If you want to feel the city as your own, Christopher's home is the best location to understand the real life of a new yorker, getting up viewing an incredible skyline, living in a great neighbourhood two steps from the Empire State, Central Station or Flatiron Building.
We loved so much the experience that we couldn't stop walking to enjoy each moment. Around Chris's home we found the best sushi restaurant (Umi sushi), but so did trying Brother Jimmi's BBQ (real american food), Penelope (Mediterranean food), Vezzo (italian food) and Chippotle (mexican food). If you want to find some interesting places you will find them very close from the apartment but if you want to find other places by your own prepare to enjoy. We loved to walk across Park Avenue and Lexington St and find great things but if you like to go shopping, you will love to get the Fifth Avenue close to Chris's.
This was our second time in NY but our sensation now is that we realy found the experience that we were looking for. We felt the city as we expected. Thank you Chris for the opportunity of being in your home, for hosts us so kindly and make possible for us to have the greatest christmas ever lived. We hope to repeat very soon.
