NEW YORK PICKS

NEW YORK CITY

Some hot tips from our New York Gift trip January 2010.

 Royalton BAR 44 – 44 West 44^th – Theater District – Lobby Bar – great hip escape from city life – fun music, great drinks and snacks – We sampled the artisan cheese plate and grinder burgers, YUM!   www.royaltonhotel.com

 Pastis 9 Ninth Avenue – Meat Packing District – A piece of Paris in NYC.  Start your day with a great breakfast of prepared grapefruit and a croissant with Parisian ham and Gruyere cheese, brioche french toast or an omelette with fine herbs.  Parisian coffee and newspapers from around the world complete your imaginary trip to Paris.  www.pastisny.com

 Times Square -  if you haven’t been lately must now be seen at night.  The digital signs and neon billboards now create such a light it is almost like mid-day even at mid-night.

Travel Tips: Visit Si Tappas in Dallas

We love to travel and especially love finding new places to explore. We thought why not share some of these travel tips and finds with our readers and patrons?  So, here is a our first travel tip for you:

On a recent trip to Dallas we found a great little place near the Crescent hotel. If you are ever in Dallas area and you love tapas (or some great sangria for that matter, we recommend visiting Si Tappas.

Info: Si Tappas - 2207 Allen Street – Cresent Hotel Area – great tapas in a quaint house with indoor and outdoor seating.  Great sangria!
