Since we've moved here we've been so busy that its hard for us to find time to make it into the city to explore, even though we only live 30 minutes away. However, right after we got back from visiting our family we had some friends come into town and it was a great excuse to motivate us to take a trip in.
of course it was SO great to see our friend Cameron again and for the first time we were able to meet his fiance Kate. all we have to say is that we LOVE her!! and we are so happy that cameron was able to find such a great girl.
On our trip into the city we decided to make it a food tour. We drove our car in, and we picked cameron and kate up from Battary Park. From there we headed to brooklyn for pizza at Grimaldi's which is located right under the brooklyn bridge. In our opinion, this is quintessential NYC pizza, and we were happy to hear that they loved it as much as we do. After that we headed down to China Town to the Donut Plant (technically its not in china town, but you have to go through it to get there). OMG the donuts are SO SO good, especially the coconut cream. And the best part is that once they found out Kate works for the washington post they started just handing us free donuts to try. AWESOME! From there we went to serendipity 3, unfortunately there was a long wait so we didn't stay. However, its close to central park so we went for a walk around the park. Afterward we took them back to their hotel. It was a crazy fast paced day, but we did have a really great time!
