NYC: Roof Garden Cafe at The Met

  • Last updated:October 15, 2023
Roof Garden Cafe at The Met, New York

After an hour of complete relaxation on the grass in Central Park, we walked over to The Met (The Metropolitan Museum of Art) to look at the art and have a drink at Roof Garden Café.

The museum is a truly wonderful place, and even though I’m not particularly into art, I always enjoy strolling around the cool corridors with the high ceilings. It’s usually the impressionist paintings, which makes me stop and makes me wonder, but I’m also fascinated by the ancient Greek sculptures.

We made our way to the Roof Garden cafe before the after work crowd had finished work, so the rooftop was almost empty. For a short while, we could therefore pretend that we had our own private rooftop terrace on Upper East Side. Wouldn’t be too bad:)

Ninja Air Fryer 4-in-1 Pro
$99.99

I’ve had really good experiences with the Ninja air fryers. They're easy to use, the quality feels solid, and the results are consistently great. I’ve had really good experiences with the Ninja air fryers. They’re easy to use, the quality feels solid, and the results are consistently great. I like that you don’t have to fuss around with settings to get good food out of it. Vegetables turn out crisp without drying out, and chicken comes out juicy with a nice golden crust. It’s one of those kitchen gadgets that actually lives up to the hype and ends up being used all the time.

Ninja NC301 CREAMi Ice Cream Maker
$199.95

The Ninja CREAMi is hands down the best ice cream maker I’ve tried. What I really like is the texture. The ice cream comes out so smooth and creamy, better than anything I’ve managed with other machines. It’s also incredibly easy to use: you prep your base, freeze it overnight, and then let the CREAMi do the rest. With several one-touch programs, you can make ice cream, sorbet, gelato, milkshakes, or even smoothie bowls, and the re-spin function lets you make your batch softer if you prefer. You can go all in with decadent gelato, or make lighter, low-sugar or dairy-free versions. You can even add your favorite mix-ins like chocolate, nuts, or fruit to make it your own. It’s a fun, reliable machine that makes experimenting with flavors at home so much more exciting.
