Here are some pictures from a trip to New York. I went to a Japanese restaurant with a friend near Astor Place and while the food didn't compare to what I've had in NorCal and Toronto, it was still a lot of fun. It's a lovely section of the city and better than the meal were the Puddin' Pops from Puddin NYC on St. Mark's Place. Sadly, we ate the pops too quickly to photograph.

I also chanced upon a new clothing line, Maison Kitsuné, which has a boutique inside the NoMad Hotel in Chelsea. The store is quite minimalist, but still inviting. A collection inspired by The Great Gatsby was showcased, which I thought was a lot of fun for a high-end Parisian line in the city.
