Summer 2009 in New York

Our days in NY were really fast. Luckily, we enjoy fine weather with blue sky almost daily. I can't believe we are back in Japan now X(

I will select and post pics briefly since I fall behind in everything.

Bethesda Fountaint in Central Park with my boyfriend.
CHEESEBURGER Platter at Jackson Hole - topped with American Cheese with Bacon, Served with Steak Fries, Lettuce and Tomato. I ordered Veggie version of BALDOUNI BURGER instead of meat (which was light, healthy and delicious!): Topped with Fried Onions, American Cheese & Sautéed Mushrooms. We visited Ground Zero. Surprisingly, the site was still under construction. We had back and forth Staten Island Ferry trips. The ferry is free from lower Manhattan to Staten Island. However, since I had a glass of wine at Jackson Hole, I slept back and forth on the ferry...

The High Line: a 1.45-mile (2.33 km) section of the former elevated freight railroad of the West Side Line, in Chelsea along the lower west side of Manhattan.
Green grass and flowers coming out from railway tracks were beautiful. We had a nice walk ;)

July 4th dinner at our favorite restaurant josie's east. Grilled Natural Chicken Breast Teriyaki and Freshly Ground Char-Grilled Brandt Natural Beef Cheeseburger. We saw fireworks way back to hotel through 42nd Street.

We had brunch at Sarabeth's Kitchen. Their Popeye Eggs were really delicious!!! The weather was super fine on this day. We found many bridal couples at Central Park. How romantic :)




Don't you think these sculptures funny?! Water from Hello Kitty and Miffy's eyes... They were located in front of an office building.


We had a special dinner at David Burke which was $20.09! You can get an appetizer, main course and dessert of your choice ;) Everything was great for our last dinner in NY.



On the very last day, before the bus time, we went to Central Park. Under the clear blue sky, we had sandwiches and coffee for breakfast. I wished time could stop for us. Believe it or not, guess what my boyfriend said?!
"Let's come back again next year after the marriage."
Was that his proposal?!?! I was super happy. It was something more than I expected.

I need to confirm him about it, though. Ha-ha!!!

Grilled Chicken Sandwich @ Grey Dog

Good morning! It is already the last day in NY! Time flies... I am using my bf's iPhone to write my post because somehow our pc is not connecting to the Wi-Fi service since day before yesterday...
Yesterday morning we had delicious chicken sandwich! We happened to find the cafe while walking :) Pressed warm with mozzarella pesto and roasted tomato. Yummy!!!

I will post the pic (and more pics) when I got home ;)

I miss NY!!!

Nougatine @ Jean Georges

Jean-Georges's egg benedict and smoked salmon omelet were perfect! The eggs were cooked deliciously soft! Also, I loved the jam they serve, which was Sarabeth's.

For dinner, we went to Morimoto (famous modern Japanese restaurant in America) but it was so-so... Not for Japanese I guess...
