Greetings from Canada! Ben and I journeyed up across the northern border yesterday for a long weekend in Montreal (blog posts coming soon!) I just wanted to share this really cool spot with you guys. We stopped at the Phoenicia Diner on the drive up and while it was slightly out of the way, it … Continue reading Phoenicia Diner and Why You Should Go
I've found my new favorite brunch spot! Joseph Leonard is everything you would imagine in a quaint West Village brunch joint and more. From the location on the corner of Waverly and Grove, to the atmosphere and decorations, to the food- it's an absolute must-try in my book! Joseph Leonard is literally about the size … Continue reading Joseph Leonard
Last night Ben got his first taste of Parm! I've actually been there before (the Upper West Side location), but last night we went to the Parm on Mulberry Street in Nolita. Chicken parm hero lovers of the world, you NEED to head to Parm to get your cheesey chicken parm fix! They also have … Continue reading Parm Perfection
Finally made it down to see the finished World Trade Center Oculus! I haven't been down to this area in months and the last time I saw it, Santiago Calatrava's strange, rib-cage like structure was still under construction. Beneath the white "bird in flight" exterior is a huge open space lined with stores from H&M … Continue reading Oculus
That's the year the Brooklyn Bridge opened to the public. Some more fun facts for you: the project took 14 years and somewhere around $15 million dollars (at the time) to complete. Oddly enough, when this beauty opened, Brooklyn was its own city rather than a borough, which I definitely didn't know! This stunning NYC … Continue reading 1883.
The ambiance of Sotto 13 alone should be enough to get this West Village pizza haven on your radar. Thankfully, the food and wine selection are AMAZING as well! Tucked away on 13th street, Sotto 13 looks like a cozy little restaurant with outdoor seating, a bar and a few high top tables; however, venture … Continue reading Satisfied at Sotto 13
I've actually never made it down to New York City's historic Stone Street. Part of me has always felt that it's just SO far out of the way being that it's incredibly far downtown. Now that I've actually seen it for myself, I understand why people like it so much! How cute is this place?! … Continue reading Stone Street on Sunday
As I mentioned in a previous #TBT post about Alcatraz, we made a stop in Los Angeles while driving from San Francisco to San Diego back in February. It was a quick visit for sure: we only had one full day in LA! When planning how we'd conquer the City of Angeles, we decided that the Hollywood Sign hike … Continue reading Travel Diaries: All the Way Up (@ Runyan Canyon)
I just wanted to quickly share some pictures of this really cool juice that I tried this week! I'm not sure where I first saw it, but it was love at first sight and I just knew I had to try one! Great idea, right? It's called the "Light Bulb Drink" and you can get … Continue reading I had an idea…
The "Sunday Scaries" were real yesterday! Just wanted to share some of my favorite pics from this gloomy weekend. I'm always looking for cool graffiti and street art to take pictures of (and with!) and we found some awesome murals in downtown Manhattan. We took these before heading into Alphabet City for some beer and … Continue reading A pop of color
