New York City - Day One

My wife and I were celebrating our 2nd Anniversary so we decided to go to New York City.  She was three months pregnant with our first child.  We flew into LaGuardia and took a cab to the Milford Hotel a block from Time Square.  The lobby of the hotel was impressive.   It looked very high class.  This is the only time I've been to New York city  so maybe this is the norm, but our room as as tiny as you could get.  There was no way the two of us could even be in the bathroom at the same time.

Once we checked in we decided to walk around to get our acquinted.  We walked up Time Square and then north on Broadway past the Ed Sullivan Theater.  Outside one of the staffers was offering tickets to the show the following day.  So we signed up and then continued walking up to and around Central Park down the path to Columbus Circle.  We then walked back to our hotel to get ready for dinner. 

For Dinner we went to Blue Water Grill on a friends recommendation.  It's located near Union Square.   We must have been seated in the Jazz Dining Room as they had a two piece jazz band there.  The band was good, our only complaint is that we were seated RIGHT next to them.  The restaurant itself was dimly lit and the food was excellent.

Honestly I don't remember exactly how much it cost. I want to say our hotel was about $199 per night which we thought was great for right off of Times Square. The dinner's were as expensive as you might think.

I am always delighted when people enjoy my home town. Next trip try a wonderful italian restaurant near that hotel called Carmine's. But only order one entre, they serve tons of food family style. Try the Congee House way down town for another taste treat. Visit the Museums, Guggenheim Museum, Museum of Natural History, Met. Museum of Art, there are so many and venture thru Grand Central Station just to see it. For something unusual try 47th street just off 5th Avenue, the diamind district, and window shop. And, of course, there is the Village ans SOHO. Hope you come back soon. By the way there are other less expensive hotels throughout the city.

I wish I could have such an opportunity.

You might want to consider the hotels in less "touristy" areas next time, to save money and get a better idea of what New York is all about.
