Murals on 24 (Restaurant)


As we all know, Manhattan is all about speed, quality and fine dining and when it comes to great ambiance, there is nothing quite like Murals on 24. As you step off the cobbled street of 6th Avenue where the heady speed of things and into Murals on 24, you almost feel like stepping off the party bus, charter bus, coach charter or elegant limousine and into a quiet, magical and stylish world...not just a restaurant. Searches on the internet reveals that they have put much effort into refurbishing the dining room for the modern look where patrons can dine peacefully on their Mediterranean cuisine of choice. Some say that Murals on 24 gives off a very new combined with very modern feel and indeed, is considered one of Manhattan's newest historical restaurant.
The feature that gave the restaurant its name is Dean Cornwell's original historical murals, which was what gave the owners the idea for restaurant name. Dean Cornwell is known as the Dean of American Illustrators, by the way and it is almost an honor to come see the original for yourself. The murals were created specifically for Murals on 24 back in 1937 for the Raleigh Room. What first catches diners' attention is the mural depicting Sir Walter Raleigh receiving his honor from Queen Elizabeth in 1584.
Something as creative as this has its own history, we will have you know. Due to a dispute regarding compensation, Cornwell painted some rather unsightly and disrespectful paintings on one side of the restaurant which the owners closed off for more than forty years! After forty years of discussion and attempts of compensation and resolution, they came to an agreement and Cornwell finally corrected some of the obscene paintings into something better. There were others which were left there in its original glory.
All in all, the murals gives off a very warm and elitist feeling. Most people would say that it is like stepping into and eating at an art museum. Very elegant indeed.
So, if you have a business lunch coming up or a wedding to plan, Murals on 24 should be at the top of your list venues to have it. And in the meantime, for those planning to make a group visit, charter bus vacation or party bus bachelorette parties, this could be right up your alley.

Money Wise In New York – Tip For Foreign Visitors


Here are some tips for foreigners who wish to spend wisely and ensure that they have that spare cash for emergencies while in New York.
If you are not keen on carrying around a huge sum of money in your wallet when traveling with party bus NY, then you will need your credit or debit card, both of which works well with most establishments. The only concern about the getting the best exchange money in NY but the rate depends pretty much on interbank rate which you would have to check with the banks or online. You would be charged some fees for withdrawing money with your foreign ATM card in NY – local bank fees, fees imposed by the bank in your country and quite possibly something else called a 'foreign currency fee' which would be incurred whenever you withdraw from a foreign bank. If you are withdrawing cash from your credit card, please bear in mind that you could be charged a cash advance fee.
Personally, many party bus NY prefer to travel using Travelers Check in NY because most establishments and hotels will readily, without question, take them and cash them out at no extra cost to you. It is a win-win situation for everyone except that you would probably have to fork out extra cash for smaller value.
When changing money, please also bear in mind that the banks give you better rates compared to when you change it at the airport (where most people tend to change their money) at the point of arrival. It is advisable to carry a reasonable stash of cash with you because there ARE some eateries that do not take cards, most of them smaller restaurants and cafes.
