During the memorial Day holiday weekend, a few friends and I walked along Riverside Drive in New York City to take advantage of the gorgeous weather. Along the way, we discovered the Little Red Lighthouse besides the George Washington Bridge. Little did I know, the lighthouse is popular in its own right. Read [...]

We at Shop By Subway normally stay away from topics such as politics and religion. However, Brooklyn Ron posted about an interesting exchange on the A Train about the current presidential race to the White House.

If you are in need for a pick-me up after hitting the bars or even after a manic Monday, Choux Factory has the prescription for you. I was especially partial to the vanilla and custard puffs.

I would go back and forth on Watts occasionally waiting for this restaurant to open. It was long worth the wait. I attended Lola is Soul as a guest at a private function. The ambiance for me seems like a revival. The royal purple and gold ceiling trimmings set the standard for the dining [...]

(This post is from the end of August and I’m just getting around to posting it now since it won’t be warm for too much longer.)

If you didn’t know the A train line recently celebrated 75 years of service. I decided to pay homage by saluting the old school. Listen to Duke Ellington and his Orchestra play ‘A” Train.

Boy was I surprised last week, when my friend calls me and said that she scored tickets for Avenue Q. It was just what the Dr. order after a week of madness and mayhem in Gotham. The play reminded me to stay true to myself despite obstacles that may arise.

I went to Zanzibar for a social function. I was only expecting drinks, but I was pleasantly surprised by the menu. I shared the Grilled Baby Lamb Chops with a friend and I had the Chorizo al Vino to myslef. Both dishes had dates which gave a fruity balance. I ate and I didn’t [...]
