Cafe Panino Mucho Gusto was one of the very few places open on Christmas day, so it was full of people. We didn't expect much of the sandwiches, but we ended up making a second order for more. The strawberry banana smoothie was really good as well.

These New York staircases outside the buildings always fascinate me, not sure why though.

I didn't think I'd go to New York again so soon after my trip in October, but my brother Heytung has always dreamed of a New York Christmas, so our whole family came.  We enjoyed how much everyone got into the Christmas spirit, there were lights and wreaths and trees everywhere.  Looking for food was a bit difficult because lots of shops and restaurants were closed for the holidays, but we still managed to find a couple of good cafes, and had some of the best paninis and pastries we've ever tried.
