Easter Sunday Stroll



Who is the Captain of this ship? Why is there a Captain Morgan statue outside a local hookah bar? Why not. That is why we live in an awesome neighborhood. Jordan and I took a stroll through the neighborhood on a crisp but sunny Easter Sunday. We crossed over the Grand Central Parkway to the Ditmars neighborhood where Jordan spent many years as a bachelor and where we first got to know each other. We passed McCanns pub and the Greek restaurant where we met for our first date. Memory lane.... Some things changed but alot stayed the same. As I had mentioned in an earlier post, there are a lot of great representations of the work of Berch (more Berch File and Old Signs posts to come soon). There are a lot more Japanese restaurants (we had dinner at one and it was delicious). There are some more cute restaurants and cafes. The Top Tomato fruit stand is still awesome and still open 24 hours. We wondered which neighborhood had more cool stuff going on? I don't know. Luckily 30th Ave. and Ditmars are very close to each other.
