I met with a fellow hospitality professional during this visit and he is obsessed with hotel bars and restaurants. Having been in the industry for a very long time, he named the top 3 favourite places in New York - one of which was the NoMad Hotel's Elephant Bar. New York has got me addicted [...]

Breakfast at The Baccarat
I visited The Baccarat for the first time when it opened in 2014. At that time I was only passing through and didn't get a chance to properly try it out. The Baccarat is one of the most palatial properties I have ever visited. Having breakfast here made me realise how understated the actual experience [...]
The Wythe & My Snowstorm Adventure in Williamsburg
My first visit to The Wythe Hotel in Williamsburg and Brooklyn!
The Roasting Party
Pavilion Road holds a special place in my heart. I used to work with a perfume brand many years ago here and back then the street was dead - literally dead.

Bright, fresh and welcoming - this little cafe will transform the cafe culture in the neighborhood. I find spending time here very relaxing and very much at home. The staff is extremely welcoming and chatty [...]
Le Bilboquet, 20 E 60th
My favourite aspect of dining on the Upper East Side is the element of people watching that comes with it. Some places like Georgette's are relaxed, great finds if you are acquainted with the right circles in the city and some places like Le Bilboquet are UES institutions and must be on your bucket list [...]
Bar Italia, 768 Madison Ave
I was recommended this place in January by the owner of The Lowell Hotel. She suggested I go down with my friend for lunch after an intense morning of meetings and we were not disappointed. Bar Italia has stunning interiors, great service and heartwarming Italian food. I revisited in May during my birthday weekend and [...]
