all the 24hr restaurants have been washed away by the pandemonium...(talking about the best new york food places is tough -the instinct is to keep the underrated spots to yourself so you don’t blow up the spot and then have to deal with a line of people.On the other hand you want them to do well and stay open forever and spread the word.)This is the 24 hour spot for the most mindblowing food. looks like a gas station booth honestly. but secretly Pakistan's finest. chicken sandwich or Samosa Chaat , all GREAT.if you wanna sit and eat 24/7 seems like only Remedy Diner at the moment unfortunately. Crazy. NYC: the city that now sometimes sleeps

I love diners. I love eating in them, drinking in them, hanging out in them, writing them and even hosting comedy shows in them. Being in a diner really makes you feel like you’re on the set of a movie. I am sad that so many of them continue to close, or are at risk of closing, so I do my best to visit as much as I can. I like 7th Avenue Diner in Park Slope, Triple Decker Restaurant in Greenpoint and Kellogg’s in Williamsburg where me and my friend Johnny host a monthly comedy show.

As with most restaurants in NYC, Cafe Himalaya has had a rough year. But to top off the pandemic-related obstacles, someone ROBBED them (...like, don’t rob a mom and pop restaurant, you idiot… steal from Whole Foods). It’s been closed for the past month without a word (not even EV Grieve knows what’s going on). Please please please, Cafe Himalaya, you can’t shut down. You’re my fav restaurant in the East Village… my fav restaurant in New York… in the WORLD!! Every Friday I treat myself to a big bowl of Thukpa (Tibetan noodle soup) and momo (potato dumplings). It’s pure comfort food. It’s my death row meal.

The best breakfast in the world is in NYC hidden in the new remade Essex Market. Punk rock fearlessness poured into the cooking (and attitude) here. Feels like it should be as well known as Katz's or any of these other NYC places people always talk about. It's family owned and has been in New York since the 70's. amazing music too, always. they're Mets fans too. magical place. one of the only authentix of old NY left.

Everyone hated this movie but i think it's an unappreciated piece of art and people are just neflix impatient / looking for comforting stuff….the trauma porn thing i don't get,these things happened, did they not? so what are they supposed to do, ignore it? that's not why i like it , just showing the struggles ...Malcolm x isn't called trauma porn? his dad was killed by the kkk... should they leave that out? fuck the haters,i've always been a Marilyn fan, fascinated at humans as inspiring art, like Brando or James Dean... didn't know much about her personally, but found the movie and music to be a beautiful work of art and full of interesting strong philosophical questions & statement.just so bored with the modern posturing. i hear a self appointed inquisitor grilling something mildly inoffensive & all i hear is a salem puritan accuser explaining why such and such witch should be burned or why such and such books should be burned. Because we're modern we think we're somehow beyond those instincts, but we are certainly not. i want progress, i'm just frustrated that the fight for equality and justice gets often hijacked by such thinking.
