I'm always in NYC every month, but this month was special because of Fashion Week. I was invited to do makeup for Chris Benz and Michael Kors. It was an amazing experience, I met new friends and amazing people, learned new techniques and of course, I'll def revisit this event. Thank you Lancome for the opportunity. Sorry for the low quality camera, I know it's not up to par to my usual camera, but I needed something more portable =)
I also wanted to show you my top 3 favorite spots to eat in NYC. Quick dining that's delicious and of course, inexpensive.
Music is from Late Night Alumni
Beck Jean William is the singer

FOOD
I always love to find new places to eat, so of course, I've tried just about as many resturants as I possibly good. I'll include more to my list, but I wanted to keep it simple.
ALL IN Manhattan
Ray's - The best pizza you'll ever had. I've had it all, and Ray's is the best. Remember, there is ONLY ONE Ray's. The rest are fake. Example - Original Rays, Famous Rays, etc. The only REAL Ray's is located on
27 Prince St, New York, NY 10012
Order the Cheese pizza. Plain...that is all you need.
Cafe Habana - The best grilled corn. Mexican style. Cheese, butter with spice. It's amazing, people from all over the world come here to taste the amazing corn. You'll be a cornhead like me. They're two locations, but I go to this one more often. If you go to the one on Prince St. ask for Monica. She's the one who called me a cornhead, she's really cool and will make you feel like you're at home! Oh and for all the fellers, the girls who work here are BEAUTIFUL. Model looking :)

Order the steak too, it's yummy!
Joe Shanghai - For the BEST Soup dumplings. Now, I get a lot of people telling me it's overrated, and they're better soup dumplings. If so, let me know which one so I can visit next time. But for the time being, Joe Shanghai is my king for the best soup dumplings. They have an amazing scallion pancake. Order the pork and crabmeat soup dumpings, if you can't eat shell fish, opt for the pork one instead.
