This could be a great week to get outside to do some yoga. And then reward yourself with a sweet treat, of course! Perhaps a Nutella Cronut, or a fish taco, or a macaron ice-cream sandwich. If there weren't so many other great things to do in NYC, we would be tempted to simply eat all day every day. Read on to find out how we'll be filling the time in between meals over the next coming days.

Have a Cronut hole. With Nutella. Now!
Nutella is now 50 years old. You know what that means...hazelnut spread to the face in the form of delectable Cronut holes make by none other than chef Dominique Ansel. Obviously! Stop by today for some complimentary samples to celebrate the occasion.
