 Arthur's Tavern
No cover charge. Good basic city blues, '70's soul and funk. Crowded, fun.

Patsy's Pizzeria
| MNC review by cceatsnyc |
May 18, 2009 |
Patsy’s Pizzeria, located on Third Avenue between 34th and 35th Streets (with other locations all over the city) has something for everyone. Entering into this long restaurant (and hopefully there will be no wait) you are greeted by the happy din of both families and couples enjoying a meal. When you are seated at your casual table, the smell of the pizza alone assures you that you are in for a good meal.
Start with an order of the Fried Zucchini & Eggplant with garlic yogurt dip for $9.95 or the Antipasta platter with bresaola, roasted peppers, prosciutto, salami, olives, and aged parmigiano ($9.95 for one or $18.95 for a family portion.) Keep in mind that depending on what you order or how many people you are with, even if you are sharing dishes you may want to opt for the individual sizes which are still large enough to share.
The salads here are also very good. My favorite is the Insalata Siciliana, a green salad with mozzarella, roasted peppers, black... |

Hane Sushi
| MNC review by cceatsnyc |
Jan 21, 2009 |
This teeny tiny sushi joint packs a lot of flavor yet somehow still seems to be just a touch under the radar. Located on 38th and 3rd Avenue, Hane Sushi has only a handful of tables that are often grabbed quickly by Murray Hill dwellers or hungry after-work people seeking an intimate and delicious dinner.
The warm colored wood restaurant boasts no special glamour or appeal and the small and close together tables can occasionally inhibit intimate conversation, but what have you. Service is attentive and polite and waitresses are happy to explain some of the unique dishes, many of which are portrayed on a menu sheet with less than flattering pictures. Go with it.
Signature rolls are innovative and fresh. My hands down favorite sushi roll, ever, is the Panko Crusted Tuna roll that I just think is out of this world. For entrees, the Yuzu Miso Cod, broiled and marinated in yuzu miso sauce for $16 is tasty and light (though not a huge portion).

| Trebuchet |
Thu, 02/25/10
Diane Letulle |
I saw the Trebuchet
Fiercest war machine
At a castle in Dordogne
And on the ground
Stone missiles
Heavy, round, potent
I thought about
The hardness
That sits inside of you
Launched defensively
It obliterates
The finer parts of us
No armistice is coming
The air carries martial drums
You horde your ammunition
Like a warlord under siege
Diane Letulle uses poetry to process powerful emotions. Her works focus on family and relationships, and she has published a number of poems on Open Salon.

Fri, 02/19/10
Allison Langerak |
New Yorkers live in such close proximity to each other that we get real, unadulterated opportunities to observe each others behavior. In fact, we don't have a choice. Especially on the subway. If you're like me, you try as hard as you can to live in the bubble between your backpack and your book only letting your eyes venture out enough to find a seat. Sometimes, though, we forget our books and are forced to people watch to make our journeys pass by. In doing this I've noticed a disturbing trend: people leave their earbuds in constantly. I've seen a pair of friends having a conversation and one of the two is listening to music. If one of my friends did that to me I would get off at the next stop and never look back. What, my conversation skills are not entertaining enough for you? Even worse is seeing a couple in which one or both is wearing headphones. And the worst of all is seeing a mom or dad listening to music while their kids sit idly by wondering what they did...

| Poetry Served Straight Up |
| Between the Divide |
Thu, 02/11/10
Alyssa Yankwitt |
The precipice of our love
that right now dangles over me
promises
your breath will swim through my veins
like salt water;
your fingerprints will live like ghosts
crawling beneath my skin
and your name will fasten straight through
my heart like an eye hook.
Baby, your poems will fill up the empty spaces
of our breaking
once the air between us divides.
Our palms, their tangled lines unraveling
our mouths filling with each others’ lies.
