Places to Eat: One Day in NYC

Over the weekend, I went to NYC for a day and found some great to check out to eat! Here are my favorites from this weekend that I definitely recommend!

Pier 57: This little market place has lot of awesome options to choose from, especially if you love seafood like me!

The last two places aren’t at Pier 57, but they’re close by and were too good not to mention!
