Is it possible to not fall in love with New York? I don't think so and without exaggerating - I fell in love with EVERYTHING about NY. It's energy, the light, the sunsets, the sounds of sirens, the yellow cabs and the fire escapes.
This is the first part of my up-to-date Travel Guide in New York, hope you love this city as much as I did...
ROOFTOP BARS & RESTAURANTS
Mr Purple
If I lived in New York I would go to this magical Rooftop Bar - Every. Single. Day. We loved this place so much we went here several times during our stay in New York (This is something I rarely do). Best time to go is definitely around the golden hour - 5pm but if you catch the sunset or go here in the middle of the day you will still see one of the most beautiful views of Lower East Side. Their Chips & Guac on Blue Corn Tortilla Chips are to die for!
Catch
Located in The Meatpacking district you’ll find this charming, trendy and buzzing restaurant which is perfect for dinner with friends, some wine on their terrace which is light up by fairy light or a pre-drink on a Friday night. Keep in mind it’s very popular so the waiting time can be up to 2h so booking in advance is highly recommended.
Restoration Hardware RT
This is an extremely cool rooftop restaurant where the name kind of gives away it’s secret... As you enter this hidden treasure you’re first sight is just a really high end restoration store. If you know you know, and you find yourself asking the doorman for the rooftop. This doesn’t say on their website neither our hotel knew this so we were lucky enough to find this Place. Once on the rooftop, the interior is black, green and discrete. The view of the Meatpacking district is fantastic. Highly recommended.
