1) See the store displays for Saks, Lord & Taylor, etc...
2) Too many places to list, but Union Square Park has a neat seasonal market for gifts after thanksgiving on the south side.
3) Ktown, E Vill
4) At home, where it's warm and there's champagne and caviar.
5) illegal, sorry.
6) Buy pastries at Venieros, or get a cake and Blackhound Bakery

I often go to Dyker Heights in Brooklyn, to see the Christmas decorations. Anyone know any other hidden gems like this in the city?

I always liked the tree in Rockefeller Center even with the crowds and the Dyker Heights lights are incredible. I went last year on Christmas Eve, but I won't be this year since the Giants are playing the Jets.

i honestly never been there .for what i heard thats the main atraction of NYC, and the maycs parade. i need a suggestion ,due to im not trusted with the supermarkets,specially with meats.a good place to get a grade A turkey. i dont know if its me,but a lot of markets that i go ,the meat groceries are very expensive,but the quality aint that good, sometimes you can tell if the place is good for shop when you see the chicken,a lot of times i see them on a funny yellow color witch i refuse to buy it.any suggestions?

in terms of neighborhood,with decorations the BRONX was dead on that type of spirit xmas,the only decoration was snow,salt and a lot of angry people. im just trying to find a good atraction for a family walk.

I've seen a lot of local farmers selling free range organic turkey/duck/geese/chicken at the Union Square Farmer's market. Check it out on a Saturday, that's when most of the vendors are around. You may want to talk to a few of them and find out if you need to reserve a turkey in advance. They may have a limited supply for the Thanksgiving Day window.
