Sunday on the West

After a busy week I was really looking forward to a relaxing Sunday with Nelson. It was also Easter Sunday and the blooming trees were a definite indication of Spring. We headed to brunch at West Bank Cafe after Nelson was able to make a quick reservation on Sunday morning. The restaurant was busy enough but very crowded despite the Easter brunch rush. We had a table by the window and were treated to a complimentary delicious bread basket. We ordered typical brunch fare; Scottish eggs (poached eggs with lox) for me and a Croque Madame for Nelson. The plate was very filling with a great salad and roasted potatoes as sides. We were also served another great complimentary item; a fresh fruit smoothie in a shot glass.

We strolled around the West side enjoying the blossoms at the Hell's Kitchen play ground and the Clinton Community Garden. We were headed to the Cort theater to catch the last show of "A View from the Bridge" starring Scarlett Johansson, in her Broadway debut, with Liev Schreiber.
This was the first theater play I've watched on Broadway and I really enjoyed the experience. The city was more crowded than usual due to the holiday weekend. But we couldn't resist walking plaza Rockefeller Plaza and taking a picture of the Easter bunny.
