This is a funny parody of hipsters in Williamsburg. The beginning takes place in front of Sideshow Gallery which was recommended by one of our favorite artist, Jacques Roch.
Frank was working hard on the new site last week.
Here he is, for example:

I attended the screening of TV Show pilot En La Escena last night. It’s great entertainment and will be on TV in no time.
And I got a photo op with some of the hostesses of the show!

It’s chilly and rainy today. Tuck into a cafe and have yourself a warm drink.
Here are some suggestions from our peeps:
Gretchen Mol says the cafe con leche at Sucelt on West 14th Street:

David Wain might be at Doma in the West Village:

Charlotte Collard likes the cappuccino on the upper east side at Via Quadronno:

Nutritionist Jennifer Medley opts for the Green Tea Latte at Soy Luck Club:

Matt White might be chilling at Caffe Dante in Noho:

As for myself, I just had Cafe Cafe by the office in Soho!

Walking around on Saturday afternoon, I stopped by Yuka Bar in the East Village with my friend Ross. Our bartender, Carlos, was an Argentinean fellow who served us a couple good bloody mary’s. I asked him his favorite Argentinean food in the city.

Carlos recommends:
Boca Junior Restaurant
8108 Queens Boulevard
Elmhurst, NY 11373
(718) 429-2077
He says there are a ton of soccer posters (Boca Juniors is a top soccer club), history and a great atmosphere. As far as dishes, Carlos mentioned the Asada and Churrasco.
We later stopped by La Esquina (not the downstairs part but the open-air stand) for a burger and fish taco.

A group of Chinese girls were celebrating a bachelorette’s party.

That area around Broome and Mott is fascinating. You have the tourists of Little Italy, Chinatown and a few other cultures mixing in as well. There’s a Bangladeshi deli right around the corner for example. I don’t mean just the owners, but the people in there are all watching Bangladeshi TV and catching up on the news from back home.
You can literally travel the world within just a few blocks. Even on the same block sometimes. Everybody’s doing their thing, it’s quite harmonious in fact, and only in NY probably.
On a side note, I also hung out with Zero. Zero likes to hang out in a bag.


Larissa stopped by to drop off some audio files at the office today. She’s been writing, interviewing and producing for us (great profiles such Amy Sedaris, David Wain and Gretchen Mol). She’s got a few more surprises up her sleeve too (eventhough she’s not wearing sleeves today)!

Thanks La!
