MOMA and Le Pavillon

With a flight back to Europe at 22:00, we had a last full day at New York.

one of the restaurant suggestions of the St. Regis we liked was Le Pavillon at 1 Vanderbilt, however as we didn’t have any more nights to have dinner, we decided to have lunch there before leaving the city.

With such a lunch planned, we skipped breakfast at the hotel and spend the morning at the MOMA.
not being the biggest museum persons, it was still a pleasant way to spend a couple of hours.









From the MOMA we walked to 1 Vanderbilt, which was a very new restaurant at the time.
the interior is sitting in a garden with an incredible view of the Chrysler building.

We took the lunch tasting menu (at dinner the tasting menu is more elaborate, which was a pleasant surprise.












it is not a surprise that this restaurant has since won one Michelin star, as this was far superior to Marea.

After lunch we walked of the calories by going to Cosme to settle our bill (see previous story).

It being a great spring day, we wanted to sit in the sun, so headed back to Central Park to Tavern on the green for some drinks, before heading back to the St. Regis.








Having checked out in the morning, we were offered to use the dressing room and shower in the gym, before taking an Uber black back to EWR.
