Class in a candy store.

April 20th, 2010

Last week in my writing class, my teacher was telling us about some candy store downtown. When we asked if we could go, she said that yeah we’d take a field trip there next week.

I feel like most of us (myself included) didn’t think she was serious. Before class today, we started scheming of ways to remind her that she promised us a trip to a candy store, but when she walked in, she had printed maps directing us from NYU to Economy Candy on Rivington Street.

best. class. ever.

Dylan’s Candy Bar & Pinkberry

February 3rd, 2010

My sister was in town this past weekend so we were hittin’ up some of NYC’s tourist destinations when we came across Dylan’s Candy Bar, what Opera calls a “must see destination” (so you know it’s legit).

This place literally has every kind of chocolate and candy you could imagine. With everything from candy bars to chocolate fountains to fill a bag worth of random candy and then weigh it to pay for it, Dylan’s Candy Bar is the place to go for delicious treats (Valentines Day, anyone?). Oh, and speaking of delicious treats, I also had my first Pinkberry experience this weekend!

Pinkberry is exclusively in New York and California (although it’s coming to Miami later this year, isn’t everything?) and I’m not sure but I think it was the start of this whole frozen yogurt craze goin’ down right now. I had never been there before because I didn’t think I’d like frozen yogurt, but after my Menchies & Lutz (which is modeled EXACTLY after Pinkberry, btw) adventures over Winter Break I figured it was time to try it out… and it’s pretty great, not gunna lie (it’s also two blocks from my door, so that’s nice too).
