WHAT TO DO IN NYC ON VALENTINE’S DAY: 

Happy Valentine's Day!! I hope everyone has someone to share this special day with whether it's a significant other or a good friend. If the holiday has snuck up on you... which it always seems to do... and you don't have plans yet J/Hadley is here to help with our top picks in NYC for V-Day!

Baby Cakes: If you're in the mood for something sweet, head down (or up) to BabyCakes on Broome Street. This NYC gem will satisfy even the sweetest tooth with their heart shaped chocolate chip cookie cake. Bonus- this vegan bakery is refined sugar, soy and gluten free so don't feel guilty about having that extra piece... 

Please don’t tell: Don’t tell them we told, but seriously, it’s too good not to mention. Go to Please Don’t Tell to be transported back to the 1920’s when Speakeasies were king. This quiet bar is the perfect place to sip gourmet cocktails in a cozy booth.

MTA Missed Connections Love in Transit Party: Locked eyes on the Subway with a handsome stranger never to see each other again? You're not alone... in fact, the MTA has created an event to commemorate all the missed connections. This V-Day, head toBrooklyn for the Love in Transit Party at the MTA museum. There will be a poetry reading based on Craigslist "missed connections" posts, live music and of course a photo booth.

Romance Under the Stars: For an evening of star gazing in the city, head to the Hayden Planetarium space theater on 81st Street. Your admission includes an open bar and appetizers from 6:30-9pm. Lay under the stars with your date as you listen to some of the greatest love stories of all time. 

Empire State Building: For the film buffs, recreate the iconic scene from the movie “An Affair to Remember”… or “Sleepless in Seattle”… by meeting your sweetheart at the top of the Empire State Building. What could possibly be more romantic?
