As someone living in England I came to NY for my first trip in 2007 to watch hockey and sample some of the things I grew up with on TV shows.<br /><br />I have the fortune to stumble on Joe's Dairy back then on a cold January morning, bought some smoked mozarella and went in search of a local bar to have a drink and taste it. Wow! It really was worth the trip alone to do that.<br /><br />Now, planning another trip some time in the next hockey season I learn that Joe's will not be there. Such a shame.<br /><br />Watching the video also makes me think of where we are all going? Local food and ethnicity based retailing is one of the reasons why people travel to new countries and cities - to sample the things that are different. These days in England we have Starbucks, Gap etc and so we only need go to our local town and we have pretty much the same as you guys anywhere in America.<br /><br />My next trip will most definitely be less of a stay in Manhattan (I am an Islanders fan after all!) and I will go and stay in the Boroughs and seek out the things that have moved/been forced out of Manhattan.<br /><br />Hopefully, I will find more than a bunch of Starbucks and global logo's.. Hopefully..Polkohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02319004168387859789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-12683841362259973452013-05-16T14:51:13.837-04:002013-05-16T14:51:13.837-04:00That is nothing short than a crying shame.

The South Village and Soho together comprised a forgotten Little Italy, the remaining traces of which have for long been far more authentic, and far less tourist-riven, than the few blocks to which the "Little Italy" moniker were appended. Raffetto's and a few other places linger on, but one gets the increasing feeling that they are all doomed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-38418745565314450982013-05-12T08:45:04.577-04:002013-05-12T08:45:04.577-04:00Sad to see another one go.

The sad part is that there really is nothing special about either place. Those kinds of places used to be the norm. But out with the old and in with the new.
