Traveling to NYC and looking for tips?

Don't worry: Luiza Mallmann just got back from there, and prepared the perfect guide!

Tips for traveling (which I do, right 😂)

- A small bag to carry your essentials and not have to look for them in your suitcase or giant bag/backpack in the middle of your trip
- A giant bag to carry everything and avoid excess luggage 😅
- A face mask for the end of the flight, and leave with flawless skin
- Take a thousand Ryzí bags (hehe)
- And if you arrive very early and there is no check-in available, take your clothes in your hand luggage to change and get ready at the hotel heheh

A perfect first day in NY

- Go to the New Museum and also do some research in Soho (but don't get run over 👀);
- I loved La Cabra café, always crowded (heheh);
- I enjoyed having lunch at Rafs, to see all the fashionable people!
- Lastly, I love taking a walk around Chinatown to find the best candies and sweets.

NYC RESTAURANTS? YESSSS
Tips from some of our current favorites:

- Sartiano's: Italian inside The Mercer to see and be seen by the fashion crowd;
- Checchis: one we love for new American food and an Art Deco vibe;
- Raf's: for lunch with the fashion crew in the middle of Soho;
- Bangkok Super Club: a recently opened restaurant, which was our favorite on the trip;
- Gemma: for breakfast at The Bowery hotel;
- Dominique Ansel Bakery: for the best sweets and hot chocolate;
- Sadelles: for an incredible breakfast;
- Estela: a relaxed Michelin 💜.

Exhibitions:

If there's one thing NY knows how to do, it's exhibitions :

- MOMA: Fontaine Blue by Picasso is on and the collection is always on point ;
- The new museum: always with controversial art ;
- Mercer Labs: a technology museum with experiences that made it my favorite museum on the trip;
- The Jewish museum: with the Chloé exhibition;
- The Met: and the women dressing women exhibition with an archive of old fashion collections to die for.
