Your Ultimate Winter Hitlist

Aka 12 places I really should have gate kept oops

Even though I keep complaining about how cold it is, I’m enjoying January in New York enough that I canceled my trip to San Francisco. i’ve been busy exploring the city, especially since my husband is not in town and here is my definitive list of the places you absolutely must go this winter.

Quarters is genius. It’s a lighting store disguised as an apartment which has the chicest little coffee shop in the back (including sabre cutlery!) You need a reservation and you need to get the croissant with jam.

The only problem quarters is that there is no matcha. But all you need to do is walk 10 minutes North to Sorate for the most authentic matcha in the city. It is a four seater café where you have four different grades of Matcha to choose from - that’s how you know this is NOT your average Blank Street.

If you need some alone time, go to Gem home for the most Copenhagen cosy vibes. You're welcomed with whipped butter, chanterelle buns and the most perfect egg plate. Leave with a loaf!

When you've had enough of bopping around the stores and Soho, the best thing you can do is go to the Crosby Street Hotel for afternoon tea. You absolutely cannot forget to get the scones. It feels like a posh uptown hotel, without needing you to take the 6.
