Live from NYC, it's Saturday Night!!!!!

After taking a rest back at the Hilton, we had planned on going to Angelo's in Little Italy. It's an Italian restaurant that had been recommded to us. We actually were not hungry still because we had eaten a later lunch AND had dessert. However, I wanted to still go check Angelo's out, so we did. We shared something and we really enjoyed the real Italian atmosphere. It was obviously a place that locals dine, and most of them really Italian. We loved listening to the accents and the conversations around us. It was very entertaining.
After dinner, we headed to the Tanuki Tavern where my childhood friend, Manu, was working. We hung out there at the Sushi bar while he worked, and we even tried a few bites of real Sushi. (We were very brave!) I liked one and didn't like the other. The one I liked was Spicey Tuna on Krispy Rice or something like that.

I left a message on my childhood friend, Shannon's, voicemail who also lives in NY and is an attorney. I told her we were gonna be out, but I really didn't expect to hear back from her, because it was already kind of late in the evening. When Manu got off worked, we walked to a bar a few blocks from the hotel he worked at. Shannon called back and did meet us out! We had so much fun catching up and hanging out.

So much fun, that we didn't get in the cab to go back to the hotel until 3:30 a.m.!!! I had no idea it was so late. Thank you to my wonderful husband Brian for a GREAT trip to NYC!! It was a fun surprise and I really enjoyed it.
