Day 2 started with a short cab ride to the Upper West Side. It was time to start my visit with my gal pal, Kalei. She left for work and I walked over to Le Pain. I was actually introduced to this yummy breakfast and lunch stop in Manhattan Beach, Kalei's last residence. The Brunette spread is a must for toast in the morning, so I stocked up.
After fueling up, it was time to head to Soho for a day of shopping. I stopped by
Opera Gallery and found David Choe's work...
Ron English...
and John John Jesse.
There weren't too many pictures from my shopping day, as I was frantically trying to cover all of the stores on Broadway in Soho. It was truly a shopper's paradise and I will definitely be back.
Day 3 started with a walk through Central Park. I was heading to the east side, for a day of museum exploration.
I kicked it off with a look at the The Guggenheim. I love the design of this building. There was a huge abstract art exhibit.
Then it was off to the Metropolitan...
I always love the art in this section of the Met...
Kalei actually met up with me for lunch and came to check out the Prada exhibit at the Met. Then it was time to walk Madison Ave. First stop, La Maison du Chocolat. The tea and chocolate pairing with a slice of chocolate cake was amazing and a good time to rest our feet from all that walking.
Further down the street was Laduree. The chocolate and pistachio macaroons were to die for, and I'm glad I insisted on stopping here.
