Last night we did make it to Junior’s and had the best combination pastrami and corned beef Reuben topped off with the famous Junior’s original cheesecake. If you ever have a chance to hit Junior’s when you are in New York City, we would highly recommend it. After gorging ourselves on dinner we went to the AMC 25 movie theater in Times Square and saw Julie and Julia. Great, great movie – (5 stars and 2 thumbs up). Now we have to buy Julia’s cookbooks and turn our Sundays into French cooking days.We walked the Handmade and At Home sections of the gift show today. Saw a number of new items that we are considering for the store. More on these new items as we progress on our decision making this week. In addition, we met with a number of our current suppliers and placed some orders.
We had planned to start this blog entry off with a picture of a product but we got hooked on a great dinner tonight. So we had to show a picture, (though the picture doesn't do it justice), of the great tasting and beautifully presented Lamb Shank with Soft Polenta and Baby Carrots from Saju Bistro in Manhattan. Though not shown, since we ate it before remembering to take a picture, we also had Panna Cotta with Figs, (in fact we started with this desert first), Chilled Cucumber Soup, Baby Greens with Goat Cheese and Figs, Crab Cakes, the Lamb Shank, and finally Chocolate Mousse and Coffee. We did share everything so we weren’t complete gluttons.
I promise that the next blog entry will be more about the show and less about the food.
