Product Description
The most comprehensive, stylish, and practical guides to New York City’s hippest shopping districts.

As chic as the city itself, these one-of-a-kind maps and guides to the hottest shopping districts in New York City feature select boutiques, caf?s, and salons on every block in the neighborhood. That’s hundreds of haunts for haute couture, exclusive design, and offbeat accessorizing. Fashion. Interior decor. Restaurants. Galleries. Whether you’re looking for sumptuous silk pajamas or the perfect velvet blazer, Egyptian linens or a lacquered credenza, Biedermeier candlesticks or original gifts custom wrapped according to the Japanese art of tsutsumi, the Pratique reveals where to find them, along with the caf?s with hidden back gardens and the bars with the best pomegranate martinis.

Packaged in a handy snap-shut wallet with a color-coded fold-out map, the Pratique cleverly references stores with similar styles to help shoppers find more of what they like. Restaurants are also listed by type and include a price bracket, helping diners quickly pinpoint a favorite cuisine or new culinary experience. Store addresses, phone numbers, hours, and website info are all included. Sleek and affordable, these indispensable neighborhood guides are like nothing else–why look like a tourist, even if you are one?

Best Way to Organize Your Soho Shopping Spree!

The Practique Guide was my Bible during my weekend shopping trip to Soho. The map and descriptions were excellent, informative, and accurate. I highly recommend it for someone who is trying to maximize their shopping experience in a short period of time. Including restaurants was also really useful. The only important piece of information that it does not include are price ranges for the stores. Including a pricing key would better help those looking for designer bargains.
