http://www.affiliatesummit.com/14e-register/

peace

Thanks for that! STM + F5Media will be there. Official meetup will be happening

Already registered a few weeks ago. They also seem to have a hard limit of 25 characters on business name.

I do not remember this in the past.

Unfortunately, we have to have a very firm policy on how many characters we allow for each field. It would be impossible to custom make some of the badges with longer fields when you're printing 5K+ at a time.
It must be trimmed to be 25 max characters with spaces in order for the entire company name to fit on the badge. We are reaching out to you as a courtesy so you aren't surprised when you get to the show:-)
Please send us your updated version and we'll update your registration record.

Sounds like it's gonna be a good time, I'm looking forward to getting back to NY. I'll be in a few days before the conference.

Any New Yorkers recommend some MUST EATS?


05-19-2014 11:22 AM #13 caurmen (Administrator)

Not a Noo Yawker, but if you want to try some really interesting fine dining / molecular gastronomy stuff in NYC, WD-50 is fantastic.

Or was last time I was there, anyway - it was a few years ago, but I think they Wiley Dufresne's restaurants still have a good rep.

Definitely Down for some Peter Lugers... I'm also in NY, so if anyone needs some recommendations for areas to stay, shoot me a PM!

There's a lot of little places that you can go to for specialty stuff, like Kronuts, but some restaurants off the top of my head...

Midtown:

Del Frisco's Grille is great, The Smith


Meat Packing:

Lavo, Morrimoto, Catch, Sugar Factory, Umami Burger, ValBella

Soho:

Sofia's (on mulberry)


I will think of some more and add to the list here.

Eleven Madison Park -- Been to many of the top restaurants in the world and this is still my pick for #1
Sushi Nakazawa - If you've ever seen Jiro Dreams of Sushi, the main apprentice from that movie opened up his own shop in NYC. They will be booked the entire month in advance but if you have AMEX concierge/chase concierge they may be able to help you get a table, or you can camp on opentable.com and try to get your reservation through. This is as good as you can get to the best sushi in the states, and it's super cheap too for the 22 piece Omakase @ 120 for the dining room or 150 in front of the guy.

I started typing up a list, but i quickly realized it would take the rest of the night to compile and then some.

The main problem with giving advice for eating in NYC is that it is still in my opinion the food mecca of the world -- there's far too many options to choose from. The main thing is the cultural diversity of NYC lends to having so many hundreds of tiny pockets of random food/subcultures that would not be able to exist without them. For example, the only place I have been in the US where u can get authentically flavored Thai food is in Queens. You can basically fill in the sentence: "I want world-class _______ food" and I can pretty much guarantee there will be somewhere in NYC that has it. Being that eating is my favorite part of traveling, you can imagine when I lived in NYC full time I went to a few thousand places in NYC and I still have SO many places I have yet to go and want to.

Let me give you an example: I think the East Village is pretty much #1 for high end cultural diversity in a small 1 mile long, 0.5 mile wide area... (let's say 2km x 1km) and it may be a stretch, but I think I could get more of "the best" version of foods in the world walking around in a few minutes than I did my entire European trip spanning the entire continent and 25 something countries.

Xi'ans Famous Food - Xi'an provincial Chinese food. You may have seen this on on Anthony Bourdain's show. Bonus points if you even knew that different provinces have drastically different food!
Yakiniku West - You will find no Matsuzaki or Kobe beef here, but it's still eons beyond any Japanese BBQ you will find in Europe
Kenka - Low end Japanese Izakaya with a practical joke twist, you get get bull penis and maggot fried rice and some other weird stuff
Kyo-Ya - A high end Izakaya that's Michelin starred and easily better than most places in Tokyo
Robotaya - legit Japanese food that's not sushi/Yakiniku based
Curry-Ya - Japanese curry + Berkshire pork cutlets = deliciousness
Shabu Tatsu - acceptable tier of Shabu Shabu
Luke's Lobster - Fresh from Maine every morning, simple yet amazingly delicious
Mission Cantina - tacos and modern mexican food on the same level or as close to SF as you're going to get in NYC, with the chef Danny Bowien from there
Narcissa - Newly opened restaurant in the Standard Hotel east village with michelin starred chefs, themed Sustainable Modern, with everything super fresh from a farm in upstate NY. When I ate there, the chef told me the place is named after the cow in the farm.
Pommes Frites - Belgian styled fries, but with the best dipping sauces ever.
Abraco Coffee - one of the few places in the US who geek out and get proper coffee right. If you're a coffee geek as well, you'll love this place -- they pull out all the stops with proper drip pours, chemex, the works. Their olive oil cake is to die for as well.
Stage Restaurant - Stereotypical super no frills but good hole in the wall Ukranian/Kosher diner. Some of the patrons have been going there for over 40 years every single meal.
Momofuku Ssam Bar, Noodle bar, etc - Modern asian fusion
Ippudo - The only branch of one of Japan's most famous Ramen places is only in NYC
Wechsler's Currywurst - Most people who haven't been to Germany/Berlin probably don't even know what Currywurst is. This is not a good version of it by any stretch, but at least it's a shot lol
Russ & Daughters - Will redefine how the NY Bagel was meant to taste, with 15+ types of lox and rare herrings etc.
Katz' Deli - Try finding home-made pastrami/corned beef on this level anywhere outside the US
Jeepney/Ugly Kitchen/Pig & Khao - Traditional Phillipino food, Philippino bar, and a modern take on Phillipino food in their respective orders... all within walking distance of each other
Mamoun's Falafel - Probably the best falafel you will get for like $1.50
Halal Guys - a new branch in the East Village from the massive legendary 53rd and 6th chicken & rice location. Some of the best tasting drunk food you will ever taste
Artichoke Pizza - Their artichoke pizza is quite amazing. 'Nuff said
Hummus Place - Their multiples different types of Hummus are quite good
Crif Dogs - Gourmet modern take on hot dogs
Awash - eat with your hands Ethiopian food
Upstate - super fresh raw oyster and seafood bar
One of the many indian food places in "Little India" within East Village
10 Degrees Bar - Happy hour from 12 PM till 8 PM, 2 for one on everything, and this includes 18, 25 year old scotches and whiskies. That's not a typo -- I've never seen this type of deal anywhere else, so you can go with friends who may not be stacking as hard and you can all enjoy some good drinks
Angel's Share - Some of the best drinks you will get anywhere, in a hidden door upstairs in a speakeasy settings, with the typical drink containing over 10 ingredients to make.

The list goes on, this is off the top of my head, but if you want good food, there is no place better for super high end diverse good food than NYC. I challenge any geographical region in the world to top these places that are all literally located 5-10 minutes walking from each other. Sure you will find better asian food in Asia, but the Western food in Asia will make you want to throw up. Ditto Europe with Asian food.

I'll probably be back in NYC for ASE, so anyone who wants some specific food recommendations, feel free to reach out. I saw Peter Luger's mentioned, but I would do a little more research rather than just going for the Wal-Mart of NY Steakhouses. Even some mainstream place like Gallagher's easily will give them a run for their money albeit most legit high end NY steakhouses' owners originally working for Peter Luger's. Fun fact -- a good steakhouse loses money on the front-end offer (proper dry-aged steak) because of how high end it is, and makes it back with shitty upsells during dinner (wine, desserts, etc)

I would highly recommend any respectable foodie go and scour ny.eater.com so one can properly prepare oneself. I mean, how else are you gonna find out about the new restaurant in Midtown west that just opened up that is Bacon themed, with every single item on the menu having 6 different types of gourmet bacon in it?

Was in NYC last year and the standout for me food wise was Public in NoLIta. Amazing food and pretty well priced for a michelin starred place.

Thanks

OK, so I wasn't planning to go to ASE, but after Tim's post above, I'm now considering it...


05-21-2014 09:18 PM #22 BenPOF ()

Will be there! Warning, it is HOT AS HELL in NYC in Aug so dress accordingly!


05-22-2014 01:37 PM #23 makeitrain (Member)

I'm fairly new to affiliate marketing and I would really like to meet/network with more people in the industry. I've actually never met another affiliate in person before. At the moment I can only afford to go to one, maybe two, conferences a year. I'm originally from NY and I happen to be in USA in August. Do you think a novice, interested primarily in mobile, would benefit greatly from attending Affiliate Summit East or should I be saving my funds for another conference?

PS. I will def be at the next STM Meet-up.


05-22-2014 04:05 PM #24 waltermitty (Senior Member)

Just get the networking badge and make sure to hit as many booths as possible relating to your interests. I only attend to network and party.

Mate, ASE 2012 changed my life completely, first real conference, met contacts that exploded things for me. Definitely if you're in the USA, and from NYC do not miss! STM will have a little meetup too come meet up.

I only attend to network and party.
This, the conversation is so fantastic haha

06-01-2014 08:24 PM #28 ricmed (Member)

I'm planning to attend also. As my first summit (and meet anyone related to AM for the first time in person), do you recommend attending ASE itself or just go to the STM meetup...(not sure what else...)...?


06-01-2014 09:04 PM #29 angry old lady (Member)

same here. wasn't planing on going but now I am considering it. anyone have hotel recommendations?

yep - this comment got me signed up too - thanks Maynzie for the inspiration! Can't wait to get stuck in! Wooo.


06-03-2014 11:43 AM #32 maynzie (Moderator)

Haha you're welcome Risingchamp, just rock up to the event with a smile, don't be shy and just talk to people get friendly get involved wealth of information opens up. It one of the most refreshing experiences I've had, a conference in a sick city with 100's of like minded people!


06-03-2014 11:57 AM #33 scitox ()

I'll probably be there as well! Looking forward to it :-).


06-03-2014 03:35 PM #34 waltermitty (Senior Member)

Just booked our apartment for Aug 7 - 12th on airbnb!

I would start making arrangements as I am seeing places get snapped up fast around times square. Missed out on 1 place that looked awesome because of procrastination.


edit*

Make sure you verify that any apartment you rent has Air Conditioning. At the very least require it in the bedrooms you do not want to deal with NYC in august with no AC.


06-03-2014 08:36 PM #35 mikepceo (Member)

Contact me if you are going we are having a private sunset sail the 10th around lady liberty and id like to invite STMers https://www.facebook.com/events/1407767309492506/

I would start making arrangements as I am seeing places get snapped up fast around times square. Missed out on 1 place that looked awesome because of procrastination.

Make sure you verify that any apartment you rent has Air Conditioning. At the very least require it in the bedrooms you do not want to deal with NYC in august with no AC.
Damn Airbnb apartments in NYC don't have AC? That would be a huge letdown if i arrived to a place AC'less, especially during ASE, meetings, dinners etc

Restaurants and hotels are 100% going to have central air systems. The problem is with some of the older buildings in Manhattan that airbnb members are renting out. A good number of them will have central air or AC units in major rooms. Just make sure you verify before you rent any units!

Yeah don't go for another more than networking. The value of these conferences is purely in networking.

I bought my pass at the $99 early price

Actually never seen them do a Buy 1 get 1 free before

But I thought it would help some people get in the summit

I remember how important it was to me the first time I went
