Ahhhh! I’m so excited to be here!
The Electrolux people hooked us up with an amazing hotel called the Hotel Gansevoort in the Meatpacking District, and I’m totally obsessed! Well, actually, I’m obsessed with every fancy hotel that I encounter!


I’m going to sleep like a baby tonight!





Love the silk robe! I’ll definitely use that!

Swag!

The view from my room!

After spazzing out with excitement, I met up with Sabrina for lunch.

We walked over to Chelsea Market, a funky enclosed food court, to find some eats.





Sabrina and I walked around and checked out our options before deciding on Friedmans Lunch.

Friedmans Lunch serves traditional American food in a laid-back, cozy setting. I loved the decor– an open kitchen, dark wood tabletops, chalkboard menus, and vintage wallpaper.


With lunch, Sabrina and I drank water from an old wine bottle. It was very hip.

For lunch, I ordered the Vegetable Sandwich on sourdough. Inside was lots of veggies– carrots, cucumbers, tomatoes, sprouts– and a nice thick layer of hummus.

The sandwich was served along side some field greens and a delicious pickle.


It was an excellent lunch!

After lunch, we headed back to our hotel. Our first stop was the roof deck that overlooks the city. Check out this view!



Randomly, we ran into Meghann up there, so we took the opportunity to snap a photo together.

I’m going to squeeze in a quickie workout then get ready for a cocktail party!

That looks like a great hotel room and a fantastic lunch. I LOVE pickles. When I was writing restaurant reviews, I always gave extra points if the pickle that came with the sandwich was good.

So fun!! I have never been to the Chelsea Market. They created it after I moved away from NYC. Must visit next time I am there!
Yum! I love Friedmans veggie sandwich! And they have gluten free bread so I can finally have a sandwich while i’m out! Glad you’re loving ny
I’d love to go to New York some time. I’ve never been to the East Coast.
What a fancy hotel! I would sleep like a baby, too!
New York looks like it would be an amazing place to visit. It’s funny because I hear of all these different foods or restaurants on food blogs but never have the opportunity to try any. Now when I go to different cities, I’ll have to keep this all in mind!
That sandwich looks delish!

So exciting! I actually ate at Friedman’s the other weekend with my family and got the same sandwich, which was delicious, plus the sweet potato fries. Unreal! Have a great time in new york and hope you’re prepared for the snow storm that’s supposed to hit tomorrow!
