If you used to follow me on my old blogs, you'd know that I pretty much go to New York City at least 8-10 times a year. It's like an addiction that I can't tame. NYC is amazing for everything (obviously), but I looooveee traveling for delicious food and taking a 4-5 hr drive up there each time is worth every single ass-painful car ride! I usually call my trips "Fat Trips" because that's what it really is for--getting fat. My guilty conscience usually nags at me every time, but my belly loves the attention, lol.
Be warned. Lots of food approaching you... If you are hungry, I suggest you visit my blog another time. :P

Road trip guilty pleasures--- Iced Caramel Macchiato and anything oily/salty/fried. YUM.
This welcoming sight <3
Love Chatime's Red Bean Milk Tea... I didn't know this had a hot version which was so ridonkously yummy.
Upon arriving, my group of friends and I decided to get dinner at a Japanese restaurant called Zutto to celebrate John's birthday surprise.
Trips to NYC wouldn't be perfect unless Soup Dumplings are involved. Of course Joe's Shanghai was a must (should I say, more like a NEED) for our first stop the morning after.
If you love mangos then holy crap, I have found you mango heaven: Mango Mango Dessert. Courtesy of John and Lize for introducing me to this place. This dessert shop is solely dedicated to mango desserts/snacks. Anything you can think up of as a dessert, this shop will probably have had it mango-fied on the menu already for you.
The drink in these pictures is called Mango Milk Tea. Probably one of the most interesting milk teas I've ever had... There were tiny bits of mango chunks floating inside and this with the creamy taste of the milk was a PERFECT combination.
And finally...
Brian if you are reading this, please take note that I would like a Chanel birthday cake next year. ^_^
