Shame on me for not having a write-up for New York City. I mean, c’mon man, of all the cities? Or it might be because of my love-hate relationship with it.
Well, I’ll keep it short:
Saturdays NYC at Crosby St, Ace Hotel (and Stumptown Coffee), “tito-tier” shopping at Bergdorf Goodman and Tiffany & Co 5th Ave Flagship, hip shopping at NoLita and SoHo, business-justifiable gear shopping at B&H, geeking out at Forbidden Planet and visiting the Sanctum Sanctorum at 177 “A” Bleecker Street, MALIN+GOETZ, REI Co-op, Shake Shack with squirrels at Madison Square Park, good ol’ Ray’s and Prince St. Pizza, Russ & Daughters, and Smith & Wollensky for that Miranda Priestly fix or Peter Luger for that annual splurge meal. What else? Crif Dogs? Bao Haus? A Simon and Garfunkel + Beastie Boys + Biggie + The Strokes playlist on Spotify
That’s it, I guess.
Oh wait. Now I DO have a write-up.
