Side note: I’ve FINALLY found a plugin that will batch insert pictures instead of having to do it one at a time. Seriously, WordPress. Seriously.
Now back to our regularly scheduled programming.
A few of my fun food-loving friends and I flew to New York the weekend before Hurricane Irene hit. I mention that we flew because oh, it came back to bite us on our way home. But other than that hiccup, the rest of the trip was so much fun. Good food and good company always go well together.

Our view of the Toronto skyline from our seats.

The first thing to cross off our to-see list: Madison Square Garden (That is all we saw of it)

Rickshaw Dumpling Bar. Yumm
Top-right: Black sesame covered chocolate dumpling
Bottom-left: Peking duck dumpling

Should’ve rode this back home. Would’ve been faster than trying to catch a flight home. AND you’ll have good food to eat

Nobu. I don’t even remember what we ate but it was all so good.

MoMA

Photobomb

The pretzel that changed everything.

Shopping cart at Eataly

The new World Trade Center

Spot the tour guide.


Wall Street

Fun at the NBC store

Bouchon Bakery = Cork Bakery



Times Square

Late night meal at Juniors Cheesecake

New Grimaldi’s location. We each had half a pizza.


$11,000 coffee machine. Each.
Starbucks bought the company so it’s hard to find one of these now.

How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, starring Daniel Radcliffe. Such a good show. No, this isn’t the one where he’s naked.
(I was glad I brought the point and shoot because they wouldn’t allow bigger cameras in. They actually locked them up in a locker)

Post-show meal: Shake Shack!


Carnagie Deli for some late night cheesecake

Getting ready to see Cirque: Zarkana


Inside Radio City


Last meal in New York. We bought a Groupon for this. We had to go.

At Newark. Smiling before we knew what was coming. Cancelled flight, bad service from Continental and sleeping at the airport. On chairs. In the food court.


We put ourselves on standby and all got a seat on the same flight!


SO happy to be home!
