David and I had a nice "date" night in the city two weekends ago, as our
babysitters my parents came to visit. We headed to a restaurant called "Alta" in Greenwich Village. Of course we waited until 2pm on Saturday to look for somewhere to eat, and therefore could not get reservations anywhere (anywhere decent at least;)). So, we decided to go early and hope we could get in without a reservation. Luckily, it worked and we were told the table could be ours until 7:45, since we got there at 6:00, it was plenty of time. We ate (and maybe I drank) too much!
Click here for the menu. Since it is tapas, we got to try many different things - bacon wrapped dates, scallop ceviche, lamb meatballs, shrimp and chorizo skewer and roasted pork belly confit. Of course we took food pictures, but let's be honest, they never do the food justice. Here are a few of us at dinner and our walk after dinner.
My parents of course loved staying home with Elizabeth!
David had to travel to Orlando for work, he left on Sunday and returned on Wednesday. My parents stayed with us until Tuesday. We did plenty of facetime with David while he was gone.
We went into the city on Saturday, the weather was gorgeous! I love NYC this time of year with all the Christmas decorations. We went to Bryant Park, then walked down to the Union Square Farmers Market, and then over to the West Village. We have discovered the bjorn is great for days into the city, David can carry Elizabeth all day in it, but when it's just me, I have to take the stroller, I can only handle carrying her in it for about an hour before my back starts hurting.
And, just a few more random pics!
