Cupcakes tastes like violence.

This past weekend, Jasmine and I went to the city. It was a gorgeous day outside, no rain, nice and warm mm. Sharon was supposed to come with us, but she was sick. So previous times when LG goes to the city, we always go for dinner at night. However, this time we wanted to change things up a little and go for brunch and go shopping. We spent a good, productive two hours planning our city date. We researched places to eat by looking at rankings, reviews, etc. Hahah we are soo good at this, and the best part is that we enjoy it! :) I wanted to eat pankcakes, waffles, and french toasts. I love pankcakes! These are places we narrowed down our choices to: Good Enough To Eat, Clinton St. Baking Company, Kitchenette, and some others. We decided to go to Good Enough to Eat. They are ranked #3 on the list of best pancakes in NYC. When Jas and I got there in the morning between about 10 and 11, there was a line waiting to get inside. The interior was pretty cute and the pancakes were delicious~

- Waiting in line outside..
- Peter Paul Pancakes: with Belgium chocolate and coconut, topped with toasted coconut (very yummy)

- Banana Walnut Pancakes: Three four-grain pancakes with walnuts and sliced banana

After breakfast, we went to Soho and shopped shopped and shopped until 4 in the afternoon. And I haven't gone shopping for quite a while and I ended up spending waaaaaaaay much more money than I had intended to. The final cost was a bit crazy. Let's just say I'm not going to buy anything for a while now. Hahah I just can't. Our arms were in pain. Seriously, the next two days or so after Saturday, my arms were aching haha.. For dinner, we headed towards Times Square to eat at Sapporo, a Japanese Noodle restaurant. We ordered miso ramen and chicken cutlet. It was good.

We never go wrong with our restaurant and food choices ;) I just love the city. When I graduate, I definitely want to live in the city and take full advantage of living in one of the greatest cities in the U.S. by going to restaurants, cafes, shows, concerts, bars, museums, exhibits, shopping, etcetc. It'd be so perfect.
So, tomorrow's new years eve. I can't believe this years already over. It feels like just yesterday I was at a New Year Party celebrating 2008. I'm going to save a New Year blog for another post in a couple days :)
