WOW !!!, Anna, what a glorious time you had in NY…. The colours, the tastes, the overflow of it all must have sent you home inspired and awash with new ideas.
SOOOOOOO good to get out and about and I hope you feel refreshed in spite of the big heat it must have been. Lovely photos of you…..but hoping we shall see the ‘real you’ here before too long.

A fantastic culinary safari – it almost felt as though we were with you and could taste some of those yummy treats! As you say, a mind blowing experience of choices and experiences and it will be interesting to try the Londolozi variations!

I’m going to NYC next month with some foodie friends of mine from California. I’ve printed off your blog and will use it as my guide while I’m there!! Thanks a bunch!

Thank you Mary Beth!
Leave yourself a Sunday morning to do this Deli Safari, as Sunday seems to be the most vibrant day in Chinatown & Little Italy.
EATALY is also best late afternoon so you truly get the hustle and bustle vibe of this fabulous place!
