Hitting the Town

After a full day of shopping and taking in the sights we spent the evening with our friends that live in NYC.

JCW & The Tiz

It was a gorgeous night so we sipped champagne on the roof deck before heading out.

The first stop was The Waverly Inn for drinks.

For dinner we went to The Spotted Pig in the West Village.

We ordered Dark 'N' Stormys and it was one of the best I have ever had. The key to a delicious Dark 'N' Stormy is not being stingy with the lime...the more juice the better!

 JCW started with a delicious Bone Marrow appetizer and we both had the Burger with Roquefort Cheese. After all of the calories I burned during the day walking, that burger was just what I needed.

The Spotted Pig is a warm and cozy restaurant filled with an eclectic array of pig decor. They don't take reservations but it's worth the wait.

Today is the last day to enter my giveaway from Graphic Image. I hope everyone is safe this weekend and Irene goes easy on us! xx

    The rainbow leg warmers are the BEST! You look gorge as usual. Hope you've stocked up with D&S for the weekend. Hope you are high and dry for the storm.

    An actual Dark 'n' Stormy only has a slice of lime. No lime juice at all.

    I'm with you, extra lime. An "actual" Dark 'n' Stormy is the one that tastes best. Love the Waverly Inn along with One If By Land Two If By Sea.
