Eataly

During my last week of break at home, I went on a little adventure of my own. I live about 15 minutes from New York City (even that's a bit of a stretch) but I never visited the city as often as you would expect. I loved visiting it for all its beauties in the lookout of a tourist but never really took the time to get to know the true city. I spent a day in the city with some of my friends to just enjoy our time away from school and the struggles that are part of it. After a day of walking around aimlessly, my friend and I walked into a lovely little place called Eataly. Owned by the world famous chef, Mario Batali this beautiful location on 5th Ave, represents everything that is Italian cooking, delicacies and tradition. Although I was unable to eat anything due to a time constraint, the smells and smiles on people’s faces told me that this place was one in a million. 

Here are some amateur iPhone pictures to show you what the place looks like:

 

  There are multiple little sections dedicated to different types of foods including wine and cheese, seafood, breads, meat, pasta and desserts. There are an enormous amount of tables in each section so you can sit down or take your plate around and get a little taste of everything. I would think of it as many mini-restaurants in one giant restaurant! If you ever get a chance in NYC, make sure to check this place out!
