 我们起先联系了位于曼哈顿第八大道的B&B, 但是一看条件与期望值相差太大，就立即转赴HolidayInn。价钱贵点，但是停车免费，出行有地铁。很方便。

最近这次去纽约，给我印象最深的是一家叫鹿鸣春(Joe’s Shanghai)的馆子。那里的蟹粉小笼用料猛，汤汁足，口味绝佳，绝不比上海的南翔台北的鼎泰丰逊色。 这家店在纽约是非常有名的，有两家店面，总店在唐人街，分店（价格贵些）在中城的商业区。虽然鹿鸣春其它的菜还谈不上特别正宗，但在海外旅行，能吃到这么 地道的蟹粉小笼，那感觉是完全不一样的。

天津狗不理纽约分店

地址：135-15 37th Ave., Flushing，电话：(718)886-2121天津狗不理包子已成为津门一绝，享誉海内外，而其开设在纽约法拉盛的分店更是方便了身在海外的华人，使其一享其绝艺。包子没有正宗狗不理 的好，不过擀皮儿的面杖很正宗，呵呵。推荐溜肝尖，小青椒大肠，京酱肉丝（还是豆腐皮的呢），麻酱花卷，如果去的早的话还有早餐，有煎饼果子和嘎巴菜 ！

纽约的吃

曼哈顿8街，2大道和3大道之间，街北边的《故乡味》，是我走遍美国找到的唯一一家正宗湘菜餐馆。火焙鱼、浏阳手撕鱼（就是湖南腊鱼）、虎皮青椒、还有两个菜忘了，巨正宗。美国挂湘菜牌子的无数，但都与湘菜毫无关系，说明业主毫无职业道德。只要菜谱上说"湖南牛"、"湖南羊"之类的，赶紧逃跑。

法拉盛Main街，靠近Northern Blvd，街东边的《小肥羊》药膳火锅，很有特色。不怕你能吃辣，但是味道比一般四川火锅丰富。

《膳坊》（法拉盛Main街西边，Roosevelt大道一两个街区？）的成都小炒，有特色，仅此一家。

《朵颐》（曼哈顿39街，5、6大道之间，街北边。法拉盛有家分店，Main街西边，37大道两个街区）的土钵血旺鱼片、水煮牛、姜蒜腊肉（号称自己做的，也确实正宗），地道。《五粮液》、《川霸王》之类的，已经毫无生气，最多也就是可吃而已。

《鹿鸣春》（曼哈顿唐人街和法拉盛）盛名之下，其实也符。蟹粉小笼包自然是独步天下，炒菜也很不错。别看一个清炒豆苗，火候少一秒则太生，过一秒则太绵。《鹿鸣春》炒菜的火候非常到家。上海菜，让湖南人夸成这样，这不是一般的成就。

曼哈顿唐人街Canal和Center交叉口路边上有个羊肉串摊子，据一个朋友介绍巨正宗。他的刁嘴水平和我不相上下，哥们一气吃了十串。

曼哈顿7大道58街，靠近中央公园，街西边，有家专门吃面包的去处，如果你爱吃面包的话，那是美国最佳。

英国设计师 展皇家风范

被公认为美国境内著名的英国花园的老威斯贝里庄园，系美国金融大亨暨运动健将约翰费比斯(John Phipps,1874-1958，其父为赫赫有名的卡内基钢铁公司的合伙人及慈善家亨利费比斯)，为讨他的英国妻子玛格丽塔葛丽丝欢心所建。因此， 1904年破土兴筑的豪宅及园子的造型，在伦敦设计师乔治柯罗里的巧手下，简直就是查理二世时代的风格再现，游客漫步于这占地一百六十英亩的庭园，往往有 如置身欧洲庄园的错觉。事实上，不少去过凡尔赛宫等欧洲名园的游客，都有此庄园不输欧洲任何一家名园的感触。

步入这座费比斯一家族生活了五十年的庄园，第一个教人叹为观止的，就是浓密得不见天日的参天古菩提及山毛榉，在历届园丁的慧心打造下，已俨然成为高耸壮观的树蓬丛林，走在其间，登时有远离尘嚣的快意。

豪宅古意浓 电影拍外景

豪宅入门处以拉丁文写有「愿来者心情宁静，愿离开时身心健康」(Peace to those who enter, good health to those who depart)，虽因它没有像探访欧洲城堡时，有种说不出的神秘古意，但屋内陈设及氛围，很容易让人联想起电影「傲慢与偏见」「理性与感性」的诸多场景。 据园里管理员说，不久前，一部由女星蜜雪儿菲佛及薇诺娜莱德担纲演出的「Ageof Innocence」，就有很多的景系藉此园拍摄的。

豪宅内的每个房间，都以摘自庭院的鲜花来点缀，餐厅桌上的摆设亦予人有屋主只是暂时外出，随时就要回来用餐的感觉。宅宇上下的陈设虽谈不上奢华，但从家具、水晶灯、镶金镜子及无数名画收藏的气派，看得出屋主当年的财力，不是「厚实」二字足以描述。

小径花木幽 长逾一英里

不过，总的来说，游客最爱的可还是能在总长达一点三英里的花木扶疏小径上，欣赏奇花异草。像一条铁杉长青树步道，乃仿费比斯太太婚前于英国Sussex郡Battle Abbey居住时的一条紫杉步道而设计的，由于它幽静得有些令人毛骨悚然，因而有ghost walk之名。此外，紫丁香步道上既有传统变种花草，亦有色彩缤纷的新款杂种繁殖，每年5月间释放出怡人的香气，皆教人不忍离去。

整个庄园被规画成好几区，如占地两英亩的意大利园、英国风味的玫瑰园、庭院颇具禅味的日本园、或专门植种耐旱植物的灰色花园、或只种可以食用的的果蔬区、或景色最受专业摄影师青睐的黄杨木小籓篱灌木与欧洲花园等。

就在游客围著凉亭、花坛、水池、藤蔓棚间欣赏著鸢尾花、天竺牡丹、飞燕草、秋牡丹、紫萝兰的争奇斗艳间，偶尔可见一些供孩儿们游玩的小木屋。据说费 比斯极钟爱四名子女，有三间小木屋系按照三个儿子玩具屋搭建的翻版，而当掌上名珠佩姬十岁生日时，更为她搭了一间迷你英国式茅草屋，不仅外观有模有样，内 部的家具还一应俱全。

庄园的地址是：长岛 Old Westbury Rd. 71号约在纽约市东部廿哩处。

若自行驱车前往，可上Long IslandExpress-way (I-495高速路)，在39出口(Glen Cove Rd.)下，走serviceroad往东开1.1哩后，往右转到Old Wesbury Rd.,再继续开0.4哩，庄园的大门便会出现在你的左边。
