89th And Broke I'm a young professional living in Astoria (formerly of Williamsburg, the UES and Murray Hill - I move a lot!). I'm always looking for something fun to do or the best place to grab a drink and dinner at an affordable price around the city.
Have a suggestion? Email me at Laura AT 89thandbroke DOT com.

It’s Restaurant Week time of year, which means that 20at20 is back through February 6. Arrive at the theater 20 minutes before showtime at these participating theaters, and you’ll get $20 tickets to an off-Broadway show. We tried this promotion a few years back (and we’ve detailed the worst audience member we’ve ever encountered in this review) and [...]

If you find yourself off this week or with a lot of downtime, just a friendly reminder that you can get a free one-month trial of Netflix. I’ve been a Netflix subscriber for years, and let me tell you, there’s nothing you’ll want more come New Years Day when you are hungover. I have [...]

Two weeks ago I was invited to see Catch Me If You Can on Broadway for Blogger’s Night. If you are wondering why the name of the show sounds so familiar, this show shares the same story as the 2002 movie starting Leonardo DiCaprio. I hadn’t see the movie before, so the story line kept [...]

I’ve been in my apartment for almost 24 hours and am about to go stir crazy. If this storm is making you bored out of you mind, consider taking advantage of this free Netflix trial. You can stream as many movies as you want (pending we don’t lose power or internet) and then you [...]

Yesterday, I spent the day at the pool. As someone who has lived in New York for four years, I realize how weird it sounds to say that.
You can swim in more than 54 free pools in NYC. The pools are open from 11am – 7pm, and are closed daily from 3-4 pm [...]
