C&C on the Move

Last week C&C hit the road to NYC! The reason for our trip was that Katie was named "Top 40 Under 40" by PR Week magazine. She is too modest to say it, but since she's my sister, I can...it was a BFD!

Let's start at the end of our trip with the whole reason for our visit, the PR Week dinner. Katie was recognized along with 39 other PR industry superstars! We were joined at the dinner by our parents, 3 of Katie's colleagues, and 3 of her BFFs.

I am a pretty proud sister!

The rest of the visit was filled with three of our favorite things: walking, eating and shopping! We walked across the Brooklyn Bridge on Sunday to meet with with a friend and her family. We experienced an incredible culinary experience in Dumbo called Smorgasburg that is not to miss! She also pointed out the building where Olivia Palermo and Anne Hathaway live. We didn't see either of them. I did, however, pass Carson Kressley walking down 5th Avenue in Midtown. I wish he had stopped to give me a makeover!

Some of our stops during our short visit included DVF and The Standard Grill in the Meatpacking district, The High Line Park, and Eataly.

All of our restaurant suggestions came from friends who have lived or live in the city! Thanks MK, KH and AL for helping to make our dining experiences nothing short of amazing!

Here is a list of the places we ate in case you have an upcoming trip! All of these are incredible!

City Bakery- The best whole wheat croissant you have ever tasted, among other fabulous pastries and cookies
L'Apicio- Delicious modern Italian food
Public- Incredible food, drink and atmosphere
Locanda Verde- Hip Italian food in Tribecca. And a side note...the male staff is exceptionally good looking.
