Valentine's in the City

Saturday night Rob and I drove into the city. We went to the Manhattan Temple and got yummy take-out. I learned how much I LOVE driving around the city when you are in your own car, instead of watching the cost of your cab ride climb every few seconds. We just drove around and saw time square, the fashion week tents and picked up some of our favorite NYC treats:

Joe's Shanghai soup dumplings

Pinkberry www.pinkberry.com (their website makes me laugh)


While I was waiting at Joe's Shanghai for our order, a woman that looked a LOT like Nicole Kidman and her crew came in...One of the customers exiting just about fainted she was so excited to see a famous designer. Can't remember who it was...but it was just funny and so New York. ;)

Although I don't mind the train, I hope this won't be the last time we drive into the city. The key is just finding a good parking coupon online!

Ooohh, we love hearing about new places to try in the city. And I totally love driving into the city as opposed to taking trains. Here's a site that shows cheaper places to park, in case you haven't seen the site: http://nyc.bestparking.com/index.php
