My spouse and I spent a birthday
weekend in NYC in mid-August 2019. We stayed at the Hilton Times Square, our second visit. We ate a casual tapas lunch
at Ortzi by Jose Garces at the LUMA Hotel before (finally!) seeing Hamilton at the Richard
Rodgers Theatre. (We had bought the tickets over 9 months before; similar to
the wait time to have a baby!) We loved the show, and followed it by an elegant
dinner at Charlie Palmer’s Aureole. The next day, we met up with some family
members for brunch at Il Punto (instead of our original choice of Robert, which
logistically didn’t make sense). We capped off the weekend with tickets to a
matinee showing of Beautiful: The Carole King Musical at the Stephen Sondheim Theatre. We loved our weekend in
the city!
