kara-oke Lounge (11 W. 32nd St., 212.564.3436) ri�s on a “card” theme with aces and spades gracing doorways, along with Banksyish gra�ti. At Chorus (25 W. 32nd St., 212.967.2244), you’ll �nd a public lounge, rare in Koreatown. Music fans will love the Rolling Stones Room at Karaoke Wow! (10 W. 32nd St., 646.454.1777), or the Beat-les Room at The Music Story (34 W. 32nd St., 212.594.4344), both �lled with posters, re-cords and other paraphernalia from the bands.

WHERE NOW New York

Breaking the Fourth WallAt edgy shows in New York, theatergoers not only watch the show—they become part of it. Here are four immersions you must experience.—Joni Sweet

• With just 15 audience members per show, Then She Fell thrusts visitors into the mad wonderland of Lewis Carroll and his writings. Guests wander around a mysterious mental ward, interacting with characters like Alice, the Hatter and the White Rabbit, and discovering hidden treasures tucked away in locked boxes. The intimate, liminal experi-ence is intriguing and heartbreaking, and will leave you contemplating long after it is over. 195 Maujer St., Brooklyn. www.thenshefell.com

• An extravagant dinner show gets the salacious treatment at Queen of the Night. Sexy performers are hands-on with guests in secret rooms at this grown-up circus, which showcases daring acrobatic stunts, striptease, spinning aerial-ists and other atonishing feats. Tickets include a royal, communal meal that’s a feast not only for the body, but also the senses. Dress your best—this is the queen’s ball, after all. 235 W. 46th St. www . queenofthenightnyc.com

• The newest interactive show from Speakeasy Dollhouse, Ziegfeld’s Midnight Frolic, playfully warns guests of a forgot-ten Broadway theater fi lled with “jazz, liquor and fast women.” The plot centers on the poisoning of a silent fi lm star and exposes the darker side of the American Dream. Guests become part of complex scenes and enjoy showgirls, burlesque and music. 234 W. 42nd St. www .speakeasydollhouse.com

• Masked guests choose their own mysterious adventures as they explore fi ve fl oors of a 1930s luxury hotel at Sleep No More, one of NYC’s most popular interactive shows. The abstract interpretation of Shakespeare’s Macbethinvolves rifl ing through drawers, eavesdropping on characters, chasing actors up and down stairs and witnessing intense scenes unfold at arm’s length. Repeat visitors love seeing new parts of the show, while newbies enjoy get-ting lost in the decked-out space. 530 W. 27th St. www.sleepnomorenyc.com

Answer: You bet. In this age of texts and tweets, emails and blogs, Skype and Instagram, the art of conversation—two people communicating face to face and side by side in the same room—is, thankfully, alive and well at the 92nd Street Y

(1395 Lexington Ave., 212.415.5500). This month’s one-on-ones, attended by 1,000 audience mem-bers in the cultural center’s Kaufmann Concert Hall, strike every chord, including the historical (author David McCullough discussing his new book on the Wright Brothers with fi lmmaker Ken Burns, May 7) and the political (former Secretary of Defense Robert M. Gates telling his story to journalist Char-lie Rose, May 19). Cartoonist Jules Feiff er looks back at his career with novelist Neil Gaiman (May 14), as does actor Neil Patrick Harris with hotelier Jonathan Tisch (May 27). If anyone knew how to converse, it was the late comedienne Joan Rivers, whose catchphrase was “Can we talk?” Her daugh-ter, TV producer Melissa Rivers (above), proves the apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree when she reminisces about her mother with co-host of NBC’s Today Show Hoda Kotb (May 12).—Francis Lewis

Getting Around New York by Bus and SubwayMTA New York City Transit subways connect four of the city’s five boroughs. Blue and white buses run in all five boroughs. Subways run 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Bus or subway questions? Check out www.mta.info or call 718.330.1234.

ABOUT SUBWAYSNYC Transit’s subway system operates 24 lines designated by either a route number or letter. Serv-ing 468 stations along 660 miles of track, approxi-mately 6,400 air-conditioned subway cars will take you to almost anywhere in the city faster than a taxi and at a fraction of the cost.

Subways run every 2-to-5 minutes during rush hours, 10-to-15 minutes during the day and about every 20 minutes between midnight and 5 a.m.

Signs above the platform edge tell you which trains stop there and the direction of travel. Signs on the front of the train identify the route. Subway maps are hung at stations and in every subway car.

Subway station entrances display the routes that stop there; some entrances only provide service in one direction (for example, uptown only or down-town only), so be sure you check before you pay.

Station booth agents can answer questions and sell MetroCard, NYC Transit’s electronic farecard. Subway stations also have MetroCard vending machines. They accept credit/debit cards or cash.

ABOUT BUSESApproximately 5,900 air-conditioned buses pro-vide reliable service on over 300 routes to almost anywhere in the city. Bus stops are located about every two blocks on street corners and are marked by a sign pole with a bus emblem and route number. While some buses run 24 hours a day, most operate between 5 a.m. and 2 a.m. Bus schedules and route maps are posted on most bus stops. All buses are equipped with wheelchair accessible lifts. Check the sign on the front of the bus. If you’re not sure it’s the bus you want, ask the bus operator.

ABOUT FARESThe base subway and local bus fare is $2.75 per ride, payable by MetroCard. Buses also accept exact change (but no dollar bills or pennies).

METROCARDYou can buy MetroCards at any subway station booth. MetroCards are also available at MetroCard vending machines, which are found in many subway stations and at neighborhood stores. Look for the MetroCard sign in store windows or visit www.mta.info/metrocard for a store near you.

There are two kinds of MetroCards: 1) Unlimited Ride—$31 for seven consecutive days and $116.50 for 30 consecutive days. 2) Pay-Per-Ride—The bonus for purchasing multiple rides is 11 percent.

What do you like best about helm-ing the kitchen at ‘21‘? It has been a rewarding challenge to �ne tune this iconic menu while staying true to the classic dishes. Finding ways to incorporate my style and elevate the menu without straying too far from tradition. Of course, none of this would be possible without develop-ing a strong culinary team. That has been one of my favorite parts of the experience so far.

Any signi�cant changes you have made since coming to the restau-rant, or any changes you will be making in the near future?I have just launched my second menu here at ‘21.’ For the most part, we have found our guests to be a bit adventurous. Dishes like the octopus

carpaccio or the lamb Bolognese are being embraced. In the long run, I would like to be remembered as the chef who brought back some �air of the past, such as tableside service.

What do you like best about living and working in NYC? The best part about working here is the sense of urgency and work ethic. You do not see that in Europe and most of the rest of the United States.

Favorite neighborhoods and restaurants? I love Long Island City. The views, the park, the architecture. There is always something happen-ing: events, concerts, etc. I also enjoy the area around Lincoln Center. And Gotham Bar and Grill on E. 12th St. is one of my favorite restaurants.

Sylvain Delpique[execut ive Che f ‘2 1 ’ C l ub ]A native of Albertville, France, Sylvain Delpique, the executive chef of ‘21’ Club, came to the legendary restaurant with an impressive résumé, having worked at Artisanal, David Burke & Donatella and Fishtail restaurants in NYC. Here he talks about his love of octopus, �ea markets and Queens!

An ideal day for Chef Delpique, when he‘s out of his whites and his toque,

looks something like this.

MORNINGMy ideal day would start with Can-nelle Patisserie in Jackson Heights or Long Island City for a coffee and

pastry. In my opinion, they make the best pain au chocolat and croissant

in the city. I also happen to love their croque monsieur.

MID-MORNINGMy next stop would be the Union

Square market to chat with farmers and see what is new and fresh for the season. I would do a little shopping and take some time to think about how I might incorporate my finds

into dishes at ‘21.’

AFTERNOONI might head to the flea market by the Brooklyn Bridge (above). I love

the walk across the bridge and there are always great finds. Perhaps grab

a slice at Grimaldi’s on the way.

EVENINGLater, a romantic dinner at The River

Café with my wife. The views and ambience are simply so lovely.

AFTER DINNERThe perfect day would end at the

Claret Wine Bar in Sunnyside.
