Or my second day out of three.
\nIt’s appropro because it was after 1300 when we finally left the apt for brunch. Found a neat place in Soho where the food was good but the coffee was grrrreat!
\nOf course, I’ve not had proper coffee in three days so I was jonesing for a cuppa. Soho was great. Lots of boutiques and places to eat. Like Union Street with character. And an Apple Store. Yay Apple Store! But no video iPod yet…
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nThis be one of the streets of SoHo…<\/em>
\nAfter brunch, I was left to my own devices, so I went shopping. The big Dean & Deluca was nearby so I got coffee…
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nYay! Look at all that coffee! How many cups could all that make?<\/em>
\nSmelled cheese…
\n\"\"<\/a>
\n…mmmm cheeeeese! <\/em>
\nThen I saw the “don’t take pictures” sign so I stopped. Dun wanna offend the food police. And besides, this is their store…
\nA long stroll down Broadway brought me to Century 21. Might pick up a suit tomorrow.
\nThen a visit to the hallowed ground that is the WTC. Possibly the only serious point in this brief NYC visit. ‘Nuff said about that.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nno snazzy comment here…<\/em>
\nShot back up to the East Village to find a good ramen shop. I found many, including this place that makes a good tonkotsu ramen.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nmmmmmmmm, tonkotsu ramen……<\/em>
\nOnly nit to pick: not enough cha-shu in the soup. The soop, btw, was delish! Almost as good as being in Hakata.
\nApparently, along St.Mark’s Place between 2nd and 3rd, there’s several ramen shops and a big BIG izakaya with a queue outside.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nAnother good looking ramen shop. On my list for next time!<\/em>
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nThe big izakaya<\/em>
\nIs it coincidence that all the ramen joints are within walking distance of the NYU dorms? Nope, I thought not.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
