CITY GUIDE: NYC
Sharing a list of my favorite places in New York City. Fair warning, I am a creature of habit so when it comes to restaurants, I’m usually a repeat customer at my favorite places. Hope you all enjoy this list! I typically like to save my favorite places on Google Maps so that when I’m out exploring, I can easily see what’s nearby in whatever neighborhood I’m wandering around that day. I’m breaking up this list by meals so you can find my favorite coffee shops, breakfast spots, and other restaurants.
