    Russ & Daughters has the best lox in NYC according to Ms. Ragu, who's developed a taste for it.

    I have to order for her, though. ... She is incapable of getting the words "bagel with cream cheese and lox" or "bagel with a shmear and lox" out of her mouth in a way that is understandable to anyone else (although it's worth the price of admission to hear her say the word "shmear"). Whenever she tries to order herself, she somehow ends up with a bagel with the lox spread. The disappointment when she goes to sink her teeth into it is heartbreaking.

    They don't have a menu posted where I can capture it, and certainly they don't have one with English translations, but for old fashioned French bistro cooking, and by old fashioned I mean their menu would not have been out of place before World War I, Chez Rene on Boulevard St. Germain in Paris on the Left Bank, is the very best. Pot au feu, Boeuf bourguignon, chocolate mousse (a must have) and like that. Totally recommended.

    Useful shorthand when comparing the authenticity of cheesesteaks outside of Philadelphia: If it has peppers on it, it’s not.

    Meat, onions and Whiz. On an Amoroso roll. That’s it.

    I lived down the street many moons ago, although I don't remember them in that spot. Maple Donuts ain't a bad joint for what it is.

    Easily missed on 462, and the exterior belies what's inside. Very '50s-looking place, with the old green canopy at the entrance.

    Who lives in the house, the cafe owners or someone else?
    Strange set-up there, really tight. Also, how many does that little cafe seat?
