Manhattan is best for non-particular meanderings; no plans are necessary. I just walked and explored the city, she reveals exactly what I need at just the right moments. Like my quest for a ‘good’ cup-o-coffee, not what’s being served here at every corner and calling it coffee, but an actual great cup of coffee. Through my meanderings, I stumbled across ‘Stumptown Cafe‘. It’s the first in New York city and is the brainchild of a completely obsessive coffee addict spouting that the bean varietals as just as important as the grapes used for wine.

Stumptown coffee is Superb! It takes me back to my roots in Melbourne. I feel like I’m now ready for anything New York City wants me to explore. There is nothing better for one’s spirits than a Superb cup of coffee! Nothing! Not even alcohol, nothing. With my latte in hand, I let a new days adventure begin. I traveled through some previously ignored boutiques, boutiques busting with originality! See how a good cup of coffee leads to an eye opening experience? I found one boutique where people watching was just as quirky as the clothes price-tags were.

My next day, was just as random as all the previous days, except for a quick stop by Stumptown. Fortunately, the top hotel I booked on-line from this site: http://www.topnewyorkcityhotels.com, to stay at during my trip wasn’t too far away from Stumptown, which is located on 29th and Broadway. It was Sunday and Sunday led me on a wild cheese-burger and fries chase through the Lower East Side. A place named ‘Pianos’ was spotted, so I went inside. I found it to be somewhat of a California atmosphere of laid-backness-beach-house type of bar. I sat up at the bar and ordered a cheese-burger with fries. Boy!  Saying that was the best burger I’ve ever had is an understatement!

One of the best parts of being plan-free, is the truly unexpected happens, like as I was taking photos of myself via Iphone, Sarah Jessica Parker passed by me laughing! I quickly turned the camera phone around and managed to get a shot of her as she stepped into a taxi! So, next time you’re in New York City, don’t plan anything and be random and free. You’ll get to see a part of New York that isn’t on any tour package.
