Huh, I would've guessed it was a drug-dealing reference (dime bags), but I guess that probably dates me quite a bit.
Yeah, this would've been a given the last time I left my house. I'm not going out until I get to make up my own neighborhoods and secure REBNY financing for NoDad: the Rollercoaster and West Malarkey: The FX Pedal.

Not one of the Dimes Square people appears to be a Catholic who rejects Vatican II or has taught at Bari Weiss University.

It's official: @EWRairport is not a New York City airport https://t.co/zqtS57J3Kg— Jason Rabinowitz (@AirlineFlyer) September 7, 2022

Weird that Lufthansa group had same fares for EWR and other NYC airports up till now. In my experience, same international flight out of JFK is always much cheaper than EWR.

Going back to the US for the holidays (CT) and going into NYC for one day to run some errands and have Malaysian food. That’s it.

Worth noting that this could be one of the worst cities in the world for Malaysian food. There's an OK place in Sunset Park. And one in Queens. But NY is terrible with SE Asian food. Sydney, NY is not.

xps Are you talking about the Hungarian Pastry Shop across from the cathedral? I live near there. There's a great Malaysian restaurant nearby, in Manhattan Valley. It's the only place I ever order from around here pretty much. But it's more of a neighborhood-y takeout spot than a destination for authentic Malaysian food. There was also an amazing Vietnamese place down the street from the Hungarian in the 90's.

Last time I went to that particular place my impression was the food was actually not very good it's more about the old-timey hang or whatever.

I used to go to the Hungarian a lot with my dad when he was still alive, but I've only been once or twice since he passed away. I was fond of their Hungarian coffee (Americano with almond extract, whipped cream and cinnamon- we were all young once).

I’ve had Malaysian food I liked in queens in elmhust but don’t know what to compare it to. Not sure about saying southeast Asian food is bad here when insanely great Thai food is plentiful in Woodside/Elmhurst.

Stomp will be stomping its last stomp in January. It had a pretty amazing and frankly inexplicable run in the East Village beginning all the way back in February 1994 (before I was even a twinkle in NYC's eye).
