Holsten’s, the diner where they filmed the last scene of The Sopranos. As part of a tour we stopped there for complimentary onion rings and sampled some of their home-made chocolates. My favourites were chocolate-covered pretzels, which seemed to get outlawed in the UK ten years ago. Petition for their return!
Eisenberg’s, opposite the flatiron building. A famous sandwich joint from 1929, at which we grabbed the above breakfast. It wasn’t the food that made it, more the 60+ yr old guy behind the counter gabbing on about his sick mother, his rich aunt, and being invited to Amish reservations. Hilarious and memorable.
