Bite the Big Apple with Mom on the Ultimate Mother-Daughter Outing

 

If there’s one person who always deserves a day of pampering, relaxation, and great food, it’s Mom. You know New York City and you’re not about conventional tourist attractions, so how about planning a special experience specifically catered for you to enjoy with your mom? One of the best things about “The City That Never Sleeps” is that there is always something going on. Whether it’s exploring new spots and making new memories, or reminiscing while you revisit a cherished place, you’re sure to find something exceptional to enjoy together.

Gourmet Gals

As one of the hottest culinary scenes, no matter how well you know New York City, there is always something tasty waiting around the next corner. The best part is that there are options for every occasion and budget, so grab your corner slice or visit a quintessential hot dog cart to get the day started. Head to a classic delicatessen like Katz’s, or make an adventure of it and explore the ever-changing restaurant options for every cuisine and fusion imaginable, from easy-going dining options to something more formal. When it comes to an extra special experience, what better meal to enjoy with Mom than brunch? Turn up your brunch game with a luxurious champagne brunch sail. How could you possibly go wrong with bottomless mimosas while you float by the Manhattan Skyline?

A Whole lot of Green

For all the skyscrapers, hustle and bustle that we associate with New York City, it still has its fair share of well-known green spaces, as well as some hidden gems to discover, where you can slow things down and enjoy a bit of nature. Year-round, Central Park is the oasis of New York City, so take a stroll as you catch up. Like the city itself, Central Park offers a ton of hidden places for you to enjoy. For example, discover the stories of Central Park’s benches, many of which have been adopted and adorned with messages ranging from heartwarming to downright hilarious. You may think you know the park, but having been featured in over 40 films, can you point out all the famous spots? Enjoy some ‘aha’ moments during a movie locations walking tour. There are loads of other great parks to see like Prospect Park and Inwood Hill Park, or you can step back in time with a visit to the Cloisters at Fort Tryon Park. Wander through High Line Park, where nature meets art and design in this urban green space. Or if you really want to switch things up, head to Brooklyn Grange, a 2.5-acre rooftop farm in the heart of the city, and stock up on fresh produce while you tour this green gem!

A Bit of Self Indulgence

As a city with something for everyone, just about anything is possible, so why not treat yourself and your mom to a bit of pampering in every sense of the word? What could possibly make for a better girl’s day than a bit of fashion and self-care shopping with an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at New York City’s Garment District? After a bit of retail therapy, let your sweet tooth run wild with a unique gelato making workshop or fully indulge in a dessert tour of New York City. Or how about indulging in the epitome of luxury? Enjoy your very own mother-daughter retreat at one of the city’s top-rated spas, with a wide variety of options and treatments available. The city may be bustling, but you’ll definitely come out relaxed and rejuvenated!

Hit the Town

You’ve had great food, walked around lush green spaces, relaxed and shopped. Now, it’s time for a night out. Regardless of how well you know New York City, whether it’s your first visit, tenth visit, or you’ve lived there your whole life, you can never go wrong with a show! There are a ton of options for all tastes. When in doubt, a classic Broadway show is always an excellent choice, and you and your mom definitely know all the lyrics! There are also a bunch of fantastic options amongst off-Broadway shows, or switch things up with a more hands-on experience during a night of immersive NYC theatre. For those looking for a bit more drama, there is also a great variety of plays to choose from. And for those eager to cut loose, finish your night filled with laughter at a comedy show. With so many options available, you’re bound to find one which is the perfect fit for your dynamic duo!
