NYC: Last Days in NYC - Hamptons, Scavenger Hunt, and Legends Dugout Seats at a Yankees Game, and Goodbye Dinners

Today is my last day in NYC!

I am ending work today and also getting on a plane to Spain and Italy for vacation. After that, I'll be back in New York to pick up some things (and for a very important person's birthday) before moving to Los Angeles.

Things have been quite crazy lately -- moving out of my apt, setting up temporary housing with a very good friend who let me use her room, meeting up with friends for last dinners/drinks and also wrapping things up for work.

That said, I don't have much time to blog about it all! But here are some photos though of what we've been up to =)

Mini Hamptons Getaway

The weather didn't quite cooperate!

It was freezing (for summer) and started to rain too!

We ordered WAY too much food at dinner (this pizza + 3 HUGE pastas) b/c the prices were so cheap we thought they must have been small! We are too used to Manhattan prices / portions!

Janice's 25th Birthday Scavenger Hunt

For Janice's birthday, she planned a scavenger hunt in Central Park with Watson's Adventures. Fun times!!! Her team won of course... my team came in 3rd =) Out of 3 teams =P

Last Minute Tickets to Yankees Game in Legends Dugout Suites

This was the most amazing baseball game ever -- all you can eat cruise style buffet, free foods at the stands, our own entrance, etc. So this is how the rich watch baseball =P All thanks to Fiona's boss for last minute tickets!

Thanks Fiona for getting us the tickets!

No zoom required =)

It was like a cruise ship buffet!

Unlimited wall of candy!

 No zoom required =P Fiona got a ball too!

Thanks Fiona!

Date Night w/ Janice at Taureau

Janice and I went to Taureau in the East Village and had a fondue meal for the first time! It was a last minute thing and we didn't even know it was fondue until right before (thought it was just French food haha). The owners are the same as La Sirene. It was BYOB so we called a wine shop they recommended who delivered wine to our table =) Highly recommended!

Then we went out all night and ended up leaving Korea Town as the sun was rising!

SideBAR w/ Betsey Johnson

My friend Phyllis invited me to a Betsey Johnson work event and I met Betsey herself! Afterwards, we went to Korea Town with a Ktown vet who took us to Pocha 32 for some soldier food (budaechijae).

 She is one wild lady!

Dinner at Mono+Mono and Cienfuegos

Lastly, last night I had a little dinner w/ some friends before I flew out, eating my favorite food -- Korean fried chicken! Also dropped by an East Village bar called Cienfuegos, which my coworker Gregor described as "walking into Cuba". None of us have ever been, but it sure did feel like it!

 Loved the details

We got little tea cups to share our rum punch bowl!

That's it for now! Stay posted for my pics from Europe =)
