My Favorite Place In NYC!

I love modern art, so “Moma” is one of my favorite museums.
However I had never been to “Metropolitan”.
And I went there last month because I thought I should see a representative museum in NYC.

This museum has a lot of precious art of all over the world.
In fact, there are some Japan's art and antiques which I had never seen.
But, I wanted to see modern art and looked for it.

At last, I found it! It was in a roof garden.















The roof garden is surrounded with green of the central park and skyscrapers, so I think the modern art is displayed at the best location. That's terrific!!

Also, this place has a cafe, so you can unwind over with coffee and cocktail. Such an awesome place!

















The roof garden in “Metropolitan” is my favorite place now!

STOMP In NYC

Actually, I was busy last month, but I will be able to have free time this month.
Goody! I’m going to write a blog which I love as much as possible.
At first, it’s about NY where I went with my parents last month.


We watched “STOMP” on off Broadway.
















It seems this show was often featured on TV in Japan, so my mom was more familiar than me.
This show is just movement and doesn’t have lines.
So we were able to enjoy this show like native!!
















Specially, I was impressed with a Japanese woman.
She is an energetic actress and looks cool!
Also, she is one of Japanese people that experienced the American dream.
I proud of her as a Japanese woman!!

On the final day, it was rainy day in the morning, but all right!! We had a plan to go to a museum. It’s MOMA! !
























We had breakfast at the cafe"2" in the MOMA.








"It's a stylish cafe!"








I ordered a cheese panini.
It tastes good! I liked it!









At last, I start to see there. (^0^)/

















Le Corbusier is one of my favorite architect.

This is his works.







There was a lot of my line. I was excited!!



















MOMA became one of my favorite museum☆(^-^)



















Finally, we went to the Japanese restaurant Ise.
I haven’t eaten a traditional Japanese ramen since I have come to U.S.
So, I wanted to eat it!!!

















I ordered a niboshi ramen.

It was just a Japanese ramen!
We were all choked up…





While this vacation, we could feel a real Japan in NY!!

On the 2th day, we went shopping in Soho and 5th Avenue. There were some Japanese brand shops.














"S0ho"







“A BATHING APE” I want to new shoes, but there wasn’t my size. I’m unhappy. (;_;)







UNIQLO?!
There were lots of fancy people having a UNIQLO bag in Soho! I was surprise!!














"5th Avenue"













On 5th Avenue, I found out Abercrombie & Fitch!
It was crowded so much with many people.









Our favorite Japanese brand“UNDER COVER” appeared in display windows of Barneys New York!
We are glad!!




I found out ”GIORGIO FEDON” of gift that I got from Nao in 5th Avenue! It’s fancy!!
















At the night, I watched a musical Chicago!


















"In the theater "





That’s really something such as exciting dance, beautiful women and cool guy, a little funny story. Also, we were able to see the story because we have watched it on movie. It was amazing!!












On my way to the hotel, the Empire state Building was very beautiful!!!

I lave NY! ~Day1~

Last weekend, my husband and I spent three days in NYC. This city is one of my favorite places because there are many entertainments such as musical, jazz, and dance. Also, this city has a lot of arts and beautiful sights. That’s exciting, fashionable, and amazing!!! So, before I arrived there, I was concerned about this city because I have ever been in there 6 years ago before 911. But this city was still vibrant!!By the way, this time my theme is the Japanese culture in NYC. And I found various things. (^^)







First, this is Manhattan from Rockefeller Center.




















"Soaring skyscrapers"










Then we were shopping in Soho.
In the evening, I had dinner at Japanese style pub ”Kenka” in East Village, which was recommended by his fellow.

































The pub was crowded with people of different countries.












There was many kinds of sake. That’s great!
Someone who isn’t the Japanese ordered a bottle of sake!
It was interesting!!



















All right!! We wanted Japanese food!
We felt as if we were in Japan...



We made a Japanese traditional candy ”Watagashi”by ourselves and ate it free of charge.
It was fun♪









After dinner, we went to a café.
We had a comfortable time on the day!!
