The Other Woman Made Me Do It...Literally

If I were to tell you that I don’t pay attention to set locations in films that I want to visit, I’d be lying. The Other Woman, one of my favourite movies, has some of the best set locations and designs. Extremely modernised to go with certain characters, and to obviously reveal the type of lifestyle they live due to their well-paid jobs and personal preferences.



From the main character’s houses, their cars, even their sky-scraper, modernised and elegant offices. But one location in this film really caught my eye, so much so I’ve had to add it to my bucket list. After hunting around, I’ve found it’s called the Isola Trattoria & Cruda Bar, located near the Nomo Soho Hotel, New York. The hotel is complete with stunning rooms and balcony suites, a beautiful lobby, and an exclusively alluring stylish penthouse with panoramic vistas.
This location is shown in the last final scenes of the film, and as soon as I laid my eyes on the hanging crystal white chandeliers, tropical yet vegetational interior accessories with green house-like open glass foundations. Complimented by the glamorous yet pleasantly beverage stacked shelves, located just behind and around the bar, it was love at first sight. One of the best features of the bar would be the  dark mahogany wooden structure of shelving design, which displays crystal glasses, as well as wine and spirits to advertise what drinks are on offer.

After research, it was now not only the interior that had won me over. With prices varying from $18-$60, their menu of Italian Cuisine - which appears to of taken inspiration from locations such as Sicily and the Italian Rivera, explains their choices of dishes from seafood such as Tuna Tarte, Octopus and Hamachi to more common Italian main course favourites such as Smoked Ricotta Ravioli, Chitarra and Margherita Pizza's.

This is definitely a place I will be visiting when I’m next in New York, and I’m hopeful I’ve inspired someone else to make the journey as much as I want too! Pick you up at 7?
