Local YouTuber actionkid105 often films long walks and bike rides around New York City using a chest-mounted GoPro to give the viewers a POV experience of what it is like navigating the City by foot and pedal. In this recent upload, watch as he bikes from Long Island City, Queens, across the Queensboro Bridge, through Midtown Manhattan, along the Hudson River Park, all the way to the Staten Island Ferry Terminal in Lower Manhattan.

I ride my bicycle from Long Island City Queens to the Staten Island Ferry Terminal via the Ed Koch Queensboro (59th Street) Bridge, 1st Avenue, 72nd Street, through Central Park and the Hudson River Greenway.

First opened in 1892, Ferrara Bakery in Manhattan's Little Italy is perhaps the most famous Italian Bakery in New York City. Filled with lines of tourists and locals alike, many patrons are there for one thing: delicious cannoli. In this video from our friends at First We Feast, watch as owner Ernest Lepore explains how they make their cannoli from scratch every day.

Few pastries are more quintessential to the New York experience than the cannolo. Sweet, flakey, and filled with a thick ricotta cream, the Sicilian dessert is the platonic ideal of what fried food can be. Ferrara Bakery in Manhattan's Little Italy has been churning out the pastry for over 125 years, since Antonio Ferrara first opened up shop on Grand Street in 1892. Now, fifth-generation owner Ernest Lepore is here to share the secret to making perfectly smooth and crunchy cannoli in Ferrara's legendary kitchen. Whether they're dragged through a vat of melted chocolate, or served plain with an espresso, cannoli are an inextricable component of Italian-American cooking in NYC. "I love cannolis, because it's my family tradition," Lepore says. "Sharing food is the way we say we love you, so we love to cook."
