Thank you so much for all the info. Yes, we are staying at 70 Park Ave. Hotel. Thanks for letting me know about the Park Ave. & Park Ave. South thing. I'm just waiting for a Trader Joe's to open a store here in Rochester. I only get to visit one about once a year. I'm not used to standing in lines, living up north here. Thank you again.

I'm visiting NYC from late Friday afternoon to late Monday morning. Staying at 70 Park Ave. Going to the 8pm show Saturday night on 42nd & 7th.

This is a "girls weekend", no husbands! There will be 2 of us, one is a very picky eater and I'm open to anything but raw fish and the nasty bits!

Take me for a real NYC food tour in the hotel and theater areas we will be in. Pastries for breakfast, a yummie on-the-go lunch, and a really good but not too expensive dinner ($20 - $50 per person dinner). Also, the best coffee, cheesecake and cupcakes.

I'd love to find a few fun food shops, fabric and bead stores, and a good place for oriental paper products etc. I think I'd like to go to Grand Central Terminal, what's cool there? Is there a Trader Joe's grocery store in the city?

Thanks for anyone's help!
