“Somewhere between living and dreaming there’s New York”

New York, NY

There’s no place like it in the world. A city that is ever-changing and on the move, yet manages to keep a sense of “same”. Unique for so many reasons, what I love most about New York City is its diversity in people, cultures and cuisines. It’s an entire world at your fingertips every day.

Ask any New Yorker, and they’ll tell you their list of go-to favorites. Here’s my personal guide, which includes old and new. Embark on a culinary expedition through the diverse flavors of New York City with my ultimate guide to the best restaurants, cafés, wineries, and things to do in and around the city. From trendy hotspots to hidden gems, I've meticulously curated a list of dining establishments that promise a gastronomic adventure for every palate and things to do you cannot miss.

Whether you’re a tourist visiting the Big Apple for the first time or a local looking to try something different - I hope this guide offers you a glimpse at something new in NYC.
