"Spend five minutes in Times Square and you'll see more I Love NY T-shirts than actual New Yorkers, which is exactly why the best NYC gifts aren't often found in souvenir shops at all. This city is stacked with makers, bakers, quirky boutiques and blink-and-you'll-miss-it storefronts producing things you genuinely can't get anywhere else (or at least not without knowing where to look)."
