During a friend’s visit back to the US, I played tourist for the day. We walked through Brooklyn Bridge Park, shopped in Sephora and took part in happy hours near Barclays.
It was a blast and like all good times, it flew by.

Weekend Walking
The winter weather in New York is finally making its exit and in hopes of soaking up much needed rays, I went walking.
Hello spring time in Brooklyn! I began my journey by having lunch at Cafe Luluc, in Clinton Hill. A much needed stroll after enjoying a lovely lunch with the goal of ending at Brooklyn Bridge Park meant taking in the sights of Fort Green, Downtown Brooklyn and Dumbo. The area was buzzing with tourists and locals alike dinning al fresco, jogging, sipping on ice coffee has definitely made me excited for the summer.
 
 
Italian food kick
Lately, I have been craving Italian food and thus I’ve been eating around trying new places and luckily my research has paid off because each one has been a hit.
Roberta’s– My tip is to go early for whatever service your interested in because it’s first come, first come seating.
The more people you have the more sampling you can do. Also, great Blood Mary’s!
Trattoria La Sorrentina– Get the Cozze Marinara aka the mussels and keep the bowl with sauce to dip the pizza crust in.
If you have room for dessert, the tiramsiu is top notch.
Alidoro– It’s hard to find a good Italian sub in New York with fresh ingredients. Avoid the line by going post 1:30.
Not pictured… Frank restaurant and vera bar- This place is awesome with a great rustic vibe.The food was rich with flavor and the portions were generous.
The night after my visit Chrissy & John Legend were enjoying the Thursday Special Lasagna Verdi Bolognese.  #coolpoints
