New York has always been my favorite city to visit. They have everything a girl could ever need: shopping, good food and trendy clubs. When taking the week off for my birthday, I had to stop at one of my favorite restaurants Jack’s Wife Freda.

This cute little bistro features American-Mediterranean food with classic cocktails in Soho. Their menu is not something you can find at your regular restaurant and although I’m a picky eater, I loved everything!

This was the best waffle in NYC (no that’s not a joke, yes you have to try it) it comes with fruits and Lebanese yogurt which is the best combination.

Oscar Wilde is a relatively new place, although you wouldn’t think so with all it’s decor. It is known for having the longest bar in New York. This vintage designed spot is filled with old photographs and quotes from Oscar Wilde’s works.

It wasn’t extremely busy for lunch when I went, but it’s a good spot to get drinks at their beautiful bar. The food was also amazing to say the least.

Vandal is a trendy and art filled spot that has everything you’ll need for the perfect Friday night. It features a bunch of Street art and trendy cocktails. It is very well known so I would recommend a reservation for sure, unless you just want to take a seat at the bar for some drinks.

They have a bunch of little tapas and great plates. Totally the perfect spot for ladies night since there are stairs that lead you to the club after dinner.

You always have to save the best for last, so here it is. Allora has to be on the top of my list, this might have to do with the fact that they have a 30 foot noodle (yes, 30 foot) with meatballs. You can ask for the dish with different sauces or other options, but the meatballs are delicious.

They even give you huge scissors to cut the noodles with! Although I was worried that it wouldn’t live up to the hype, it more than did. It was honestly the most delicious meal I’ve ever had! Don’t take my word though, definitely go check it out for yourself!
