Thank you everyone for the restaurant advice. It really was a terrific trip being able to see amazing shows and be out and about. New York felt buzzing again with people so happy to be around.
This time we didn't hit up the recommendations as our family ended up making other plans for us but will share a few great new things we did/places we visited that might appeal to others.
- Bar Blondau at the Wythe Hotel Brooklyn. A stunning bar on the 6th floor of this cool hotel has incredible views of Manhattan and one of the best Negronis I've ever enjoyed.
- Bateaux New York Premier Dinner Cruise (I thought it might be corny but it was stunning with nice food, stunning views and an overwhelming sense of the scale of the city- loved it)
- Citybikes hired and cycle round Central Park. I had never been to the North side of the park so the bikes allowed us to cycle all around on a lovely sunny morning!

The food at Ellen's Stardust Diner is awful - not worth it even for the experience. Was just going to say it’s gone really downhill and the whole interior gives off a grubby feel. Over priced lukewarm food. Be prepared to be left with plates surrounding you on other tables. It’s v v busy. Bit disappointed on our last trip Last time we went I spotted a cockroach in the loos - made me feel like a proper New Yorker!! 🥴 |
