We had a great day here in New York yesterday and walked around, picked up tickets for a Broadway show today and had a wonderful dinner with my niece (she operates Kitty Lee Thomas Sweets that has a link to the right on this blog) and closed out the day at the Monster Bar which is just down the street from where we stay.
During the afternoon we stopped at the Forbes Galleries (there is no admission charge) and enjoyed an exhibit on the liner U.S.S. United States - which was built less than 10 miles from our home in Hampton - along with some wonderful art work.
Dinner was at a Singapore style restaurant called Masak in the East Village. Whenever we are in New York two things always strike me: the diversity of the people and how many beautiful guys there are.
The only disappointment of the day was the Monster Bar where the supposed dance party had some of the most awful music I've heard anywhere. It's kind of shocking when Norfolk clubs have better music than a New York gay club. My advice to visitors to the City is to avoid the Monster Bar on Friday night. I love to dance, but we went home and I read a book - the music was that bad.
Today we plan on hitting the street fair in the lower east side near Chinatown where my niece is a vendor, hitting the show this afternoon and then dinner with the daughter of one of the boyfriend's clients who lives just down the street from where we are staying. We plan on dining at Philip-Marie here in the West Village where we have dined before and never been disappointed.
