A steady stream of guests comes with the territory of living in New York City. 

Last weekend, my college friend turned London resident, Lauren (remember her here?) visited and the weekend was jam-packed with some of my usual guest go-to’s, including:

• Martinis at Commerce (the best in the city, in my opinion….)
• A stroll through the Village - West and Greenwich
• Lunch and people watching at Extra Virgin 
• Discovery of Myers of Keswick, a British shop in my neighborhood. Might be a sign…
• Mulled wine at Buvette
• A late night of dancing to Motown oldies at Bowery Electric
• Taco overkill at Tacombi
