New York is Dead

Quote from GermanTrader:

The ass must be smaller than average, with nothing extra around the edges, and a limit of a 2-second jiggle factor... meaning that the ass has to stop shaking within two seconds of being slapped or bumped by the man's thigh... this allows for differing body types and does not discriminate to allow only hardbodies.

You must like bodies of 15 year old boys.

You call that cute? LOL. You need to get out of the boonies more often.

Marketsurfer does not know NYC, he just moved into it. Come on, he goes to tourist traps like Cipriani's.

Quality places will do OK, as long as they are not overleveraged. The local mom & pops should be fine also, as there is a sense of community in NYC neighborhoods.

The rest are on their way out. I'm glad to see the over-commercialization of NYC reverse its course.

You should tell the regulars at ciprianis that they resemble tourists. I'm sure they will be happy to learn this

I ate there a few yrs ago when I was back in NYC. Not really my kind of place, but a good friend of mine is buddies with the crook who owns the place and his son. Food was ok........drinks were cold....no complaints.

Definitely some real "interesting" people who go there.

Eprado gives it 3 knives on a 5 knife scale.
