Day 8: Guggenheim Museum, Madison, Soho and TriBeCa
That was a lovely day in New York. I went to the beautiful Guggenheim museum, that was great! I loved the most all the modern artists and Claude Monet. For lunch we chose The Mark’s Hotel restaurant. I have ordered crispy sushi and… A hamburger with truffle dressing! On Madison Avenue we went to a gorgeous boutique of Bond No.9 Perfumes. I found even perfumes with Andy Warhol!
Then, we had our last walk on Soho… That was beautiful. We looked at all those artistic jewellery, people that wore cool clothes and looked at those beautiful house… For dinner we went to TriBeCa, an new to us region. The restaurant that we chose was the Nobu. The sushi there was awesome. We ordered an tempura lobster, nigiri of sawara, bluefin tuna, snow crab, then usual shrimp tempura, the bestseller of Nobu, the Black Cod Miso, and sashimi tacos from tuna, crab and lobster!!! Everything was gorgeous. The same as New York.
Day 7: Upper West Side, American Museum of Natural History, Central Park and Broadway
Museum of Natural History, was gorgeous! I saw such amount of different cultures! I loved the most Aztecs and Mayas, Indians, Nepal, Japan, and Northern Asia! I am just wondering how is it possible that so much antiques, sculptures and others came to one place… Because MoNH is close to Central Park, we wanted to see it and take a long tour on bicycle-car with the guide.
As for me, Central Park is the most beautiful park in the world! It is so green and so… Natural!!!!( we need to remember that it was made totally by human and it is in the middle of metropolis). We saw the apartament were Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt live when they are in NY. We saw Lenny Kravitz house and Marilyn Monroe apartament were she lived for 3 years. But the most important was the Dakota Building were Yoko Ono lived with John Lennon. We saw even the window of Yoko Ono, and where was Lennon shot… Of course we had to see also Strawberry Fields, an Memorial of this legendary singer, designed but Yoko. The walk in Central Park was great!!!
For the dinner we went again to Morimoto restaurant in Chelsea. And that was delicious I ate an Uni, sea urchin, raw octopus, udon noodles for cold and my favourite- wagyu beef carpaccio and tuna sushi rolls. And on eight, we went on Broadway to Chicago Musical. We had a lot of fun there! They were dancing, singing, killing… After we had a short walk on Times Square and we caught a taxi and returned back to the hotel. Of course we had an excellent day in NY!
