New York City, part 3

There are three main things that inevitably happen when I go to NYC, and that's eat, shop, and eat some more. 

Sunday continued the streak of impossibly beautiful autumn days, so we began with a leisurely brunch in the West Village. It was impossibly teeny tiny, and the small menu was just right, mostly filled with their specialty, gourmet paninis in as many combinations as one could want. 

This was followed by sugar-coated almonds Uptown, coal-fired slices of New York pizza in Midtown, New York street dogs in Herald Square, and finally, perfect spicy fish soup at gastropub Blue Ribbon back in the Village. In between all the eating, there was also some vintaging in TriBeca where I unearthed THE most wonderful old skirts (including my new old 1970s Burberry wool skirt!!), shopping at Macy's on 34th Street with my mom and sis, and languid strolls through Central Park. I heart New York!
