ZAGAT SPECIALTY GUIDES
www.zagat.com
Tim and Nina Zagat have been facilitating the evaluation of New York City restaurants since 1979, first taking surveys of their friends’ likes and dislikes, then inviting the public to contribute their thoughts in the beloved Zagat guides. They’ve since branched out into other cities as well as specialty guides, including hotels, golf courses, and “dating (& dumping).” The company has just released New York City Nightlife 2011/12: Because It’s Always Happy Hour Somewhere, which examines more than one thousand bars, clubs, and lounges by appeal, décor, service, and price, and New York City Shopping 2012: From the Shopper’s Point of View, which rates more than twenty-three hundred retail stores by quality, display, service, and cost.
