Hey Cutie! Just to make you dream a little bit or maybe you can actually get to NY easily… 😍 Either way, here’s my…
New York Gilmore guide ☕️🍎
We’ll go through everything you need to plan a Gilmore inspired time in the city. Let’s go!
-I’m just saying I’m no stranger to the Big Apple.
-You are if you’re calling it the Big Apple.
What to watch:
Gilmore girls episodes:
1.13 - Concert Interruptus
2.21 - Lorelai's Graduation Day
3.14 - Swan Song
4.01 - Ballrooms and Biscotti
A Year In The Life - Spring
Activities:
go to a big concert, like in the Bangles episode!
go to a musical
go to a bar and keep talking about (or trashing) the musical you just saw!
use the jukebox and put the same Dean Martin song 25 times (how ‘bout this one? 😁)
walk a lot
go to fancy art galleries
hang out and read in Washington Square Park
shop at a record store
do a walking tour (book one or do it on your own with a book!)
stay at The Pierre (that’s where Rory and Logan are headed at the end of Always a Godmother, Never a God!)
or at The Algonquin, because of all the Round Table references!
you can use your imagination to complete your NY getaway with activities like…
spa treatments
facials
manicure/pedicure
shopping
etc.
So I don’t have the lingo down yet, but at least I have the attitude.
Food and drinks:
pizza at John’s
crodough cakes
dinner at P.J. Clarke's (Rory goes there with the Wookiee!)
room service: pot roast, mashed potatoes, banana split
hot dog from a street vendor 🌭
only my own suggestion, but Magnolia Bakery has really good cupcakes 😁🧁
You'll need:
the NY Gilmore Guide playlist 🎶
a few stylish outfits
concert tickets
pens & paper to write your own musical
comfy shoes
a book to read in Washington Square Park
any walking tours of NY books
Okay, the next day we hit New York, see your fancy art galleries, hit the Strand. Pizza at John's.
I loooooove New York Cutie pie. I hope you enjoyed this, no matter if you’re planning to go soon or not 🤞
It’d be a great rewatch marathon or day or weekend, wouldn’t it? Even if you’re not actually in NY 😂
All the NY episodes, pizza, hot dogs, a great playlist, a book…
The perfect time! 🥰
Talk soon,
Ariane
