NYC: Eat

I love that you can visit New York City, on any budget, and still eat better than you would in most other cities. Michelin star restaurant or Octopus ball street vendor, I love it all. This last trip, I enjoyed a mish mash of different cuisines, on actually a pretty reasonable budget. Reasonable budget equals, more money for shopping. Win. Win. 

We had....Breakfast salmon bagels at Russ and Daughters, almond pastries in Central Park at Petrossian, Ramen at my favorite Ippudo, which is almost at 4000 yelp reviews! Tako yaki (Japanese Octopus balls), Bento box (Japanese) at the Japanese bookstore by Bryant Park, Kinokuniya, snacks at Dean and Deluca while shopping in Soho, pizza at Eatlaty, a 50,000 sq ft market of Italian goodies and sit-down eateries. 

I can't wait to go back!

 

Autumnal Equinox

I'm not even quite sure where to start with this "here's how my summer vacations were" entry as summer passed by just as quickly as my tan faded and I only had the time and patience to write less than a dozen posts. But considering Autumnal Equinox is right around the corner, it only feels appropriate to try and squeeze in everything about summer before the official date is here. I said it. Autumnal Equinox.

So I guess I will start with a summary, work backwards and post each detailed account because it was definitely a world wind. Literally.
