Following a trip to Wisconsin to support Travis Kelce during the Kansas City Chiefs' game against the Green Bay Packers, the superstar opted for some Mediterranean food in the city. She was spotted in an all-tweed Stella McCartney coordinated set on Tuesday night as she headed to dinner at Paros where she dined with friend and music producer Jack Antonoff. Helmed by Top Chef's George Pagonis, the Greek restaurant in downtown Manhattan is known for its seafood-centric menu and wide selection of Greek wines.

After her weekend of shows in Argentina (where she was joined by beau Travis Kelce), Swift snuck in a good meal with musician Gracie Abrams back in New York City. The Lower East Side restaurant is uniquely situated down a graffiti-covered alley off the Bowery. With seasonal American dishes like whole grilled brook trout and roasted delicata squash with pumpkin seed salsa verde, Freemans has been a hard-to-get table since its opening in 2004.
