Junior's Restaurant

Junior's is quite a famous institution!! It is a must try when visiting NYC ! 
these were heart shaped cheesecakes for Valentine's Day which were so adorable..... 
I really loved the mini versions!! 
their cakes are also very amazing as well  
when I attended the US Open tennis in 2009, they saw my program and said oh you get a free piece of cheesecake since you attended the tennis today. I thought they were joking! Then came this chocolate vanilla mousse cheesecake and I was so happy!!  
their carrot cake is to die for! it is so moist and amazing...you can buy one piece to take home with you and eat it for a few days!!! 
how great would this be for a birthday cake? I love the decoration on the top...so pretty!! 
they make cupcakes as well and they are so tasty!! 
my mom loves lemon so this lemon coconut cake had to come home on a trip and it was so amazing I can't even tell you....... 
the only sad thing about a whole piece to yourself is trying to finish it all ! I did pretty good as only had a salad for dinner since the dessert was coming but didn't quite make it!! 

Junior's was first established in 1950 by Harry Rosen and Eigel Peterson opening in Brooklyn. They still operate the location their as well as in NYC in Grand Central and Times Square. Their restaurant is a great place for a bite to eat as the food is really excellent as well as the desserts.

Goodness, I'm dying over here! Why do you do this to me...hehe. If only we had Juniors in CA :( I see their cheesecakes on QVC quite a bit, but they're a little pricey for me (plus shipping), so I have yet to order one.

Everything looks delish! And the cuppies are adorable ;)

I have been to the Junior's at Times Square several times and it is one of my favorite places to eat while in NYC. I would like to try the chocolate vanilla mouuse cheesecake the next time I am there. It looks yummy!!!:)
