In New York, concrete jungle where dreams are made of,
There’s nothing you can’t do, now you’re in New York!
These street will make you feel brand new, Big lights will inspire you….
Let’s hear it for New York, New York, New York……
I had the most amazing week in New York City in September with my friend and London flattie!!
Here a some pictures from our NYC adventure…
Walking across the Brooklyn Bridge
A Grays Payaya hot dog; a New York institution!
Drinks and dinner at underground SoHo hotspot Mexican bar La Esquina
Browsing around the beautiful deli that is Dean & Deluca
Walking the NY Highline on the West Side
Indulging in hangover burgers at Bubby’s!
Reflection and remembrance at the 9/11 World Trade Centre Memorial
NYC Skyline at sun rise after a late night out in the city that never sleeps…
Tennis at the US Open Quarter finals
To-die-for eggs at The Dutch. Egg’s benedict with a difference because served on a cheese biscuit and covered with a spicy hollandaise sauce. My flatmate branded these as one of the best egg she’s ever had for brunch and coming from her, that is a BIG call, trust me ;)

As you can see our week in New York was filled with shopping, exploring, partying and lots and lots of eating. But more on that later because I will do a ‘food diary’ post to show you all the delicious food we ate and fabulous places we visited. After such an amazing week we really did not want to leave this incredible city but we both knew that it was probably the best for our credit cards and waistlines to return to our London home! My flatmate was the perfect NYC partner in crime and I am truly so lucky to have found such a great flattie and friend. Therefore, returning home wasn’t so bad after all because…..
Thanks MiMi for a brilliant holiday - Love you lots.
Happy Hump Day everyone :)
