Business Trip to NYC🇺🇸 Best NYC itinerary: favorite restaurants🦞 Chelsea market, Aladdin Broadway🎭

Hi everyone, I'm Carine. Right now, I'm at Taoyuan Airport ✈️. This time, I'm not flying to Europe.

I'm heading to New York 🇺🇸. Here's my outfit for today. Before boarding the plane, I'm going to relax in the VIP lounge. Now, let's unbox their overnight kit. I really like this color; I think it's quite beautiful. Inside, there are many small items (toiletries and skincare products). It also includes a card holder and an eye mask. Ready for dinner! Paired with a glass of red wine 🍷. some pre-dinner snacks.

I don't know what's inside this one. (Egg crepe roll with smoked duck and apricot compote) I didn't carefully read the menu. It's tasty, but I find it a bit too sweet. Cream cheese with mushroom. The cheese flavor is really intense. Delicious~🤍. This is our appetizer (Ginger and scallion baby abalone, tea plum prawn, black garlic vegetables). and it looks...(very delicious).

It doesn't have any fishy taste. so I think it's quite good (Paired with the chili on top, it's really delicious 🌶️). The shrimp is also tasty~ 🦐. Pumpkin cream soup with scallops and seaweed croutons. It can compete with the restaurant's thick soup!!! This is my main course. I ordered the chicken flavor (Chicken bourguignon served with mashed green peas and potatoes). but for some reason, it doesn't look very delicious 😅. Let's see how it tastes. It's much tastier than I imagined! (But I don't love it 🥺). Dessert after the meal. Apricot tart with oriental beauty tea jelly. So cool~.

It's not very sweet. has a hint of tea flavor. and a jelly-like texture. Delicious and satisfying~ 😋. Now, I'm going to change into pajamas 💤. First, let's brush my teeth 🪥.

Time to wake up and have breakfast 🍴. Finally, it's almost time to go to the USA~ 🇺🇸. Breakfast is too abundant; I can't finish it all~ 🥺. Just arrived in New York 🇺🇸. Already dropping off the luggage at the hotel. The hotel is conveniently close to Grand Central Terminal. decided to take a stroll here first. Our first stop in New York is in the lower west side of Midtown.

Here, there are many iconic photo spots. such as "The Vessel" resembling a beehive. the elevated park known as "The High Line". the Chelsea Market. and the unique floating park called "Little Island". As for "The Vessel," unfortunately, it's temporarily closed due to a previous incident. but you can still explore the first floor. you just can't access the observation deck. Here we are!!! Now, we are on The High Line. a park built on abandoned railway tracks, creating a picturesque walkway.

Continuing along, we'll reach Chelsea Market. We'll also have a look there. some unique art installations 🐬. Next up is Little Island, the floating park. So cool! an amazing place where you can enjoy views of New York City. including a tiny Statue of Liberty.

Where is it?! Here we are! 🤣. Before heading to Chelsea Market, we decided to stop by a coffee shop for a cup of coffee ☕️. The coffee is smooth and delicious. Having a walk after and we arrived Chelsea market. We found a variety of things here.

like art gallery, and plenty of food, clothes, and unique items. This canvas bag is so cute. Bought these two postcards—Times Square and the view of New York. Full of Christmas vibe 🎄. After exploring Chelsea Market. we're taking the subway to a highly-rated Italian restaurant🍴. This is the restaurant we discovered.

It has a long line, but luckily, we made a reservation. Every dish is incredibly delicious. and we especially enjoyed the lobster spaghetti 🦞. Having just finished the fantastic lobster dish. we found a nearby well-known French dessert shop.

called Sweet Rehab 🇫🇷. Besides indoor seating, they also offer outdoor seating. The desserts are exquisitely presented! Love this dessert shop. Now it's time to check into the hotel. This is the room I'll be staying in tonight in New York. As soon as I entered the room, there's a full-body mirror.

This is my outfit of the day. Surprisingly, New York is not as cold as I imagined. The hotel staff has been thoughtful, allowing me to drop off my luggage at 10 in the morning. Having just checked in, I found my luggage already placed in the room. One remarkable feature of this room is that it offers a view of the streets of New York. Next to the bed, there's a mini-bar with some snacks.

Moving on to the bathroom, it looks impeccably clean and is equipped with toiletries. The shower area looks quite nice ✨. Now, I'm off to see a Broadway musical. This is my first time experiencing a Broadway show. In the beginning, I was hesitating to watch The Lion King, Aladdin or Harry Potter. There are so many options. So I googled, and people said that the stage effects of Aladdin are stunning.

In the end I decided to go for Aladdin and I'm really looking forward to it. Passing through Times Square. Here we are!!! The theater looks absolutely beautiful! Finally, back at the hotel. Due to the jet lag, I almost dozed off for a moment. but the show was truly captivating. Attending a Broadway musical in New York is a must.

and it's something you won't regret. Now, it's around 11 o'clock. Time for a shower 🚿 and then some rest 💤. See you tomorrow, bye bye. Good morning. Now, I'm getting ready to check out of the hotel. The weather today is nice, so I feel quite lucky. See you soon, bye! Here is Rockefeller Center. even in mid-November, there's a fantastic Christmas atmosphere. It's beautiful~.

The building in front is Top of the Rock. and many people come to their observation deck for a view of the entire city. It's crowded around Rockefeller Center. and there is a beautiful cathedral right next to Rockefeller Center. Here is it!

Now, I'm walking on Fifth Avenue, heading to Central Park. I made plans with a friend to have brunch at a restaurant there. Our reservation for brunch is about 15 minutes away. so I decided to take a stroll in Central Park. The weather is amazing today. and the sun is shining ☀️. Yesterday was quite cloudy. There are many horse-drawn carriages here 🐎. and this one is particularly beautiful, especially with the purple carriage behind it.

I've been loving purple lately 💜. One great thing about New York is that they've created many parks. Like The High Line we visited yesterday. Here in Central Park, there are lots of people walking their dogs 🦮. I feel like if Molly, my dog, were here in this weather, she'd be so happy. The brunch restaurant we're going to is Sarabeth's.

Wow, the food looks delicious😋 And it really is!!! After brunch, I returned to Central Park to walk and digest. There are many beautiful scenes inside. It looks amazing. Lots of people are ice skating ⛸️. the weather is perfect for sitting around, having a picnic, and taking a stroll. In the middle is the ice skating rink we saw earlier.

Just left Central Park, now I'm taking the subway to Brooklyn Bridge.

There are so many people here 🥶. This is Manhattan Bridge. This place is incredibly beautiful~ 🤍. We just walked from Brooklyn Bridge to Dumbo. See you next time New York City💛.
