a weekend here and there in Downtown
 |
| Abington Square Park |
Another mellow weekend is gone...walking here and there in downtown...
it has begun with a morning flower shopping in Chelsea, on 26th and 27th btw 6 and 7 Avenue you can do the most inspiring flower shopping in town and during this early spring is a rainbow of colors!
To keep my colored mood and be healthy, before a huuuge saturday dinner, i went @Melvin's Juice Box (@Miss Lily's) http://misslilysnyc.com/melvins! One of my "healthy mecca" in town! First because Melvin is from Jamaica and while he mix your smoothie you can "jammin with Bob Marley" and be happy, second because his juices are magic :) they make your skin glow, try the Jamaican Green!!!

For dinner we headed to Williamsburg where my friend Jamie was celebrating his bday! As everybody know i'm a "foodie" and first time i came @Diner http://dinernyc.com/ i was tooootally diffident but after i tried i changed my mind! The food is delicious and for private parties you can book this old little trailer in the backyard so lovely! We've had a wonderful party!!!
I bought the cake, ricotta cheese cake, from one of the italian trattoria Pepolino http://pepolino.com/...may i say is the best cheese cake in town?!?!?!

Why I love NYC...
this town it's a port, a kaleidoscope, a crazy circus, in one day you can experience 100 different worlds, meet old and new friends from all over around the world, meet yourself, forget yourself, find a treasure!
Saturday was a sunny day and i've organized a lunch @Sant Ambroeus West Village with my friends from Bologna, www.fiorentini-baker.com and Micol Danieli (the coolest young italian DJ, next summer she will play in Ibiza).Then we went for a walk and for some book shopping @Three Lives & Co. www.threelives.com (best independent book store in the West Village) and "inspirational" shopping at my "mecca" Greenwich Letterpress http://greenwichletterpress.blogspot.com/!
If you like creative greeting cards, paper accessorie, stamps & related stuff this is a little paradise where you can buy the most original and rare stuff!
At 6.30pm i met another group of friend for a "wild" tour out of Manhattan...wooowww...totally weird for me if you think that i'm the only newyorker that never use the subway!!! Tom Downey, an amazing travel writer and ethnic food expert organized a NY "Ethnic Excursion" into NYC's 4th largest foreign-born population (that you've never heard of)--in Little Guyana, an Indo-Caribbean neighborhood in Richmond Hill, Queens. 
We've had a lot of fun: 25 Manhattan "animals", out of their zoo, walking around Richmond Hill on the steps of Jack Kerouac (he was born here) tasting cold Caribbean beer and authentic indo-caribbean (?!?!) food...
After 3 hours out of "my island" i was feeling lost and i happily came back to Downtown, meet Micol and jump from one loft party to another one, until "too late" for an old chicken like me!

Finally today i've had my Sacred-Sunday-Mellow-Morning...shopping magazines @Casa Magazines (if you want to meet the "uber gotha" of the fashion system, just spend 30 min here every morning!), than breakfast and people watchin' at @home/SantAmbroeus, then an inspiring food shopping @Buono Italia (inside Chelsea Market) here i can find have the best italian product, sardinian Bottarga included!
