A visit to the city would not be complete without meeting up with good blogging friends we had dinne


You ve gotta love a trip to New York City in the spring.  It s beautiful!  I was brought into the city to spend a day with the folks at Pepperidge Farm , but my travel partner (Sandy from Reluctant Entertainer ) and I came in a couple of days early to enjoy the city.  We had a blast so I thought hotels cancun I d share a little bit about where we stayed, what we ate, and what we did while we where there!
Here s a peek at the map if you re at all familiar with New York City.  There aren t amazing restaurants right around the hotel or anything, but we ended up walking to just about everything within a 1.5 mile radius hotels cancun (or taking a short cab ride).  We walked to Macy s at Herald Square and we walked to Times Square.  The weather was nice, so it wasn t a problem walking in comfortable shoes!
The Tuscany Hotel has a cool, funky vibe.  This is the lobby.  On the 2nd floor is a fitness room.  It s much larger than other boutique hotel fitness rooms with several treadmills, ellipticals, bikes and a large weight area.  We worked out every day we were there (seriously!!)
Just a few doors down from our hotel was this cool place:   The Peacock Restaurant and Shakespeare Pub .  We met up with sweet Maggy from Three Many Cooks and had a drink downstairs hotels cancun in the lively Shakespeare Pub then we transitioned upstairs to the more sedate Peacock hotels cancun restaurant to nibble Housemade Ricotta and Deviled Eggs.  OMG.  Best decision ever.
Sandy and I had the opportunity to tour Martha Stewart Omnimedia offices.  They were beautiful.  So many interesting things going on there!  Yes, we had a Martha hotels cancun sighting she happened to walk by when we were in a meeting with our hosts and graciously said hello.  She brings in eggs from her farm every week for her employees to take home.  I loved this part of our trip!
Just down the street from Martha s headquarters was this awesome place- we popped in for lunch Ovest Pizzoteca .  Of course, hotels cancun we ordered The Martha pizza- mozzarella, prosciutto, truffle pate and basil.  It was WOW.
A visit to the city would not be complete without meeting up with good blogging friends we had dinner at The Spice Market with Gina (blog- Skinnytaste ) and JoAnn (blog- Fifteen hotels cancun Spatulas ).  These are two of the most amazing, hotels cancun genuine, fun girls ever!  Let s talk about The Spice Market for a minute it s a southeastern Asian restaurant.  We all ordered the tasting menu, and we were all completely blown away with how delicious and different everything was.  Not super spicy.  SOOOOO good.
Another favorite dinner place was ABC Kitchen .  We were lucky to get in there with a cancelled reservation.  They have a farm-to-table, seasonal menu- therefore, the menu is constantly changing.  We had homemade ricotta, roasted beets in some sort of amazing yogurt sauce, and asparagus pizza.  They brought hotels cancun us fiddleheads to try (both of us first-timers), and they were interesting.  This place was excellent for dinner.  But maybe skip the fiddleheads
We visited a TDF Discount Ticket Booth (in Times Square) to grab half price theater tickets for Les Miserables.  We arrived 1/2 hour before the ticket booth opened and waited in line.  They had people telling you all about the different shows playing while you were waiting.  Once opened, the line moved quickly.  Les Miserables was awesome, of course!
Our last night in NYC, we had dinner at Empellón Taqueria in the West Village.  They offered an amazing selection of unique hotels cancun salsas. hotels cancun  We had rockstar, delicious tacos too.  I don t really drink margaritas, but their selection looked pretty interesting.  It was a good place to eat and it s in a cool part of town.  After dinner we hit Magnolia Bakery for a large selection of desserts for taste testing among friends.  This is their Peanut Butter Cup Pie.  DELICIOUS!
