how did you not explode?
that's
what
you will be asking
at the end of this post
upfront
I am going to admit
after a glass of Malbec
on Friday evening
I didnt care
if I took photos of the food
or not
AND
I only had the iPhone
in fact
all the food fotos
are iPhone-otos
possibly a new word
lunch at Land on Thursday
included
perfect size portions
fried calamari may be my favorite food
after our adventures at Top of the Rock
we went to dinner
chicken soup took the chill off
there were Gingerbread people for sale
in
Sugar and Plumm's bakery
Friday
we went to brunch
which by the way
felt
decadent
brunch on a weekday
at
Ditch Plains
fried jalapeño rings
and
cheddar jalapeño biscuits
salt water taffy
accompanied the check
and
included a dentist recco
no
it didn't
I am kidding
we walked off brunch
in Central Park
but not before stopping
for
this
Dinosaur with wreath
on the steps
of
the
Museum of Natural History
Toonman says
if I would crop it
just so
it
would be a whole other photo
we walked through the park
down to 72nd Street
take the obligatory
Strawberry Fields photo
the crowd at the
Imagine mosaic
was
nutz
after the park
a cornfield segue was necessary
we were headed to Times Square
fortunately that's
where
my office
is
back home to regroup before cabbing it to
Robert
which sits on the 9th floor of the Museum of Arts and Design our table looked out over Columbus Circle and up north over Central Park
this photo was taken last year the evening before Thanksgiving
we had some amazing food
but
as I said
I didnt get any photos
of
the entrees or salads
I am betting
Kate did
check out her blog
I did get some dessert shots
before and after
a chocolate mousse with a raspberry on top
'gifted' to us by the chef!
hazelnut ice cream
carrot cake
those are actual carrot slices
and
that's
cherry ice cream
Bombolini
delicious
ricotta dough balls
lightly fried
dusted with sugar
three dipping sauces
dark chocolate
white chocolate
and
salty caramel
oh
my
I actually weighed myself this morning
I may be fasting until 2013
