NEW YORK CITY

New York City has been my home now for over 10 years. Over the years, I’ve cultivated a list of my go to places for different cuisines, date night, and attractions to visit when friends and family come over. NYC can be extremely overwhelming and confusing - I mean it’s so confused it can’t even stick to a name (New York City, the Big Apple, Gotham, New Amsterdam, the 5 Boroughs, etc.)!

With that said, it’s difficult to say which is the best or worst because there are so many options, and stores/restaurants close and open on a daily basis, so my list is specifically what I have narrowed down as some of my favorites. I obviously have many, many more restaurants to visit, so I’ll keep updating this page as I experience them!
