It All Came Down To The Plaza...

My mom came to visit this past weekend and we did soooooo much. I'm exhausted. On Thursday we went to see The Little Mermaid on Broadway and it was pretty good! Afterward we went to eat a John's Pizzeria, a la RG's suggestion. On Friday we went on the Sex & the City Tour! It was really fun. They showed us around Manhattan and pointed out restaurants and shops that were used in the series and in the movie. They would show the scenes that the locations were used in and we got to get out and go into a few of them. That night we went to see Guys and Dolls on Broadway and we left after the first act. It was really boring and I was so disappointed. Oh well. We went to eat at Mr. Bell's fave place after that- Carmine's. It was good but since it's family style it was way too much food. The next day we did some shopping and then we went to eat at The Russian Tea Room- HORRIBLE. It was supposed to be a surprise for my mom for Valentine's day and it was prob the worst food we'd ever had. At one point my mom said, "I wish I could throw up and start over." HAHA It was hilarious. On Sunday we moved from our hotel in Times Square to THE PLAZA!!!! OMG it was freakin amazing! I want to live there soooo bad! It was so fancy and pretty and perfect for me ;-) We had champagne at the Champagne Bar and then we had dinner in The Oak Room and after that we had drinks in The Rose Room. My mom let me try a glass of Cristal champagne! It was good but not super special. My mom got kinda tipsy and started talkin politics with some strangers. It was entertaining/embarrassing...The Plaza was definitely the highlight of the weekend, I was so sad to leave, but I have a new respect for NY. I didn't like it too much at first but now I know where things are and I have a better idea of things to do!
