This is a town where kids from NH (like me) get freckles on the roofs of our mouths from staring up at the tall buildings. Then, just turn your head to something else amazing:
- Wow, it’s the Chrysler Building!
- Hey, that says “Carnegie Hall”!
- Isn’t that the place where they shot The Apprentice?
When we arrived Sunday, south Lexington Avenue was a huge Puerto Rican street fair (we’d missed the parade.) Later, hunting for dinner, we found a city block (Lexington, 27th to 28th Streets) full of Indian restaurants, and not just Indian restaurants but restaurants
- kosher,
- vegetarian, and
- South Indian.
In fact, one restaurant posted a warning sign on its door “This South Indian restaurant is kosher but not vegetarian.”
What a great city, and btw, I recommend the Mysore masala dosa at Udipi Palace.
