In the Window at Russ & Daughters

One of the old book jackets lining the walls of Chumley's. Eternal Shame on Bloomberg, the City Fathers, and the powers that be that this cultural landmark has STILL not been saved and reopened.
The late, great McHale's, the death of which inspired the birth of this blog.
The original, running Jeremiad on the vestiges of Old New York as they are steamrolled under or threatened by the currently ruthless real estate market and the City Fathers' disregard for Gotham's historical and cultural fabric. Est. January 2006.

- I have lived in New York City since 1988 and earn my bread as a writer. I began this blog in January 2006. Beyond that, don't be so nosy. "I am not a pessimist; to perceive evil where it exists is, in my opinion, a form of optimism." —Roberto Rossellini

A friend tells me, "They look good, but don't get them; they taste like smoked fish."
The comment above is ridiculous. Seems especially rude to report a slight secondhand. I can report firsthand that I eat dried fruit from there all the time. I buy coffee and fruit and sometimes candy and none of these ever tastes like smoked fish.
