Jules is a foodie who lives in London and flew here for the weekend to attend a friend's birthday. Here are her tips for first timers:
- Favorite hotel: The Greenwich Hotel in Tribeca.
- Favorite watering hole: The Spotted Pig. They do the best Bloody Mary's.
- Favorite Brunch spot: Definitely NOT the Standard Grill. They served me an uncooked egg in my burger!
- Restaurant that you really want to try: The Monkey Bar, Graydon Carter's new venture. We had a booking this weekend but it was a really late seating and the rest of the party were too jet lagged, so we cancelled!
- Favorite stores: Custo and Prada in SoHo. The staircase in Prada is amazing
- Favorite Neighborhood: SoHo for the shopping and the people watching
- On Broadway, musical or theatre: Definitely musical
- One thing a tourist should do in NY: Walk along the Hudson River. You catch glimpses of the Statue of Liberty and get a sense of space again after walking around the skyscrapers of midtown
- What didn't you do this time that you will do next time: Get lost in Brooklyn
- Any celeb sightings? Jude Law (well I think it was) and Sophia Loren walked right past me!
