For our Sunday in NY, we did a tour of Immigrant New York (https://www.bigonion.com/tour/immigrant-new-york/) with the Big Onion tour company (which hires graduate students in history as their tour guides). Our guide Adam was great and gave us a really interesting trip through NY history. We ended up in the old Jewish East side, which is where Craig's relatives came when they first immigrated here. After the tour we went to the museum there, which included both a synagogue and hot dog pop art. :) For a snack in between, we went to a hole-in-the-wall dumpling shop in Chinatown that our guide recommended -- and it was delicious!
For dinner that night we continued the theme and went to a Ukranian restaurant (Veselka). (Tanya's mom is Ukranian). It was located in "Little Ukraine", but besides the Ukranian Church, and two Ukrainan restaurants, I'm not sure you would have recognized it as a specific neighborhood. :)
