New York grew out of the southern part of Manhattan and today this area is considered the financial heart of the city. Despite the narrow, dark streets, there are many ways to explore Downtown. Unlike the rest of the island, the streets are confusing – with curved forks and alleys. Therefore, when visiting, have a map […]
After visiting the 9/11 Memorial, we were famished and unwilling to walk far to find a cafe. That's when we found George's New York, a small place but completely themed: an essentially New York place. After getting to know it, we learned that the place was a legend, as the old structure was totally destroyed by the events of […]
Another hidden and very special place in New York. We found it by accident after a walk in Central Park on the afternoon of our fourth day of travel to the Big Apple. Typical French snack on the streets of New York 🙂 What caught our attention was seeing that crepes are made in front of […]
In addition to the restaurant, there is also a themed bar with many interesting drinks. The menu is very varied and extensive, full of typical foods from some countries. We ordered Margaritas and a Hard Rock Nachos (Total $48). Fast service and great service. We had a good time! 🙂 Of course, it's a little pricey compared to other places, but the food is great. […]
"What a view! What a view!" That was the most heard phrase the night we went to dinner at The View restaurant in Times Square. The restaurant is located on the 48th floor of the Marriott Marquis (1535 Broadway, between W45 and W46), right in the heart of Times Square. The View is New York's only revolving restaurant. We went at […]
On the second day of the trip, we went to see the 9/11 Memorial – Tribute to the events of September 11, 2001. The 9/11 Memorial is called Reflecting Absence. There are 2 spaces – South and North Pool – with water fountains that fall into an indoor pool with a large void in the middle. In both spaces […]
We went to meet Brooklyn through one of the GrayLine New York tours. We went in the late afternoon to enjoy the view of Manhattan during the day, enjoy the sunset and then the beauty of the lights. If you haven't purchased GrayLine New York tours, you can take the F train from Penn Station. At […]
We briefly passed through Boston this year, just to visit an uncle we haven't seen in a long time. We left by car from Enfield, Connecticut, very early to the city center 🙂 Arriving in Boston, we parked at the Museum of Science and took the opportunity to get to know a little of the place, which, by the way, is worth the visit because it is incredible […]
BUY HOT DOG ON THE STREET Someone tell me what they put in those street hot dogs in NY that make them so irresistible?! It's okay that my quality standard is not the most demanding, but they have the same taste in all carts, do you agree?! I think I ate a couple of hot dogs […]
Of the cities where I used the subway, New York was the one that I found the most complicated. There are many lines, many directions and many stops! The main difference between the New York subway and all the others I've used is that the New York subway doesn't have practical connections like the subways in major cities […]
