  • NYC’s Best Pastrami Sandwich

    Since I’m traveling this week (still in Munich), today’s Daily Escape is a stalwart favorite right in my own backyard — Katz’s Deli. Yes, it’s full of tourists, and yes, it’s not cheap, but it still has one of the best Pastrami sandwiches in the city. The food is consistent and delicious, and the staff can be snarky (but it’s all part of the charm). The Savvy Insider Tip is to go to Katz’s for breakfast to avoid the crowds, but you’ll still have access to the complete menu.

    As our friends over at the Gothamist recently said, “Don’t go on the weekend, and don’t tell the man behind the counter, ‘I’ll have what she’s having,’ for the love of God.”

  • Escaping in NYC

    This weekend I escaped in New York City, my home. It was great. I wandered down to the new World Trade Center and got a private tour of the new Condé Nast corporate offices on the 40th floor. After we were done, we popped up to the open space of the 60th floor and had these amazing views of the entire island of Manhattan, the new Oculus transportation hub, and a VIP office of our favorite magazine editor (scroll down to see if you can figure it out).

    The learning for me here is that sometimes an escape is right in our own backyard. And I ❤️ NY.
