Good holiday weather doesn’t have to be all about the beach. Here are my Top 3 Holiday Monday Funday spots. My fam loves to bike around town.

Like the spicy katsu-curry at super casual Ramen Musashi in Scarsdale or the invigorating head massage/shampoo at Akane Salon in Hartsdale. Now Scarsdale’s Central Park Ave…
