Emily Blunt is an international jetsetter, so when she reveals her favorite spot in New York, we perk our ears up.
During the red carpet of the American Institute for Stuttering's 19th Annual Gala in New York City on June 10, the actress spilled the beans exclusively to HELLO! - and it has a surprising connection to Taylor Swift.
The mom-of-two was hesitant at first when asked about her "favorite spot in New York City," responding: "Oh God, but then I'm gonna tell you my favorite bar and then everyone might take my spot. No, I can't."

We couldn't agree more — just the name itself intrigued us to find out more about her secret hanging out spot and what makes it so special.

"And I hope I never lose you, hope it never ends / I'd never walk Cornelia Street again," she sings.
Emily continued: "They do gorgeous little wonderful little snacky foods and the cocktails are insane."
The actress' helpful description sold us for our next night out, however, Emily concluded by warning: "Don't take my spot."

The restaurant's website explained: "[Sip and Guzzle] imagines if the samurai did open that bar and took everything they learned — the best of New York and Tokyo and came back to where it all started."

The restaurant states that its "a fine place to sip or guzzle," and looks like Emily wholeheartedly agrees, and we're in.
