May 1st 2024: Checking Out Bronx Park and its Museums in The Bronx NY

 Heading into Manhattan NY today,

53 West 53

Saint George Tropeoforos Greek Orthodox Church

Marc

Sacred Heart of Jesus Roman Catholic Church

Central Park Place

Dewitt Clinton Park

McCaffrey Playground

Holy Cross Church

we decided to grab a quick bite at the Broad Nosh Bagels location at 314 West 58th Street,

getting the Everything Bagel with Cream Cheese.

Nothing special really. 

From here, we headed into the Bronx,

One Fordham Plaza

Fordham University

Bronx Park

Throgs Neck Bridge

checking out the New York Botanical Garden

taking a break at nearby Chinese restaurant Zhongzhong Noodles for lunch,

getting the TOMATO & SLICED BEEF NOODLE

the SPICY WONTON IN RED CHILI,

the Chicken and Basil Dumplings and Shrimp and Corn Dumplings.

Pretty good flavors. Can see why they have a few locations in the NYC area.

From here, it was on to the Bronx Zoo,

 

Done with museums for the day, we headed to our hotel for the day in North Hempstead NY,

Ellen E. Ward Memorial Clock Tower

Roslyn Pond,
1330 Old Northern Boulevard

at The Roslyn, Tapestry Collection by Hilton. Pretty nice small hotel.

For dinner, we stayed at the hotel restaurant, Atlas New World Bistro, a high end place which has an Indian take to it. 

We got the Grilled Branzino (roasted carrots, basil chimichurri),

the Bombay Chicken Pulao (aromatic layered dish of chicken and rice with crispy onions, mint and cilantro, served with raita)

and the Eton Mess (strawberry, Meringue Cookies, Rocotta Whipped Cream, Berry Compote).

Pretty good I must say for a small town restaurant. But then again, this is the Hamptons.
