Celeste Bartos International Film Study Center at MoMA
WHY ESSENTIAL:
You need an appointment, but your scheduling will pay off: This is where the Andy Warhol Film Collection resides, among other rarities, including D.W. Griffith’s 1916 silent masterpiece Intolerance; a cog from Charlie Chaplin’s beloved Modern Times (1936); and original animation by the likes of Winsor McCay, Walt Disney, John Hubley and Paul Terry.
The secret:
Associate curator Charles Silver says the staff is especially fond of a four-legged wooden stool that Cary Grant sat on when he attended a career talk and screening at the FSC in the early ’80s. Only a handful of employees have been allowed to sit on it since. (Ask nicely and you can at least see it.) 11 W 53rd St between Fifth and Sixth Aves (212-708-9613, moma.org)

Josh, it is true. X is not on the menu.
I am really upset that Time Out printed my secret website for everybody to see. gugunnameable is so secret, you can't even view it on a regular computer -- the secret password is
www.unnameablebooks.net

The concept of this piece, as described, is excellent; the execution is terrible and misleading (per the description, anyway–it would have been a fine article properly described). A tip would be, for example: "order X at Pearl Oyster Bar, it's not on the menu, it's excellent, and you have to request it." Or a reservation password or somesuch.

How is this an "ultra-valuable tip?" It's not even a "tip," it's a piece of trivia.

url is indeed wrong. gugunameable books sell textbooks.
