SoHo on a Friday Night

Leticia, Megan and I met for dinner at La Esquina on Friday night.  I love this place and love introducing it to people who haven't been before!!  Their reservation process is a pain, but I guess I think it's worth it! Such a cool space, plus good food.  We tried the Queso Fundido and I'd never had it there and it was seriously one of the best things I have ever tasted - anywhere.  I can't wait for the next reason to go back here!

Dinner was super early (because they'll only give me 6pm or 11:30pm reservations - every single time I call), so we were done by 7:30.  The shops in SoHo were still open, so we went in a couple.  We stopped in Mitchell Gold furniture store, which I've heard about and didn't think I'd like (I thought it would be way to contemporary/modern), but I did like it quite a bit!  I'm definitely not in the market for furniture, but it's still fun to look!

Next, we went to C Wonder.  Do you know this store?!  It was amazing.  Apparently it's only in New York and New Jersey right now.  It was started by Tory Burch's ex-husband.  It is a huge store and they have everything - clothes, accessories and home goods.  I liked the home decor and gifty items a lot.  Many things were marked down and some of the prices were shockingly low.  Such a fun new store to remember!

Finally, we went to the new Georgetown Cupcake.  I'm so glad Leticia knew this had opened here.  Beth & I went to Georgetown Cupcake when we were in DC a few years ago.  The new store here is super cute and the cupcakes are adorable too!  The cupcakes tasted pretty good - the icing was delicious, cake was a bit dry.
