7 Restaurants You Must Try While In NYC
Marisa Garten

New York is known for its amazing food, let's just all admit it. Italian food in Little Italy. Bagels on Long Island. The best ice cream and Italian ices known to mankind all reside in this very place. Here's a look at all the places you better not miss in the Big Apple:

1. Milk Bar

This place is known all over; D.C., NYC, Las Vegas. Wherever you are, this place is a staple to stop at. They have their legendary compost cookies and cereal milk frozen yogurt that will stop anyone in their tracks.

2. Katz's Deli

A staple in NYC is the deli. But nothing quite tops it like Katz's Deli. Probably the most infamous deli in the city, this place certainly does not disappoint. Make sure to try one of their legendary Jewish deli classics.

3. The Spotted Pig

Honestly, might have the best hamburgers I've ever had. There may be some controversy surrounding that, but for a good burger, I would recommend Spotted Pig in an instant.

4. The Butcher's Daughter

The Butcher's Daughter is a plant-based juice bar with morning through evening menus. They pride themselves on having a fresh, organic produce-based food lineup, but even if you aren't into all of that, this cafe is still a spot for some amazing food. The atmosphere tops it all off, as it is an extremely calming and relaxing space with light colors and loads of green plants flowing everywhere. Even for the experience, The Butcher's Daughter is an essential stop.

5. SaraBeth's

This place is on the more expensive side, but a luxury breakfast wouldn't be done right without Sarabeth's. This restaurant is located right around the corner from the legendary Plaza Hotel and right across from Central Park, which makes it a perfect stop on a Big Apple tour. This place is perfect for a trendy breakfast with amazing food.

6. Baked by Melissa

An infamous company, Baked by Melissa is known for their miniature, bite-sized cupcakes that you can only really get in the Tri-State area. With 14 locations all over Manhatten, this cupcake shop really made a name for themselves, and their cupcakes surely don't disappoint. Some locations even have delivery-style takeout windows, with people lined up all around the block just to get some cupcakes. Their most famous is the rainbow cupcake, so if you stop there, I'd order a box of those. Or maybe order one of each, and let me know how they are.

7. Da Nico Ristorante

For a classic Italian restaurant, Da Nico is certainly a staple on any NYC trip. I had discovered this restaurant years ago when I ate there for a relative's birthday dinner, and I instantly fell in love. There's nothing fancy; the food is just simply delicious. Nestled in Little Italy, if not for the food, the atmosphere can do it alone. So many bakeries, Italian carts rolling around the streets and beautiful lights hung up, Little Italy is definitely a place to stop, and if anything, at least stop in and grab their freshly made zeppoles. They'll probably give you some for free.

Hopefully, these 7 recommendations gave you a little insight into the amazing food and atmospheres that New York City has to offer. Next time you're visiting, make sure to try out one of these places, I promise they will never disappoint.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
