Day 2 - Dinner from Cheng's Garden – delivery to Hotel Room -> Rockefeller Centre -> Times Square -> New York City Skyline from New Jersey

Since hotel was so isolated, dinner had to be settled in the hotel's cafe or via delivery from nearby restaurants. There were brouchers available on site for guests to order delivery. We settled for Chinese food from Cheng's Garden, as recommended by the tour guide. It was surprisingly good and took about 45mins to deliver. The broccoli with chicken was tasty, better than that with beef.
We ordered two single portions of beef and chicken brocolli for the children and one double portion of chicken brocolli for ourselves to share.
Beef costed US$6.75 and chicken costed US$6.50 for small serving and US$9.50 for big serving. All served with rice. Total bill was US$25 including tips.

We left for NYC night tour at 6pm. It costed US$25/person. The first place we visited was Rockefeller Centre.
Rockeefeller Center is a complex of 19 commercial buildings covering 22 acres (89,000 m2) between 48th and 51st streets in New York City,
United States. Built by the Rockefeller family, it is located in the center of Midtown Manhattan, spanning the area between Fifth Avenue
and Sixth Avenue. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1987. Extracted from From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
NYC is a city of high skyscrapers.



GE building New York










St Patrick's Cathedral undergoing renovation. There were many churches undergoing renovation at NYC





Next, we visited Times Square. IMO, Las Vegas is more colourful and vibrant.













After that, we left for New Jersey and took a glimpse of the night skyline of NYC before we retire for the day.
