The Bronx Botanical Garden is a place my father and I have been going to since I was a child. Here’s a photograph I took of him here. It has hundreds of species of trees and flowers. Sitting in the middle of the Bronx, it’s most recognizable as a green oasis from the grays and concrete of city life.

New York / Shop

ANTHOM’s gallery-like store on Mercer Street is all about presentation, and their selection of pieces from designers like Lady Artigas, Mari Giudicelli, Yune Ho, Marni, and Suzanne Rae is displayed with an eye for design.

New York / Garden Centre

This is a hot spot for plant enthusiasts. A recurring L.A. pop-up where the employees can tell you as much or as little as you want to know about cacti. Marco can tell you about the trees. Must visit, but only open April/May - September/October.

New York / Beach

Coney Island is the best for everything - the beach, the rides, the beer - but mostly for the Skee Ball. It's incredibly addicting, affordable and satisfying (depending on your aim).

New York / Shop

Fun shopping for very well-curated vintage. It feels like a series of art galleries that sell clothing and housewares.

New York / Restaurant

I love having Breakfast at Le Coucou - you'll find me here several times a week. Le Californien, OJ and Expresso! Dinner is very formal - but amazing if you dig the French high-end, but Pro tip: They have amazing drinks, so drop by and hang in the bar for a few drinks!
