Or if you're inclined, please tell us about yourselves, introductions, or updates. Of course, framed in a NYC context, or add a detail that New Yorkers can relate to. ( Read more... )

Happy Holidays! Cheap diners, food

Happy Holidays to whoever is still around here!

Over the next two weeks, I might hang out with an old friend or two, but it may be somewhat spontaneous. Will want to shoot the breeze over some food, but the main problem is a cheap joint to eat and relax.

Would appreciate suggestions for general cheap diners, coffee shops, various ethnic food ( Read more... )

Real glass, not plastic; I finally found plastic ones in a discount store. Also his was very small, roughly half-inch in diameter ( Read more... )
