Dave's Luncheonette. I must say--that corner is not the same. Egg creams-breakfast..cool place.
horrible news about coney, and it just keeps coming. sodexho food is overpriced, disgusting, unhealthy, chemically-laden CR@P and they want nothing more than to maximize profits for their shareholders at the expense of their customers (or should i say their VICTIMS). this is probably one of the worst vendors in the world. a shame and an insult to all of coney island. i am sick to my stomach reading this. BALANCED MEALS my @$$!!! i hope they fail, and fail miserably. how could the city let this happen with a corporation that has screwed them PERSONALLY, and quite substantially! it is so corrupt what goes on between the developers and the administration. shocking. shameless. APPALLING. and Wrong.
You know, Houston and Bowery is starting to look more and more like Times Square. Soon Disney will open a theatre and boot out the last remaining off broadway one's and the takeover will be complete. Way to go guys! Score another one for the team.....jerk offs.
