"How ya like 'dem APPLES?!" Man, its been too long since I've been to New York. I just spent the last 10 minutes staring out the 52nd floor window of MetLife directly across to the Chrysler Building, and the window washer working on the very top tier of glass. I love the audacity of the stainless steel exterior. The doormen for that building should be required to drive DeLoreans. Heh. The poor receptionists on 52 were probably wondering when I was going to throw off my mousy exterior and do something hostile, so I left them to guard their phones.
Oh, yeah.... food. I ate in 'Indiatown' for lunch. Great place called Curry in a Hurry. This name sounds familiar, so I'm wondering if it is a little chain of sorts, or maybe its a commonly used name (like Gino's Pizza, etc). Its a good sign if all of the customers are local (to the cuisine), and they were. A flurry of unintelligible conversions hit us as we went to sit down. I had Chicken Marsale (?) - with a cream and tomato curry, and my friend had Chicken Saag - chicken with spinach. Both were amazing, and after we complimented the server he brought us some rice pudding on the house. Since tomorrow I will probably be chained to my desk through the noon hour, its a good thing we brought back the leftovers.
There is certainly no shortage of places to eat in NY, but this time I think I'd like to stay with the little ethnic joints - the places where you have to point to what you want, take-out is a major part of their business, the regulars stay for hours, and everyone that works there is likely part of the same extended family (or at least they act that way). I've got the beta on a great sounding bread place - might be my afternoon snack.
