<Confess your love in Times Square, the center of the world!>

February is Valentine's Day ❤️

In the United States

There is no custom of women handing out obligatory chocolates to men.

It's a day to show love.


They may be couples who are dating or married couples.

A sweet day to express love and gratitude to each other.


Generally speaking, it is more common for men to give gifts to women.

< Eat $1 cake in NY! >

In addition to the weak yen, prices are high!

" New York is surprised.


However, if you look around, you can find plenty of cheap and delicious restaurants.

One of the charms of New York.

After all, there are a lot of shops.


The first one is the famous "$1 pizza"!

The price has been increased reluctantly due to post-coronavirus inflation

Nowadays, "$1.50 pizza" has become mainstream.

Still, $1.50

It's cheap and the slices are American size, so each one is big.

It's a New York specialty after all.


⚫️ The famous "2 Bros Pizza" has 8 stores in Manhattan ↓
https://www.2brospizza.…

⚫️ There is also "1 Dollar Pizza" at 748 9th Ave (between 50th and 51st Streets)



All of this in New York, where prices are constantly rising.

There are some popular restaurants that have maintained their traditional prices and still offer meals for just $1.

Kam Hing Bakery's $1 cake!

Of course,
It is located in the food town of Chinatown.

address
118 Baxter Street


A local Chinese American restaurant is crowded with customers from the moment it opens for business for its "Dollar Cakes."

Please try it once.

<Saved version‼️
5 Broadway Musicals

Including work,

I've seen every Broadway show that has anything to do with black music.

That's me, Kimiko Matsuo.
Currently being performed as of January 2025

We have introduced our top 5 recommendations in a video.


First, please see here↓

(Plus, special deals for a limited time only!)
*January 21st to February 9th is "NYC Broadway Week 2 for 1"
Two people can buy tickets for the price of one!
That is, half price↓

~I want to see a musical, but the lines are in English.

〜Everyone is really good at singing, but
The story progresses with English lines over songs I don't know.

I was tired from the trip, so...

"I fell asleep in the theater! (sweat)"

What a thing

I don't think it's likely to be one of the five musicals mentioned above.


Because it's a parade of global hit songs that everyone knows.

The songs, the dance and the costumes
That alone is fun!

Let's Enjoy!!!
