NYC Dining at King of Prussia Mall

I have been visiting the King of Prussia Mall for a VERY long time. The mall opened in 1963 and is the 2nd largest mall in the United States. It has some of the best stores and is considered a shopping mecca. They made a huge renovation within the last year, which included some favorite NYC dining options. Since I have never tried the famous Shack Shack, I decided this was the day. I just cannot justify waiting in line for a burger in NYC. 
This is part of the new area of the mall, and it's done very well. I got there pretty early, and no lines! 
The seating area was adorable 

I loved the fact that the tables were made in NY from reclaimed bowling lanes! I ordered the bacon fries, cheeseburger, and chicken hot dog. 
The burger was pretty big and I had to remove some items to be able to bite it. 
The fries were amazing. Crisp and fresh, I could have ate the whole thing, but I didn't! 
The chicken dog was okay, not something I would try again. 
The burger was quite yummy. I loved the little pink in the center. The bun was really very good as well but I still can't see myself waiting in line for an hour for this meal. 
Oh yes there was cheese on the fries with the bacon! 
If I see a small line at a location, I probably would do that but they need to make more locations in NYC! 
The famous chocolate custard was quite good as well. Very creamy and refreshing. 
The Melt Shop is also here but I didn't try anything this day 
I was very happy to see Woops! with their totally delish macarons and other bakery items. 
Bluestone Lane has also just opened here which I was very glad to see. 

I really love these additions to the mall, and although I don't go that often, I think it will make it even better than it was before. It was pretty fabulous before!

Upper West Side Walking Tour

The Upper West Side is a fabulous area for walking. The best way is to not have an agenda, and just see what you find! Here are some of my faves! The Museum of Natural History, a gorgeous building and wonderful exhibits. Plus, The Night at the Museum is one of my favorite films.  
Don't laugh, but I have yet to try a Shake Shack burger. The lines are just always too long, and I refuse to wait for a burger. One of these days I will sample something.  
I forgot where I saw these, but I just love them. The architecture here never gets boring and no matter how many times I see something, I see something new.  
I would love to add flower boxes to my home. They just look so darn lovely.  
This is in front of the famous Dakota building.  
Classic Upper West Side architecture. I cannot get enough!  
I am still dreaming of these lemon pancakes with a dollup of ricotta on top from Gina La Fornarina. This was a stop that wasn't planned, and it turned out so darn well.  
Nice Matin is located in the Lucerne Hotel, which is a gorgeous building. A more detailed shot is below, they took so much time with these buildings.  

This time of year, stopping at Jacques Torres for some ice cream would make you very happy.  
I love when you just stroll upon a farmers market. You find them all year round in the city, I wish my hometown would have them 12 months a year.  

Levain Bakery is just the ultimate "go off your diet" bakery. I was in the city on a Sunday, thinking I could just pop in and pick up some items - the line was almost down the whole street! They are opening a 3,000 square feet new location on 351 Amsterdam Avenue between 76 & 77th Streets. This shop will still remain open. I cannot wait to check out the bigger space and get my hands on some of those cookies!!
