Re: NY suggestions
I'm going to assume you mean Manhattan NYC. It's been a long time since I was there, 2001 perhaps, but in the theatre district I'd recommend The Pig & Whistle on West 47th, Connolly's or Stout's a few blocks south.
In any case I hope you'll be on the company's dime because drinking in NYC is eye-popping expensive. Enjoy your visit!

my cousin has a bar down on the LES at Essex and Delancy - called "the Whisky War".
That place is great.

My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

Houston may have great bars, but New Orleans is a bar.

Maybe one of those (not all are in NY though)?

I'm shocked that an Irishman would even consider imbibing. Shocked I tell you!
There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.
“Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”
To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.
