Phil left a remembrance on Phoenix Garden:
🌹 We used to go here when it was still down in Chinatown. The chinese langauge only menus on the wall inspired me to study Chinese, and in effect set the course of my life for the next 30+ years. GOAT Salt and Pepper Shrimp.

Matt left a remembrance on Bamiyan Restaurant:
🌹 This place ruled! I lived nearby on 26th street and would get a pomegranate chicken dish I think? I loved it.
Titus N. Owl left a remembrance on Feast:
🌹 Never forget the chicken onion
May Kasahara left a remembrance on Ginger's:
🌹 Fantastic cheap lunches. This place was always busy on weekdays, for good reason.
May Kasahara left a remembrance on Charlie Mom's Kitchen:
🌹 The place that introduced me to scallion pancakes. Probably my all-time favorite NYC Chinese restaurant. Miss them dearly.
Garbanzo left a remembrance on Blue Danube:
🌹 Moussaka! All purpose brown sauce!
phooky left a remembrance on Jolie Bistro:
🌹 Oui! ¿Por que no? I think the same folks run Big Tiny down the street. They gave their glasses to their neighbors, so for a while you'd get water in a Jolie Cantina glass at Karazishi Botan.
Christopher J. Michel left a remembrance on Blue Danube:
🌹 I never ordered the grilled cheese and Dom Perignon, but I always wanted to.
Russ left a remembrance on Calexico Cart:
🌹 I miss the burritos!
Josh left a remembrance on Luz:
🌹 I never met so transcendent an arepa de queso like yours before you, and I’ve never meant one since. Miss you, Luz. If anyone knows where to find another like this, please holler.
Elizabeth left a remembrance on Red Lobster:
🌹 Ate a meal with a friend here many years ago. Good biscuits.
matteo L left a remembrance on Zefe's:
🌹 My friend Jessica and I spent dozens of late nights here after experimental music shows discussing music, life, friendships. The owner knew our order by heart. She would greet us every time saying “same thing”?
Burrito Lover left a remembrance on Pinche Taqueria:
🌹 The food here was so inexpensive!! I missed sitting here and people watching with my friends on a nice day. During the cold months they will have those space heaters hanging above keeping you warm. It sucks that the increasing rent around drove this place out. Now there's cookie cutter stores surrounding it. In fact, the whole area around it has changed. Definitely miss the space and great memories made at this super casual spot.
A left a remembrance on Spring Street Natural:
🌹 Ahhh, such great memories of old SoHo. Can't forget the original location on Spring street before they got moved over to Kenmare. It used to be so busy. The food was great. Very spacious. I remember taking my mom here and I got some Tuna Tartare. Great and healthy... RIP.
Blockhead lover left a remembrance on Blockheads:
🌹 Dang, such good memories here. Strong ass drinks and cheap food.
Jonathan K left a remembrance on Bamiyan Restaurant:
🌹 I went here so many times for first dates. The food was excellent, even if the date wasn't. The waiter even acknowledged it with me at one point. Then the owners sold, the new owners changed the menu, and the place closed. So 😢
Roger left a remembrance on Sam Wo Restaurant:
🌹 I took a date here once after talking it up a ton. "Such a cool late night spot, great food, a vibe, everyone goes here". Got to the door and it had been closed for 3 months by the health department for code violations
