I lived in New York from 1979 to 2004. And God help me I worked at Club Edelweiss next to the Market Diner for a few glorious perhaps infamous years as a bartender and I miss all of it with all my heart. The good and bad times. Sitting in the Market Diner at 4-30am ordering a scrambled eggs soft on toast after 8 hours at Edelweiss is something I'll never forget or, taste again the same way. Or ordering a side order of bacon during shift while on the Atkins Diet, or a Cheese burger deluxe cause it was just so good after so many White Russians! Toast to the Market Diner! And to you Edelweiss as sour and happy as you made my life. I miss you both. With love Crystal, or Xeta as I am now called.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-6939207681396903142016-02-09T12:51:48.090-05:002016-02-09T12:51:48.090-05:00mrnickcooper said "It's getting more and ...mrnickcooper said "It's getting more and more like anywhere else. You might as well be in Baltimore or Philly half the time."<br /><br />I started saying that back in 1987; I had been impatient of older folks saying it to me in the late 70s when I moved here, but eventually came around to their point of view, when places and people I loved began to vanish.<br /><br />However, I still meet young folks who have just moved here and still think it's the most exciting place in the world to be. Just imagine!Scouthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07860208585189661470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-69089549835391078222016-02-08T23:35:36.762-05:002016-02-08T23:35:36.762-05:00It's getting more and more like anywhere else....It's getting more and more like anywhere else.

..."Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown."<br /><br />Once again, generic and conformity win against originality and the creative.<br />Both the corporate and PC crowd should be proud of their recent accomplishments.Tal Hartsfeldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05077424958233740898noreply@blogger.com
