Back from New York
Back home in North Canterbury and its great to be home!
I was in New York for 3 weeks and I wanted to share some of my pics of some of the things that I thought were interesting 🙂
So here’s my run down..
My Top 5 Best Bits from New York
- Seeing Family in New York (my brother lives there)
- Experiencing the diversity of the food – its just done right, eating out is part of the lifestyle.. because it’s such good value and they work hard to do it right..
- The New York Scenery!
- The Oysters – you can buy them EVERYWHERE… I love Oysters.
- New Yorkers are obsessed with Kiwi’s (New Zealanders) – I don’t know if it’s our accents or laid-back style but its a fact! If they keep up the good food – I’ll keep on being obsessed with them.
“New Yorkers are obsessed with Kiwi’s!”

McSorley’s the oldest bar in New York – always PACKED with people, cash only, sawdust floors. I’m going to write a blog about this place… bucket-list visit for sure!

Super famous pie – sweet and so different to anything I’ve expereinced (also try the Pumpkin Pie.. so good!) Theres a competition with the locals..
“Oysters.. Ceviche Seafood Salad… New Zealand Green Lipped Mussells”
Actually, one of the most hilarious interaction was talking to someone selling “New Zealand Bluff Oysters” – that clearly weren’t even an NZ species of oyster! And you won’t convince a New Yorker who knows they are right!? All of the oysters were amazing though..
