Broadway Comedy Club
This is one of the most respected comedy clubs in all of New York City, one that has played host to the likes of Joe Devito, Scott McFadden, Jimmy Fallon, David Letterman, and many others who have gone on to make it big in television. Tickets generally run for about $20 a night, and include a free pitcher of beer. Shows run up until as late as 11PM and are a great way for you to end your evening.

Wondee Siam
Small restaurant, so expect to wait on line at peak hours (e.g., Friday and Saturday nights); generally considered to be one of the best Thai restaurants in Manhattan. Food ranges in spiciness from mild to very spicy, not always consistent with what you ask for, but staff are happy to provide extra dried red pepper flakes on the side. Consistently tasty food, especially if you stick with the items on the "secret Thai" menu card on the table and ask for everything to be "very spicy and Thai style, not sweet."
Lunch specials $7, soups and small salads $4, fried rice $10.50, yum (Thai spicy salads) $9.95-12.50, mains $10.50-22, noodles $9.50-11.50, side order of rice $1.50-2, beverages $2.50

Empanada Mama
Popular 24-hour joint with an extensive selection of empanadas ranging from classic to creative, as well as other Latin American dishes. The focus is on Colombian flavors but there's quite a bit of fusion. Excellent vegan options. A second location at 200 W 40th St near Times Square is mainly for takeout, with a smaller menu and slightly more limited hours.
About $5 per empanada

Wicked the Musical
An incredibly popular show which has been on Broadway for over twenty years, Wicked is one of the highest rated shows that has ever hit Broadway. It's based on the Wizard of Oz, but told from the witch's point of view instead of Dorothy's. The show runs about 2 hours and 45 minutes.
