• Rachel Chang submitted on Portobello Market in London, United Kingdom.
  about 1 month ago

  

  The Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts version of Notting Hill may seem overly romanticized, but the moment you veer left off of Pembridge Road onto Portobello Road, you'll realize the London neighborhood may out-charm its Hollywood portrayal. Follow the street up through the historic colored houses and dive into the market stands, selling everything from classic antiques and crazy tchotchkes to fresh fruits and William and Kate playing cards. One part modern-day charm, one part ye-olde-curiosity-shoppe vibe, and one hundred percent London.

• Rachel Chang has been to Flushing Meadows Park in Queens, NY.

  From its sprawling grass fields to its trademark gargantuan silver globe, the 1200 acres of Queens' Flushing Meadows Park is the antithesis of the hustle and bustle of Manhattan, and just nine miles west. On weekends, the park transforms into a hubbub of family picnics, soccer games, and bike riders. What's the landmark that captures everyone's attention&8212;that would be the Queens Theatre built for the 1964 World's Fair. At first glance, the structure with its two "flying saucer" towers, known best from the movie Men in the Black, appears to be a dilapidated mess. But take a closer look and you just might catch a fascinating glimpse of the 1960s vision of the New York of the future.

• Rachel Chang submitted on Robert in New York, NY.
  2 months ago

  

  The Empire State Building and Top of the Rock may give you a better bird's-eye perspective of New York City, but the view from Robert, the ninth-floor restaurant above the Museum of Art and Design, is the most magical. Set on the south side of Columbus Circle, as soon as the elevators open on Robert, you know you've discovered a New York secret... take a step closer to the window and you'll gasp at the view of the Upper West Side and Central Park. The flawless service, modern design, and imaginative food are icing on the cake.
