Manila Luzon's New York City

Manila Luzon is an all-time RuPaul's Drag Race fan favorite, a style icon for those not afraid of color, and a well-known queen about town in New York. Here she gives Trip Out Travel her favorite destinations around town you'll want to check out - whether it's romance, lust or drunkenness you're after -- as well as her dream vacations.

What's your very favorite restaurant in New York?

VYNL in Hells Kitchen! They have any food you'd ever need to eat: from meatloaf to sweet & sour chicken! It's just so damned cute in there! The record album cover menus are a trip. Maybe you'll be seated below a shadow box displaying the New Kids on the Block Barbie dolls. Oh, and you must use the bathrooms! I like the Dolly Parton bathroom, but you may prefer the Cher bathroom.

And when you'd rather drink than eat?

The Monster! It's got a piano bar upstairs to belt out show tunes, and a little club downstairs to dance. And every once in a while I'll show up to do a number or two. And they make the strongest drinks in the city. Two drinks and you're drunk for three days!

Best place to score killer fashions?

Top Shop in SoHo! They have affordable fashion and a sickening shoe section!

Your best secret store (that you’d only share with friends)?

The Patricia Fields store ... it's not a secret by any means, but it's one of the most inspirational places to shop.

Best daytime sight to enjoy in your city?

The Chelsea Piers! You can pretend you're one of the voguing Pier Kids in the documentary "Paris Is Burning." You can also look across the river and point and laugh at Carmen Carrera's home!!! just kidding ... I'm sure New Jersey is a lovely place ... although I've never been.

Best place to be at 2am?

Right between tipsy and WASTED at any FornabaioVoss Events party in the city!

Best romantic date spot?

The Met Museum because it's so giant and filled with beautiful art.

And when you're getting straight to the making out?

Anywhere in this city. It's so romantic to stop in the middle of all the hustle and bustle for an intimate make out session ... and Charlie, the homeless crackhead, will really enjoy watching.

Your favorite vacation destination?

Barcelona, Spain (or as they say, ESPAÑA) The architecture is wacky! The beach there is amazing! And the Spanish boys are super sexy!

Sexiest place you’ve ever been?

Brazil. Brazilians are the sexiest people on Earth. Even the old ladies exude sex! It's crazy!!!

Dream destination you’re dying to visit?

Tokyo, Japan: I wanna be the tallest thing there. The 6 foot Drag Queen vs. Mothra!!!

Best place you’ve ever performed & why?

Las Vegas. I was sitting at my vanity putting on my make up when I realized that I was technically headlining in Vegas! How Celine of me!

Finally, where would you want your dream wedding to be?

I am so proud that gay New Yorkers are finally allowed to marry, so I'll gladly get married at home here in NYC!
