After Ida had been brutified, we headed back to the p-a-r-k. We saw some major turtles but had to end things early when Ida wallowed in some duck-poo. She smelled lovely!
Bryant, Dad, and I finally ventured out and made our way to the Museum of the City of New York. This is a pretty cool spot that Bryant and I have had our eyes on for a while. It had some amazing photography of the city, and we also enjoyed this great movie on the complete history of Manhattan and the other 4 boroughs.
A few of my friends from Del Frisco's were performing a cabaret in one of midtown's great piano bars, Don't Tell Mama. The show started at 6 and we sat among fellow DF workers to cheer on our friends. What a great NY adventure... a true cabaret in an underground piano bar. We are such New Yorkers.
Dinner was at one of my favorites, Becco. It is on 46th st in between 8th and 9th avenue (apparently this street is famously known as 'restaurant row'... I missed the memo on that one as a tourist). Becco has amazing Italian food and an extensive $25 a bottle wine list. Their most popular entree is their daily pastas--- for $22 you get a cesar salad and all-you-can-eat pasta. Their 3 fresh pastas tonight were spaghetti with tomato sauce, mushroom ravioli, and farfalle pasta with shrimp and arugula. The waiters walk around the restaurant with fresh pots of the pasta and scamper over when they see any "white" on your plate. Yummers!
Another great day in New York City! In conclusion, I leave you with these wise words:
