La Soirée @ the Union Square Theatre - Best Party in NYC

Keep the children at home! While incredibly funny, La Soirée is a naughty show that straddles the line between Burlesque and Circus.

Allan surprised me with tickets so we caught the Friday 10 PM showing in Union Square and had a blast. I wasn't sure what to expect at first, but I ended ooh-ing, ahhh-ing and laughing the entire show. From juggling to hula hooping, it has a circus like aspect to it, but each act is full of charisma and humor making the show more dynamic than the usual circus-like freak show spectacle. The burlesque aspect shines through via the costumes and more so when two english gentlemen performers strip down to their underwear after their acrobatic set. The show is also interactive, where some acts were fulfilled with the help of audience members even if audience participation meant being drenched with water by the sexy half naked man performing his acrobatic set in a tub.The hardest thing about capturing this experience for you all, is that they wouldn't allow photos. Luckily, La Soirée has their own instagram so I am going to use their social media platforms to share my experience with you! I am not going to describe each pictures and ruin each act, but you all get the gist. Go see the show! Average show runs around $96.95 for a general seat ticket. General seating is first come first serve, so be early for prime seating. Posh table seating give you and your partner a private table seating and although they are behind general seating, the height is elevated so the view is still pretty great and the tickets are around $137.95. It's a great date spot so plan your next with La Soirée!

ABC Kitchen - Easy as 123

Remember my handsome, fabulous, and super smart friend Jon? Well Mr. Smarty pants and I went on a little dinner date to ABC Kitchen located on east 18th street between Broadway, and South Park Avenue in New York City. This restaurant is one of roughly over 6,000 restaurants opened around the world by world renown French chef, Jean-Georges Vongerichten, who resides in NYC. This delightful gem is a magnet for the "chic crowd of fashionable movers and shakers" like Patrick Demarchelier and Hugh Jackman.

So good, we'll eat off their carpet

ABC kitchen prides themselves on being an "aggressively green" Restaurant similar to the Blue Hill Restaurant, who get's all their ingredients from their own organic farms.

"Everything here is: Fair trade! Globally artistic! Reclaimed and recycled! Soy-based! Post-consumer fiber!...The notion of the place is haute organic and Hamptons sustainable. The restaurant is airy and open and relaxed the way the second homes of the wealthy often are, with LED-style lighting over warm floors. Ingredients for the cooking, as a position paper on the back of the chic cardboard menu declares, are “consciously sourced.” The breadbaskets were “handcrafted by the indigenous Mapuche people of Patagonia.” On ABC Kitchen-NY Times
