A father and daughter as seen on the West Side Highway. She’s in the sidecar. Crazy? Yes. But also super incredibly awesome!
Museum, located inside an old freight elevator in downtown Manhattan, just opened its doors. Current exhibition is of everyday objects. (via Opening Ceremony)
“We know so little about where our Internet comes from that we don’t even know what our choices are. I compare it to the evolution of food in the last decade: at the moment, we’re all eating the Internet equivalent of iceberg lettuce, without even knowing what else is out there. We haven’t even begun to have a conversation about what’s behind our connection, its politics and possibilities.”
Lunch with a friend: Northern Spy Food Co. moved into the Old Devil Moon space on 12th st. in the East Village. The food is simple, well-flavored and delicious. Try the Kale Salad, Gnocchi and Squash Soup. Sit in the booths tucked in the back. In June they’ll have a food cart on the High Line in the Chelsea Passage between 15th and 16th streets, open everyday from 11am to 7pm.
It’s Fleet Week! I do enjoy seeing these guys take over the streets (restaurants, bars, photo-ops) of NYC.
“Through several new initiatives, mostly outside Times Square, New York has been rationally using its limited physical space to get more people moving more quickly—and that means not in automobiles. New York has achieved its improvements on the cheap. Better still, the changes have saved lives.”
Our 3rd grader is off on a field trip today to BAM. Her class has been studying African dance and today they get to witness this art form in action. This is one of hundreds (if not thousands, millions?) of reasons why raising children in a great city like NYC is so incredibly, exponentially wonderful.
Colonie Restaurant. Best thing going on upper Atlantic right now.

Waiting for Jerry at the Rockwood Music Hall. A bit o’ country on the LES.
Sums up our April. Now back to business!
Walking along Court Street in Cobble Hill, there are many older shops mixed in with newer restaurants and businesses. This butcher is old-school all the way - complete with neon and the old telephone number.
