highlights:
Fitz & the Tantrums show at Terminal 5. this was my first visit to the venue and it was pretty spectacular - much larger than i expected but wonderful nonetheless. F&T rocked - perfect party/dance music - it's like southern beach music band meets indie.
a full day to myself to peruse the stores. the shoe floor at Barney's NEVER dissapoints.
ridiculously amazing italian food at Emilio Ballato's, jalapeno cocktails at Mayahuel and a cozy night with friends Jo's in Nolita.
a visit and afternoon beers at Brooklyn Brewery lead to buzzed browsing and some sweet finds next door at Sound Fix Records. im already obsessing over the She & Him Christmas album we got on vinyl. sooo good.
finally a much anticipated stop at Eataly. i had the best paninni of my life and could have eaten and purchased everything in there. of course we're approaching the holidays and it was slam packed. one day i will get there when it opens and magically have someone pick me up with an arm full of fresh, gourmet italian ingredients.
i'm definitely getting that CD. it's the best christmas album i've heard in a long time.
ReplyDeleteLove the She+Him Christmas CD - I bought it a few weeks ago and love it. Brooklyn Brewery is one of my favs also! Jeal of your NYC weekend. Can't wait to see you so soon!
ReplyDeleteI just got back from NYC as well and visited Eataly for the first time! I was in the same heaven that you were while I was in there and can't wait to visit again!
