Part II: New York treat

On my last day in the city, I introduced my sister Natalie, who lives in Queens, to The Chocolate Room in Park Slope, where we shared a chocolate brownie sundae with fresh mint ice cream and had the best chocolate chip cookies ever. I also had a root beer float. Then two hours later met designer Ivy Higa and Joey Caldarone for dinner at Cafeteria.

Park Slope visit

Visit to Park Slope started with a trek through Prospect Park, one place to get a tan on a week day. A squirrel looked like a mix of red and gray species. Afterward, there were any number of small cafes for lunch. We ate at Alchemy, then stopped for housemade ice cream sandwiches at The Chocolate Room. The window at Moutarde showed what eclairs are supposed to look like. Then, returning to the city, spotted what I believe is a peregrine falcon above Washington Square Park.
