Manhattan Re-discovery - Snap Shots

You jump I jump.






















Lovely paper art at SOHO.





Mouth-watering ham at Little Italy.

















I wanted to suggest my friend to have a nice hair cut but It was too late.

















Somebody just has ran away from the wonderland.

















Parking lots dedicated for little things.


A weird building.






















Tempting pasta available at the Museum of Sex gift shop.


Some showpieces at the Museum at FIT.

















The entrance of a building in the Upper East side looked like those valuable collections in museums.






















Coke bottle collection.

















Changing brain washing material.

















Love the landmark design as it perfectly matches the Fashion District.






















I would give the company a try if I can.

















The Metropolitan Opera House and Avery Fisher Hall with the moon at back created a romantic feel.

Manhattan Re-discovery - Yummy Food

Vietnamese food in Chinatown. Yummy and in big portion.

















Food stall around Chinatown / Soho. The lamb with rice is unforgettable. My friend and me tried other dishes in another day.
















 

















Big and sweet strawberries. Around US$2 for a box. How cool!

















Shake Shack, one of the top 10 burger shop in New York. I personally highly recommend.







































Hot mushroom soup and Peter Luger sandwich. Meat monster would enjoy the sandwich much.


Remember this deli's name as their sandwich was really great.


No matter which kind of restaurant you go in the US. The portion is very big. Lucky the lobster tasted good otherwise it would be a waste to give up such a big meal.


What kind of meal did we have at the cost of US$2.5? The answer was 2 slices of face-sized plain pizzas plus a can of soft drink. Amazing! The set was sufficient to feed my friend and me.


Meat again. American is really a paradise for meat lover. The biscuits were yummy too.


My friend and me finished the dish together. But my other friends who have lived in the US for long could finish a main oneself.






















Wow Angus burger. Tasted ok. Steakhouse was still the best choice for a juicy and tender Angus steak.

Athens, the Birthplace of Western Civilization - National Archaeological Museum

The National Archaeological Museum is the largest museum in Greece, which allows you to understand its golden era in a short time.

















Among all exhibits, the sculptures about Greek myths are the most attractive to me.

Venus, Cupid and Satyrs.



















Athena and Nike.






















The classic decoration of buildings.

















Best evidences of civilization - the use of gold and jade.


































In fact, many of the museums in the world houses some exhibits from the ancient Greece. It seems the collection of a museum is incomplete without these invaluable treasures.

Athens, the Birthplace of Western Civilization - The Westin Athens

If you wanna embrace the sea, the Westin Athens is certainly your choice. (Can't understand why the signage of a 5-star hotel can be in a mess like this)

















Good place to relax.


Ideal facilities for couples to appreciate the view together.

















Water activities at your choice.















Enjoy sunshine at the private beach.

















Or have a cold drink at the pool side.



















Spacious room with cozy bed for enjoying life.

















Outer look of the hotel rooms.
