GREETINGS FROM NYC! Trip has been amazing so far and jam packed, so will give just the highlights for now...
Day 1 - Quick visit to MOMA, always a must. Lunch at Pinche, DELISH cheapy Mexican food in Nolita.Obsessed with their Yucca fries. Nothing yucca about 'em. Sorry, just the highlights.
Day 2 - Brunch at Locanda Verde in Tribeca. The old AGO spot. Everything was fantastic. Highly reco the patisserie plate to start. I DIE. Then attended our friend's wedding at Studio 450. Super cool NYC spot. It was a vegetarian wedding so got wasted, tried to request some Beyonce from the swing band, jetlag set in - home in bed by 11:30. All in all an excellent evening. Wore my black See by Chloe cocktail dress with the necklace hubby gave me for my bday and gold Jimmy Choo strappies. Oh and the bride looked stunning too.
Day 3 - Too hungover to do anything. Did manage, however, to go to an early dinner with hubby and my dad at Minetta Tavern in the west village. Had been once before, and was pleasantly surprised at how exceptional the food and cocktails were! Second time around proved just as good. Always impressed when an ultra trendy place delivers on the food as well. Two enthusiastic thumbs up!
Day 4 - This was one of my fave days so far. Hubby and I walked the Highline, which we had not yet done. Really think the designers stayed true to the industrial/rail aesthetic. Loved all the benches and chaise lounges on wheels. (see above.) Next, Chelsea Market for lunch. We ate at our fave Ronnybrook Farm's Milk Bar. Get the blueberry pomegranate shake. It never disappoints. That evening we got to attend the taping of the Daily Show, as my dad was on to promote his new book. After, dinner at Otto. Always reliable for delish pizza and controversial, but authentic, gelato flavours! YUMM.
That brings us up to the present. Who knows what will happen next....
