On Monday morning it was pouring rain, but luckily this was the only rainy day of the whole trip. We had ticket reservations for the Late Show with Jimmy Fallon so we decided to make a day of it at NBC and get the full tour. It was pretty awesome to see where SNL is filmed and where Brian Williams apparently gives the news with no pants (old rumor, haha). We had a few hours to kill between the tour and the Jimmy Fallon taping so we shopped around the area and found a LEGO store! Of course we had to go in, the Webb family is drawn to LEGO like magnets. Surprisingly, we didn't buy anything, but it was definitely tempting. But overall, Rockefeller plaza is a pretty sweet place.
Next we went to lunch at a fancy schmancy restaurant called Pasta Lover's Traitorria. Pasta=favorite food and thus I loved this restaurant. Unfortunately, it felt so fancy, that I didn't really think taking a picture of my delicious lunch would be appropriate, but trust me-it was amazing. Then we went back for the taping of Jimmy Fallon. Obviously, we couldn't take pics, but we had some pretty cool celebrity guests to watch. #1 was Topher Grace (very cute, btw-That 70s Show, and a new movie: Take Me Home Tonight and #2 Jim Gaffigan (Hilarious! and in a play on broadway "That Championship Season"--
Then there was a performance by Glasser...they were interesting, but it would take awhile for me to get used to them. Just check out their costumes--
And here's a vid of the song they performed:
After the taping we went to Eataly (trip numero dos) for dinner at the vegetarian place. It was delish! Check out the salad I had--
The wine was pretty amazing too-gave a little vision of how Italy will be this summer :-) Afterwards we took a pitstop at Grand Central Station to scope it out a little bit for the shopping before heading back to the apartment. Another pretty great day in the city!
Awe you saw a My Boys boy! :)
