Yeah, I saw that wall of photos. So, why is it so famous with the celebrities and NY elite? Is the food good? or is it just location? word of mouth? does it have a history like some of the italian restaurants in old town chicago? or, Maybe I should ask Anthony Bourdain?
It is bare bones, ZERO atmosphere, hot tea served in plain glasses – not even teacups. Take a look at the wall on the back — every wall is covered with who all from New York City and Hollywood has eaten there. It’s open 24 hours — the cops once told me, don’t eat there late at night — you can get shot by Chinese gangs if they have a shootout and you happen to be there.
I really need to leave the freaking Arctic. I just get super envious at these images. (I just swore. )
I love the mono tones and the geometry of this. But it seems quite “sterile” for a restaurant.
