So, last week on my birthday I actually got a promotion!! YAH! But with that came a last minute trip back to NY for some innovation meetings with our teams there. So, Monday off I went with several other people from our Bentonville office to the BIG Apple!
We stayed at the Hilton Garden Inn right down from the Empire State Building, and I was on the 27th floor. This was my view...breath-taking!
We also experienced some new places to eat while there. We went to this place called the corner...however, don't let the picture deceive you...we ate underground. Yep, we had to give our "party" name at the top of these stairs to these 2 guys...then we were told to walk downstairs through the kitchen and you would arrive at your place. So, we actually walked through the kitchen and ended up at this quant little restaurant. It was so fun, I actually felt like I was meet the mob for a meeting...HA! This place can only be eaten at with a reservation, and only if you know the owner...you can't just find this number online, etc. Needless to say, we felt very special!
This was our appetizer...this was the best corn on the cob ever! It was smothered in parmesian cheese...YUMMO!
These are 2 of the other managers that I work with...Jennifer and Sarah, we had a great time.
Then last night we went to the place called Freeman's Alley, and it was amazing! But just like the name, it was at the end of an alley on some side road...again very weird, but great food!
Although, a quick trip it was a good one, and definitely learned a lot about my new role. And in case you were wondering, Chris did another awesome job with the kids! Their goal...survival, and they met that goal!
