Day #6

Chocolate Croissants


Chocolate Mustache


Walking down the Hudson River Park








Mini Golf!

Boo-yah!









Public veggie and herb gardens









Walking to dinner at A Voce:








Fabulous spread!
From left to right: radishes with anchovy and olive oil (anchovies are salty and delicious and deserve a chance- try them!), air cured beef (similar to beef carpaccio), roasted beets, ricotta spread with grilled bread. And that was just our appetizers!
Yes we are fatties!


And this appetizer: pulled mozzarella with fava beans, cauliflower, mint, and olive oil... Yum o!


My entree: Ravioli stuffed with eggplant and ricotta in a tomato sauce with pine nuts, raisins, and basil- yum!!


Scotts entree: fresh pasta with oven dried tomatoes, anchovy (I'm telling you, they are so good!) and parsley


After our feast we went to see a Broadway show, "How to Succeed in Business without Really Trying"- staring Harry Potter!!! Ok, I know his name is Daniel Radcliffe, but he is always Harry Potter to me!


OMG, this show was absolutely phenomenal! John Larroquette also played supporting actor- remember him from that 80s show Night Court? He played Dan Fielding in that show. He was excellent in this play- but not as excellent as Harry Potter!! He did an amazing job, and has a great singing voice! I highly recommend seeing this if any of you come to NYC!



Illegal picture but I took it anyway! In the front on the left wearing the suit is Harry Potter, with John Larroquette next to him on right:



Me and Harry! :)


Times Square at night:











We can never come to NYC without visiting our favorite piano bar:



It is very cheesy, but they always sing Broadway showtunes and we love it! Don't Tell Mama never disappoints!

Since we had a super early dinner at 5:00 in order to see the show, we were hungry again (naturally!) Went to the Meatballl Shop and had fabulous meatballs.



They had beef, chicken, and lamb meatballs, but they were all cooked in pork fat. All but the vegetarian meatballs, which were made of lentils. Poo.

Scott said screw it, and ordered one beef meatball slider. He also had one Veggie meatball slider:


I had vegetarian "meat"balls on spaghetti with red sauce- mmmm! Very good!


Also shared creamy cheesy risotto:



We Succeeded at NYC without really trying!
