foodie break: boston’s BOND // @BONDBoston1
How can it be that our #LTeastcoast tour was over a month ago? Alals, now all we can do is reminisce about our weeklong summer reunion in the good ole U-S-of-A. Naturally, the one thing we can’t stop thinking about: all of the delicious meals we ate along the way. Among our favorites was a night of wining and dining at Boston’s BOND (NOW CLOSED) on our first night out in Beantown. Located in The Langham hotel, formerly the Federal Reserve Bank, BOND was the perfect introduction to historic Boston. Converted from the bank into a luxury hotel property in…

#LTeastcoast: a new new york
There were many reasons #LTeastcoast was a big deal for us. It was the first time we were reuniting since March, and the first time we were heading up to Boston. But weirdest of all: this was the first time in a long, long time we were in New York as non-residents. It was a new New York experience, that’s for sure. For the past few years, one or both of us have lived in Manhattan, and as annoying as it may sound… New York is just different when you live there. As a resident, you’re oddly protective of a…

city dwellers // philadelphia’s center city
We may have grown up outside of Philadelphia, but that doesn’t make us experts on the City of Brotherly Love. Enter: the perfect excuse to spend some time together in Philadelphia’s Center City. When we kicked off our weeklong tour of the patriotic east coast, we knew we wanted to spend some time re-exploring Philly, especially now that the wino will soon be calling it home. Like any city, Philadelphia is chock-full of fun neighborhoods, each with it’s own distinct vibe. Because we only had two short days, we chose to stick to Center City. This was mostly for convenience,…

bonne bastille & a very happy #LTeastcoast!
WELL! Bonne Bastille! Wouldn’t you know that despite living in France for the past 11 months, the romantic has somehow managed to NOT be in the country on their most important holiday of the year? Oui, c’est Bastille Day. And oui, oui, we are not en France. But, it’s ok! It really is. It’s more than ok actually, because what this means is that instead of being apart, we are TOGETHER! And because we love any excuse to celebrate, we’ll obviously still make time to sip our champagne and toast to French Nationals. And all while reflecting on the amazing…

sneak peek: #LTeastcoast & the big apple
It’s hard to believe, but we’re already checked two cities off our #LTeastcoast list. And in case you missed us, that would be official name for our grand tour of the east coast. Today, we say goodbye to the Big Apple and head north to Beantown. How have we been spending our time so far? Eating and drinking, of course! Last night, the wino spent happy hour at Gallow Green in Chelsea and dinner at Toro, while the romantic took a stroll through Central Park and met friends uptown for dinner at Busters NYC (now closed). While we’ve spent the majority of…
