What to eat in NYC?

My ipad won’t let me post because the hotel server is worried I might be pretending to be me. Really? Why would anyone be pretending to be me?

So writing a post on my phone is slow and it is almost 100 degrees here so I will make this short.

Carter and I are in the city for a little shopping and a concert of some kid I’ve never heard of. Finding restaurant compromises I think I can find something healthy and light and something a 13 year old wants is no easy feat. Especially when it is so hot I can’t convince her to walk more than 8 blocks.

So after finding some joy at century 21 Carter and I had some real Chinese in China town. I was thankful for green beans as the mainstay of my meal but I am sure the spicy garlic sauce they were bathed in had way more calories than I needed. How do I know? They were yummy delicious, the way only some kind of fat will do.

For dinner I won out with a trip to the bar at the modern. Before those of you who know I have up drinking 28 years ago fall off your bar stool, the Modern serves great food in the bar and you don’t have to have four courses.

When I looked at the menu I was in heaven. Food skinny, rich NewYork women would not just push around their plates. I had the upside down tuna tartare and an arugula and watercress salad.

The tuna, though good, was not as good as mine but very skinny because they put it on cucumber instead of avocado. The salad was delish. Mostly because it was made up of hundreds of tiny chopped vegetables that I did not have to cut up.

I’ll post the pictures as soon as this hotel realizes no one is trying to overtake this blog or I get back to NC, which ever comes first
