Title: New York
Post by: Lord Steve on May 23, 2006, 10:41:37 pm
Hello All
Thing is, and this is the thing, it's the old 25th Wedding Anniversary today and to celebrate (the woman needs a bloody medal) the memsahib and I are off to New York tomorrow for a bit of jollification and brownir=e points earning session prior to the LM jollie.
Now, having been a few times on business and pleasure, i know where to take the dear lady to see all the sights and stuff, it's her first time you see. However, I'm sure there's a few of you out there who know of some special bar where I can redeem my brownie points after I've taken her to Tiffany's.
Any advice?
Any suggestions?
I'll pick up any replies in the hotel.
See you all soon.

The Boat House - In Central Park over looking the lake (strange that) cracking sunday brunch
Bull & Bear - Waldorf Astoria - Lexington and 49th
The View - Mariott Marquis (Revolving) - Times Square - also has a bar at the top

You shouldn't miss this restaurant as a NY-first timer>> CLICK! (http://travel2.nytimes.com/top/features/travel/destinations/unitedstates/newyork/newyorkcity/restaurant_details.html?vid=1002207988230)
Have fun, and congrats. Only 37 days to go untill my 12½ years :-\
[edit] Just read the reviews, maybe not such a good hint on second thought. It used to be okay when I was there in '92 & '98, but apparently it all got too touristic. Pub itself should still be worth a visit, so just have yourself a drink at the bar then - can't go wrong with that, really :-\

Don't know what it's like at night, but the wife and I had a fantastic lunch here a few weeks ago. The downstairs bar looks tres chic. ;)
