These are the places I would go back again… if nyc wasn’t as saturated with amazing restaurants 😅
Get the burger. All the food we had was amaze, but get the burger. Very easy to snag a reservation as well.

If you’re an espresso martini girlie, stop at a Starbucks reserve you won’t regret it. And lucky for you NYC has two!
These could be free, public, ticketed, and anything in between. Just some of the favorite things I’ve done in the city.
I felt like I was living my Broad City dreams walking through Washington Square Park. Perfect for my people watching and soaking up the sun!
Washington Square Park
This was such a one-of-a-kind experience and the staff were super friendly (we went to the Brooklyn location). My mom and I made scents for each other which I will forever cherish!

Go see a broadway show!! Every performance I’ve seen has been top tier and no regrets. I’ve seen Phantom of the Opera, Into the Woods, Be More Chill, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Wicked, and Chicago. If you want those recs, check out my specifi...
This was such a special treat to see! We saw an ad on the subway while visiting and had no other plans, why not go see FREE Shakespeare in the park?! And A Midsummer Nights Dream is one of my favorites (which is what’s pictured) so how could we not?!...
Classicial Theatre of Harlem
Me and my momma saw the Italian charm bracelet trend that went viral from this shop, so as two Italian women we had to make the pilgrimage. Worth 👏🏻 it 👏🏻 I wear my bracelet all the time and get so many compliments on it!
The Niche Shop
Explore Central Park!! Just walking the park you will see so many cool things and people. It helps when it’s a gorgeous day like the one I experienced.

These are places where we didn’t have to sit down and eat, grab and go type places!
Good tasty bagel sandwiches! Didn’t have to wait too too long, but still a popular stop when we visited.

Was impressed that this was just as good as the hype surrounding it.

Brunch/Lunch🥗
Not necessarily ordering from a lunch menu, but definitely don’t order dinner from these places.
The way we were transported walking into this restaurant! The greenery was so tranquil and photo worthy. Food wasn’t half bad either! The ravioli was more impressive than the pizza but both were good, and the aperol spritz were amazing!

We tried to get into another brunch place in the west village, but we could wait over an hour in the sweltering nyc heat… so we walked around the neighborhood and found this spot. Amazing service and great food! Had to take a pic to remember this pla...
