Matcha NYC
These are my no fail places to get real authentic ceremonical grade matcha in the city! Kettl is my #1!
Kettl is my #1 Matcha Spot in New York. You can really never go wrong with any of their matcha. They are a traditional matcha spot, so no vanilla or strawberry matchas, but you can add honey for sweetness. They also serve soft serve and japanese past...
Kettl
Best place to get cute quaint japanese (GLUTEN FREE) bakery items and sandwiches. Their matcha is so good!! I like their sandos.

12 Matcha is a really cool matcha spot in SoHo. I went on a Tuesday at 10:30am and there was no line, but beware on a weekend or peak hour, there might be a line! They have really cool ways of making their matcha and they also have a great matcha ice...

Good Molecules - Moisturizer
I'm a bath girly hands down, I literally would not rent an apartment in nyc if it didn't have a bathtub. A LUSH bath bomb is needed everytime. Hack; they do a 50% off sale the day after Christmas. It's one of their only sales of the year. I buy $200 ...

Mojo East
I have used Doordash reservations a few times to book dinner and lunch at highly rated NYC restaurants! The best part is, you earn $10 in CREDITS EVERY TIME ($12 for Dashpass members) to use on future Doordash orders! This is a huge perk for me, beca...
Reserve on DoorDash and get $10 in credits every time you dine!

Workout Classes NYC
Great calm, but still burner, workout in Brooklyn, not to mention your definitely have heard of their pilates socks before. Everyone is so kind here. They give you lavendar towls after!
Lucky Honey
My favorite heated pilates class in the city. I literally feel so snatched after each class. Make sure to drink plenty of water! Worth the price tag. They also have showers and ammenities.
Fuze House
My tride and true reformer pilates in New York. These classes have helped me build my core and get so strong. Their monthly deals are so great.
