What a year, New York. We weathered subway delays<\/a> (ugh) and subway flooding<\/a> (ick). We cheered\u00a0at celebrity lookalike contests, admiring the best\u00a0Pedro Pascal<\/a>, Adam Sandler<\/a>\u00a0and Stephen Colbert<\/a>\u00a0looks. We also cheered (and ran and sobbed) at the New York City Marathon<\/a>, clapping for celebs<\/a> and everyday New Yorkers alike.\u00a0<\/p>\n

We braved long lines<\/a> to welcome\u00a0the new Delacorte Theater<\/a> with its stirring performance of Twelfth Night. We also stood in lines for faux flowers<\/a>, a bougie grocery store<\/a>, a photobooth museum<\/a>, bagels<\/a>, you name it. We rooted for the Knicks in the Conference Finals<\/a>, bid farewell (for now) to the Met rooftop<\/a> and went to Labubu raves<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

With so many weird and wonderful moments this year, our editors took some time to reflect on it all and pick the best. We’re unveiling our top picks in food, drink, theater, art, culture and more. So let’s take a trip down memory lane before the New Year’s Ball (it’s brand new and extra sparkly this year<\/a>, by the way) drops on the year that was.<\/p>\n
