The Sill is one of our favorite places to shop for plants in all of New York City, offering amazing customer service and a busy calendar of events in their tiny shop on Hester Street to help you learn exactly how to keep that fiddle leaf fig or pothos alive.

Its a great Saturday after museums visit, a Viennese Cafe, for a clear white wine and apple strudel.

Lunch there before a visit at the MET with a walk in Central Park

Elsewhere is a converted warehouse space that serves as a music venue, art space, and bar. I recently went here for the first time to see Yaeji spin her latest EP, EP2. The walls were banging, the light design was unreal and even when in the back, the space feels intimate AF.

Delicious soft scrambled egg, cracked pepper and speck for breakfast or lunch :-)
