SHAKE SHACK BURGER- TIMES SQUARE NYC

Hands down to the best burger and fries I've ever had. I can't believe I had room for the frozen custard for dessert but it was too good not to finish. I probably wouldn't have braved the long line left to my own devices but I was with some locals who urged us to tough it out as the line moved faster than I thought and it was WELL WORTH the wait.

I ordered the Shack Stack burger, fries, and vanilla shake. My total came up to around $15. This was an absolutely delicious meal! The burger meat was juicy, the fries were nice and crispy, and the shake tasted like melted white chocolate Hershey's kisses! Absolutely delicious! Even their mustard from the dispensable machines had a bit of a kick to it!

So,  don't let how busy it is deter you. I'm sure this location, being so close to Times Square, is perpetually busy.... but DO NOT run away if you see the line curled around the outside of the building...jump in line...it moves fast!

NEW YORK CITY: The City That Never Sleeps

In less than a year Im back again in the United states and this time Im conquering the "BiG APPLE"; "the city that never sleeps".... NEW YORK CITY.

the famous Brooklyn bridge

 Arrived JFK International Airport  early morning after my 12 hours flight from Narita. Passing the airport immigration was a breeze since i have a good record in this country for the past 3-4 yrs of going back and forth in this side of the globe.

After passing all the airport security, im off to the city and Holiday Inn at 36th street  which is roughly 30 minutes from JFK. 

Am I the only one to think that NYC is overrated? Please don't get me wrong, I think that it is a great city with lots to see and very friendly and helpful people, but the first few hours while in the taxi passing all the rated streets really didn't blow me away.. Maybe it is the fact that I live in a pretty unbelievable city myself without the crazy motorist and dumps on those side streets.

But, what New York does have is an amazing frenetic energy and vitality. The other thing that makes NYC truly special is its diversity. In so much of America, this diversity is frowned upon. In NYC it is reveled in.
