Where to Dine in NYC

Book mark this! New Yorkers love to eat. We love to go out to eat, and we love find the best places, with the most interesting ambiance at various prices.
Here are the sites that I use to find where to go in my home town.

Yelp! Here I list my reviews for places to eat. It is a great user created reference on a variety places to visit as well.

Menu Pages List of restaurants with customer reviews, menus and more. Excellent resource!

Our favorites that we book marked on Delicious

Buen Provecho!

Thanksgiving Day Parade 2009













Every third thursday in November is Thanksgiving. Here is a picture of Peter carving the turkey the last time we had a Thanksgiving dinner at our loft. We cooked two turkeys and served dinner to about 20 people. This year will be another adventure. For us this holiday is about family and friends. About slowing down, watching a parade, watching football, setting up the table and sharing a meal with the people you know, and the people you are getting to know. It is about family and friends.

In New York we start off the holiday with the Macy's Thanksgiving day parade. Information can be found here. The parade starts at 9AM so we suggest you get there early for a good view or else you can catch it on TV. Right after the holiday is Black friday, the start of Christmas shopping. Hold on to your wallet! Happy Thanksgiving!!

If you are an artist, a collector or just interested in the art market I can't help but recommend that you read and follow this series, Marketing Mondays.
