Truly exquisite Omakase @ Ginza Onodera

Had the pleasure of eating at Ginza Onodera and experiencing one of NYC's most exclusive and private dinners ever.  The Omakase was like tasting different parts of Japan and experiencing the serenity of the islands.  An amazing dinner and truly one of a kind.

A day off in Roosevelt Island...

Got a chance to go to Roosevelt Island on a beautiful day with my oldest and just enjoy a simple quiet day.  We got to spend time together and check out midtown Manhattan from the east side and just enjoy the weather.

Last days of summer... at their favorite park!

First day of school has come and gone but the weekend still feels like summer.  So how about a final foray at their favorite park in 80+ degree weather?  A lot of sweat, swinging, and chasing was involved and both got their fill of their last days of summer.  But it seems like it'll be hot again next week... I'm sure these two won't mind.

A stroll in Meatpacking... in 90 degree weather *phew*

It was a simple stroll for the beginning of Fashion Week in NYC and then temperatures soared to 90+ degrees.  We didn't stay out too long...decided to grab some afternoon lunch at Soba Totto.

Gelso and Grand... a great Italian Restaurant in Little Italy

Had the pleasure of eating at Gelso and Grand.  A wonderful location with indoor and outdoor seating in a great location with amazing Italian food.  Favorites include the Tomahawk steak for two and the mozzarella and tomato appetizers.  Will be checking in again very soon.

A day around Central Park on a hot, humid, and sweaty day

Went to check Shakespeare in the Park and got a behind the scenes look at all the preparations needed for such an event.  I got a chance to shoot around the park before the play started.  Didn’t even know there was a castle in Central Park!

A stroll in Williamsburg...

Both of us had a day off so we decided to take a drive to Williamsburg and decided to spend a day with the girls and appreciate all the fun wall art in Brooklyn.
