Finally Pommes Frites

I stumbled upon this NY landmark tonight on the way back from this club in the LES. It's at 2nd and 7th apparently. I am currently on a parj bench, listening to Yppah and trying the Parmesean Peppercorn sauce. Very tasty....

The Highline & Trestle on Tenth

I planned a nice little date for Jessica yesterday. After work, we went down to the Highline in the West Village/Chelsea area. This is a part of NY that I really like but rarely visit. There is a lot of beautiful post-Industrial architecture, most notably the Highline itself. The Highline is an old elevated train route that has been converted into a long garden park with a walking path. NY is quite humid this time of year and it is actually noticeably cooler up on the Highline. We exercised our amateur photography skills and enjoyed some people-watching.

 The Highline is only half finished but the current northern-most stairs are only a few blocks from a great restaurant, Trestle on Tenth . I was there for a friend's birthday party a few weeks ago but this was the first chance I've had to get dinner there. Their food was really great, especially this Swiss cheese our waiter suggested, a Tête de Moine that we found very interesting. All in all, it was a solid evening. Any of you fools in NY trying to come up with good date ideas, take heed of this one. Seriously, take heed.

Sheetz Blows My Mind!

This gas station chain in VA has these consoles where you can submit requests for made-to-order food. I ordered a breakfast sandwich with exactly what I wanted on it without waiting in a line or talking to an employee and it was only $2.50. Plus the bathrooms were super clean. Very nice work, Sheetz. You get an A+.
