It wouldn't be Christmas in NYC without a visit to Rolf's. Located on 22nd and 3rd this neighborhood establishment has been giving us Christmas kitsch for years. We have to admit the food is mediocre but if you are trying to get in the Christmas spirit this is the place to go! I'd avoid after work hours or weekends if you want to have some room to drink and enjoy the decorations! ____________________________________________ #happenedupon I #newyorkcity I #nyc I #liveauthentic I #community I #igersofny I #instagramnyc I #vsco I #vscocam I #vsconyc I #thisisnewyorkcity I #hiddengem I #instatravel | #wanderlust | #travel | #igers | #ignyc | #instagood | | #rolfs | #christmas | #winteriscoming | #gramercy | #german | #christmasdecorations |
