The place is mega-iconic. Looking forward to my next visit. May wear some Reyn Spooner action next time I head up - makes the bartenders feel at home !
Those Bob James keys are sublime. Big up Rivington and Ludlow and the whole L.E.S.

Excellent work stanshall !
Russ and Daughters, a fine nosh indeed, like you say great smoked fish but try their chopped liver almost ethereal.
yes mon, Idris Muhammad's Loran's Dance off his Power of Soul LP .... Kudu, just like the best Sperrys ever made!
Kudu - what a great label. I love everything Idris put out (although personally his disco stuff wasn't for me). Leo Morris, the Blue Note stalwart before he changed his name fact fans !
Extra special shout out to Il Bagatto and The Nuyorican Poets Cafe
Also Miss Lily's Variety, but that's in the West Village.
