I went here with my family for my moms birthday and had a nice time. I loved the decorations they had it made the restaurant so inviting and the food was great too!

This cafe had a nice selection of baked goods. We didn’t get to try anything else on the menu at the time but I would definitely go back.
Europan Cafe – Europan Cafe
This restaurant is gorgeous! I loved all the flowers they had and the decorations were beautiful. The atmosphere was so cool and relaxing. The food was so good and so were the drinks!

I took a cooking class here when I went to NYC for a date and had the best time. If you are a social butterfly this is definitely for you. During the class you share a station with another couple and are taught how to make your dish. I would go again...

I know I know, Central Park really?? Yes really! I know everyone goes to Central Park but it’s for good reason! Central Park is so pretty and worth the hype.
Central Park
I would love to go back and see this view! You could see so much of New York from this spot. I only saw it at night but I know it’s great at any time of the day
Edge at Hudson Yards NYC
I had such a good time at this comedy club, I was laughing so much. The staff was friendly and the place seemed clean.
New York Comedy Club - Midtown
I was so in awe of this park when I first saw it! I love the design and architecture of it. There was even a food truck there which was unexpected but very nice. I would love to go back.
Little Island
I went here to go see Alicia Key’s “Hell’s Kitchen” and it was so good! The theater was nice and clean! I would not recommend the top seats unless you’re okay with no leg room.
Shubert Theatre
I loved exploring New York on this bus. I know it can sound a little boring but you get great views of New York and you can even learn about some of the history. I would 10/10 do this ride again
TopView Sightseeing NYC
I know this could another basic rec BUT Times Square is just so electrifying! There’s so many shops, restaurants, and people you could never be bored there. I would definitely suggest going during the day on a weekday definitely not at crowded.
Times Square
I had a great time during this baking class. The chef was so informative and made the class fun! If you’re a social butterfly you will like this class because you get paired up with other people to create perfect macarons!
CocuSocial - Cooking/Baking Classes
This cinema was so nice! They offered food and drinks that you could from your phone and headphones to listen to the movie! I love rooftop movies
Yotel Rooftop Cinema Club
This garden had me stopping in my tracks. This is one of the prettiest gardens I’ve ever been too. I can not wait to go back. The tickets are a great price and it’s free for children.
