Part One
So full of wonders is New York City that I’m already on my third post… and I only spent three days there! How many posts would I have to write if I’d spent a week?! Part One of the NYC Posts detailed my culinary adventures with my dad at Hangawi (as well as our cheesecake fest the next morning).
.
Part Two: I discovered a new favorite restaurant and ordered quite a lot of food!.
Moving on to Part Three: Pearl River Mart, a Dish-a-Holic’s dreamland!
(Weirdo)
If you thought Pier One was a fun place to shop for dishes, oh boy do you need a trip to Pearl River Mart. It boasts not one, but two floors filled with dishes of every size and shape imaginable, some of which are the most adorable things you’ll ever see! From owl teapots to piggy plates to flowery bowls, I wanted to buy out the store.  Don’t even get m started on all the origami, trinkets, and other non-dishware I wanted to buy. Unfortunately (fortunately for my wallet, though!) I had to exercise self-control because whatever I bought had to be carried around the city all day.
As I mentioned in my Survey about Me, I harbor a huge obsession for all things panda-related. So, looking at the panda dishes below, can you now understand how hard it must’ve been for me? Poor CCK…
Along with the panda plates and dishes, they also had a panda pencil sharpener, paper shredder, balloon…
I did end up buying a few dishes. (And that pencil sharpener; I just couldn’t resist!)
I would either get a food processor/magic bullet or some kind of grill thing! or maybe a frozen yogurt maker?!?!? or maybe some cute lil’ plates?? ahh so many choices i hope i wiiiiin! 😀
I would buy knives. Mine are not very high quality and I would love some new ones!
I would buy a calphalon pot. I have a pan and love it…but need a good pot to cook my oats in. 🙂 mine are old and peeling….
I’d definitely put the $60 towards a panini press! It’s something I’ve wanted for a while but never treated myself to!
I would buy a new blender–mine is now making horrible noises every time I attempt to make a smoothie!!!
I would definitely put the $60 towards buying this beautiful Jaccard mandolin as I have been dreaming about having one in my kitchen: http://www.cookware.com/Jaccard-200421C-JCD1005.html. Although it would also be fun to get this spiral slicer: http://www.cookware.com/Paderno-World-Cuisine-a4982799-WCS1442.html I really want one so I can make veggie noodles more easily.
I would get either a cast iron pan, food processor, or mixing bowls – all of which I’ve been meaning to get for so long.
I would buy a big blender. The one I have now is old and tiny!
I’d go with a spiralizer and some new knives. Mine are bad, old, and cheap… time for a serious upgrade!
Ooo! I would love to own the EatSmart Nutriton Scale with Digital Food and Nutrient Calculator in Silver. So helpful… and shiny!
