The Flon

Was the accordion still on the stage?

Agreed that the bar area is a fabulous place to meet a group and the drinks are well prepared. The food in the dining room was fine. Good service

Yes, it was a pair of women who had worked at the Breslin, Spotted Pig or both

It was a terrific version of the sandwich and I was sad when their place closed. The two partners went on to start a butcher shop/farm in update NY that did deliveries to NYC once a month during pandemic. good product. I think one of their workers passed away and the whole concern shut down soon after.

Started the evening at Dutch Kills where randomly I FINALLY met WIlfred! He had the same idea my party and I did which was to get to M.Wells before they close shop at the end of this year. Really great meal but the tete de porclet was a particular highlight. Half a pig's head and perfectly crunchy/fatty/gooey.

It's a fabulous place!

Trying to get there as frequently as possible until they close. Did I hear they might have a NYE blowout? Would be the first time in 20 years I'd consider being out of the house on an NYE

We had a delivery from them during pandemic and while the rapturous online buzz was definitely overstated in regards to how good the bird was I seem to remember it came with a fried rice that was EXCELLENT

Cozy Royal in Williamsburg. Ci Siamo has been consistently good. Rule of Thirds in Greenpoint

I think it is/was called "Grill on the Hill". It was...pretty grungy but an experience.

At The Wallace has terrific food all around. Still bummed they dropped the fried cheese curds. Also, after years in the wilderness during which Harlem Shake was serving some truly substandard food they have had a great burger and hot dog again within the past six months. I think they made some much needed adjustments.

Orik's photos seemed promising

Finally returning this Saturday with another couple. Double date!! The only dissapointment will be that we probably won't be able to sit at the counter which is always delightful!

Just hope it goes better there than it did for Victoria Blamey. Who we are hoping to see soon at Blanca

Liz Johnson (whose cooking we loved at Mimi's) and opened Horses in L.A. is finally opening a new place in the old Chumley's space. Looking forward to visiting soon
