Met runners @nycmarathon from Mexico, Ghana, Argentina, Israel, Ireland, England, Australia, New Zealand, Netherlands & Nebraska. Some said #NYCMarathon is special, their favorite, best in the world. Others complained weather was too warm, Central Park too hilly #NYC

Favorite plant-based food is found at Le Botaniste on Columbus Ave. Originally from Belgium, with several locations in #NYC, the restaurant is vegan, organic & affordable. Their carrot soup is outstanding!

Trendy, romantic, big party atmosphere up on the roof. These are last two days to experience magic @metmuseum rooftop before it closes for five years. Lines are long but reward is otherworldly.

Every October 9, a crowd gathers @CentralParkNYC’s Strawberry Fields to dance, sing & celebrate John Lennon’s birthday. One addition this year: a vibrating Tibetan foot bowl placed on the Imagine circle to help people feel grounded #JohnLennon would have been 85 years old

The passing of Saul Zabar is an enormous loss for New Yorkers and all who appreciate & frequent Zabar’s. Excellent obituary by @ClydeHaberman
nytimes.com
He led his parents’ appetizing store, Zabar’s, for more than 70 years, turning it into an institution synonymous with New York.

Going to Zabar’s is about more than food shopping, though it’s especially bustling & inviting on holidays. Paid my respects after hearing owner Saul Zabar died today at 97 years old.

Upper West Siders still sweet on froyo and very sad to see Pinkberry close their doors on Monday.

Zak Ove’s Mothership Connection towers over the #MeatpackingDistrict — still an arty, fashionable, teeming NYC neighborhood (tho no restaurant has ever replicated the cool crowd & comfort food of Florent).
