Long Island City, New York May 9, 2011 - Within 3 minutes and a few short steps, foodies from Manhattan, or visiting from another part of the world, can depart Grand Central Station on the 7 Subway and enjoy authentic restaurant cuisines and patios in the HOT neighborhood of the Hunters Point section of Long Island City.   That short walk can also put you at the door of MoMA PS1, an internationally acclaimed museum and cultural center. Unique new restaurants like Testaccio Ristorante,  Madera Cuban Grill, and blend offer exceptional international cuisines, while restaurants like Waterfront Crabhouse serves some of the finest seafood, steaks, prime ribs, crabs, and fish stew anywhere. Hidden gardens and outdoor dining at Lounge 47, Da Gianni's,  BANY, Masso, and Dominies Hoek are favorites....and just a few steps from the 7 Subway.  A short walk to the East River reveals one of New York Cities best parks, Gantry State Park, with SHI Restaurant on one end and Riverview on the other.   Before long, Skinny's Mexican restaurant and ALOBAR will add more flavors to this growing destination community. More than ever, visitors and home buyers/renters are learning that Long Island City is at the epicenter of New York City...and is at the heart of the transportation arteries for communting, visitors, and tourists. OurLIC has begun a study to document the convenience of the transportation  systems serving Huners Point,  Astoria, Sunnyside, and Woodside, and Dutch Kills.
