My Urban Sherpa is an Internet resource for travelers and residents alike, whose plethora of interests and dearth of free time demand reliable information of the well-heeled and well-traveled.

My Urban Sherpa recommends restaurants, shops, exercise facilities and cultural events that cover well-known destinations and hidden neighborhood gems. Easy to navigate, time efficient, and up-to-date, the site winnows an overwhelming number of choices into a manageable and reliable selection.

Visitors can search for information by category and neighborhood. Listings include the street address, phone number, map, Web link, pithy description and occasionally a logo or photo.

Recommendations on where to dine, how to spend Saturday, and where to go for culinary inspiration appear in short editorials from iconic New Yorkers. Reviews may be added by registered members. My Urban Sherpa is free to the user, whom we hope includes you.
