The variety of cuisine that the city provides is almost infinite. Starting from Tribeca, Chinatown, Little Italy, Soho, Lower East Side, Meat Packing district, Greenwich Village, Chelsea, Gramecy Park, Theater, Lincoln Center, Upper East Side, Harlem, The Bronx, Brooklyn to Queens; New York City will never fail to surprise us with its treasure of cuisines.
The answer is in the pride New Yorkers take in saying "ONLY IN NEW YORK"


en My father grew up in Brooklyn, but he fell in love with the Adirondacks when he went there for summer camp. So after medical school in Rochester, New York, he drove south until he found a city in which to practice - Hornell, in New York State's southern tier.

en I was educated in the public school system of New York City and was bright enough to be accepted at Brooklyn College.

en [The digital revolution, he argued, would bring comics closer to their roots: cave paintings. Yes, cave paintings.] The ancestors of printed comics drew, painted and carved their time-paths from beginning to end, without interruption, ... the infinite canvas.

en I have this certain vision of the way I want my comics to look; this sort of photographic realism, but with a certain abstraction that comics can give. It's kind of a fine line.

en There's one painting that historically would have been better, ... because it was painted at the beginning of the Impressionist movement, and the one we're using is painted later. In the script they say, 'This is a very important painting because it was painted at start of the Impressionists,' and that's not really true. It was painted a few years later.

en I'm looking at an environmental research firm in Boston, and I'd like to stay on the East Coast in New York or Boston. Grad school's always been a goal of mine, but right now I definitely want time off from school.
