A good flat white is hard to find but this is one place in NYC that has coffee that tastes like it does back in New Zealand.

Karasu is our neighborhood go to for a chill date. It's a cozy, well-lit space with excellent cocktails and a small Japanese menu. The tonkatsu is amazing, and perfect for sharing because nothing says romance like a fried pork cutlet.

Consistently superb wlbrg staple. Good for coffee, lunch and lavish dinners.

a place to find gems and get lost in a visual research

I can’t get enough of the dioramas, but my favorite parts of the AMNH are the Halls of Meteorites and Minerals. There are some beautiful specimens here, and best of all you can actually lay your hands on the 4.5-billion-year-old Cape York Meteorite.
