10 Photos from New York

#1 Lunch at Draught55 with co-workers

I’m a total sucker for restaurants with a big beer list, comfort food, and rustic decor. Draught55 was awesome.

#2 Watching The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time

My sister picked out this show, based off a book I had read years and years ago. I knew nothing about the production of the play, but when I walked in, the stage was super impressive. I was expecting a high-tech show, which it definitely was, but what I wasn’t expecting was to be so moved by the storyline. It’s a mix of storytelling through dance, words, and projection. Loved it.

My dad and sister were staying at The Quin. The roof deck made for an excellent office for the morning.

#4 Dinner at Brushstroke

My friend high school friend Katherine is a front-of-house captain at Brushstroke, so she invited my family to dine there on Friday night. It easily the most enjoyable Japanese meal I’ve ever had. Every dish was delicately plated, and each bite was thoughtfully designed. And it was super fun to have Katherine run the show at dinner!

#5 Central Park Dog-watching

First, I went to Central Park and watched pups play in sprinklers.
