an amalgamation here so bear with me:

-🍜 Very Fresh Noodles: Nestled in the back of Chelsea Market this place has such delicious noodles, vegan options too! Not too expensive and a great place to catch up with loved ones you haven’t seen in a while ! - 🐠Lamias Fish Market: Call me cheesy but I love the commitment this restaurant has to theme and the interiors are so so beautiful! - 🌳Sheep Meadow as soon as the temp is livable to be sitting outside. One of the most magnificent places, its like Love Actually and is such a perfect and beautiful place to read, have reunions, get inspired by adorable dogs, and depending on where you sit slash if you’re me - dodge frisbees. Honorable mentions for the Mall and then the benches near the sea lions at the Central Park Zoo - 🍕Arthur Avenue in the Bronx: You can find the most magnificent Italian food and goodies here. I think about the Zero Otto Nove butternut squash truffle pizza daily. I also usually stop at one of the markets for a mangonada every time I’m there and now I want one ugh - 🖼️ The Wrightsman Galleries at the Met: I take most art tolerant people visiting the city to this exact spot because it’s simply so magnificent and the lighting is so gorgeous the way it hits all the furniture and changes room to room. I usually also stop into the Albertine from here for the breathtaking room in the lobby and of course the bookstore! - 🎭 Most Shows tbh: of course I’m a theater kid and cringe is the fabric of my lore!! There are so many ways to find relatively approachable tickets for shows whether it’s via lotteries, TDF, today tix, etc. I am fully indoctrinated from my high school eras so take this with a grain of salt but I have wept at some point every time I see a show post lockdown because it’s so unbelievable to experience so many raw emotions in a room of people and to see performers leave everything on the stage multiple times a week!! Agh I’ll cry rn just thinking about it!! - 🌉Most anywhere in Brooklyn: I don’t go here nearly enough and I also lack creative lore so drop me anywhere in Brooklyn and I’m oooing and aahing!! Space is probably the first differentiator, and from there I just love all the more bespoke little stores and restaurants, bars and fashion, and of course the Brooklyn Museum! -

quiet places in the city

I grew up in the city and finding quiet (and free) things to do made me fall in love with it. Interior green belt loop (a lush walk under canopies of trees / blackberries) Clipper Community garden (oasis of fruits and flowers and lemon) theres a teeny garden by the Chaparral Country Corporation that is so sweet and filled with native plants. Gorgeous hidden spot with places to sit and think. Hope someone enjoys these recs❤️

Wandering big cities

just getting off at a random stop during the day and seeing what there is... cool neighbourhoods, restaurants, parks and tiny bookstores

The purity of boomers who try to stay up to date w evolving technology

my dad got chatgpt for dummies & has been practicing daily sending my family AI generated texts (side note- English is not his first language so the right prompts are more difficult for him to come up with). seeing this just truly made me melt. he’s observing the world change and making a concerted effort to keep up. just pure
