First stop: Coffee at the Starbucks Reserve Roastery.
Next stop: Chelsea Market.
A wonderful place to explore. Plenty of places to get something to eat, but also plenty of places to shop for unique items.
Next stop: Artechouse NYC. This is an interactive display museum dedicated to digital artists. The exhibits change regularly so each time you visit NYC, you would probably see something new. These photos don’t do it justice. You really had to be there to experience it.
Next stop (or go…): Walking the High Line
Next stop: Lunch at Little Spain
Next stop: Blank Slate Coffee + Kitchen. It was within a block of our hotel, if I recall correctly. We were ready for this late afternoon pick me up! They have a wall dedicated to amazing Etch a Sketch artists!
A (very little) rest back at the hotel. A quick change into our evening gear, and we were on our way to our NYC night out!
Next stop: Grand Central Terminal
Next stop: Times Square, then R Lounge
This lounge gave us the best view overlooking Times Square. Their homemade kettle chips and onion dip for .99 was the best value ever!
Next stop: The Press Lounge
A beautiful rooftop lounge. It was pretty full and we did not want to sit up at the bar, so we walked around outside a bit, then left.
Next stop: Dinner at The Rustic Table
A charming, small place offering Mediterranean food. Food was delectable, and this dessert was something to swoon over. Seriously, a highlight of our trip. We overheard a customer rave about it, and asked what it was. It’s called Malabi; a milk pudding with pomegranate juice, rose water, pistachios, and coconut.
