What to do and see in Midtown East, New York (NY): The Best Gift & Specialty Shops

October 17, 2021 Augustus Redeker

Conquering New York in one visit is impossible. Instead, hit the must-sees – the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art – and then explore off the beaten path with visits to The Cloisters or one of the city’s libraries. Indulge in the bohemian shops of the West Village or the fine dining of the Upper West Side. The bustling marketplace inside of Grand Central Station gives you a literal taste of the best the city has to offer.

Badler’s is where I buy all my wife’s jewelry. I shop online and their online site is very good. The selection, prices, and customer service cannot be beat. I highly recommend.

Hotel Chocolat

What we believe in: Originality - We’re constantly striving to be fresh, creative and innovative, and always one surprising step ahead. Authenticity - Chocolate starts at the roots of the cacao tree. So we got stuck in. Ethics - You work too hard for bad chocolate. They work too hard for cheap cocoa. We’ve been raising the bar for cocoa-growing since 2002.
