Brasserie Les Halles, 411 Park Ave S. (Gramercy/Flatiron)

Still a downtown location open though

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Sunday, 3 July 2016 23:34 (nine years ago)

This one is very long gone, probably only lasted a few years, but James Redd spent a lot of time there back in the day so

Bernard Organic French Cuisine, 145 Avenue C (seems to me he floated another name for a while "Du Marche")
http://www.nytimes.com/1988/12/09/arts/diner-s-journal.html

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 00:08 (nine years ago)

I miss Florent most of all. To serve drunk people awesome boudin noir at 3 in the morning was a great service to humanity.

Kiev was the first place I ever ate at in NYC. Allen Ginsberg was eating at the table next to me.

Others that come to mind right now:

Café Bruxelles

Cookies and Couscous (tiny place on Thompson St.)

Flea Market Café

Chez Brigitte

Mexicana Mama

Max & Moritz (Brooklyn)

Bamiyan

Josefa, Monday, 4 July 2016 00:48 (nine years ago)

Miss Florent a lot too. Loved the location, walking all the way down Gansevoort Street, loved the genuinely French aura of nonchalant glamour combined with good food and reliable service.

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 01:02 (nine years ago)

Another one I miss a lot, Roetelle A.G., 126 East 7th Street (East Village, obv) mostly Swiss, but with German, Italian and French thrown in as well- didn't they have little country shapes on the map to indicate which cuisine it came from. Loved the spätzle and the sauerbraten. Looks like she a few years ago she opened a place called Heartbreak on Second Avenue that didn't fare too well.

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 01:13 (nine years ago)

Mekong, 18 King Street (Soho), Reliably delicious and fun Vietnamese place. Just closed this April.

http://www.grubstreet.com/2016/04/mekong-soho-nyc-closing.html

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 01:29 (nine years ago)

Ah, yes, original location was 44 Prince Street (Little Italy, Nolita). Doubt I ever went to the King Street location. Eric Asimov review here:

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 01:34 (nine years ago)

Grano Trattoria, 21 Greenwich Ave (West Village). Specialized in game, but fine for other stuff as well. Closed last April (2015).

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 01:42 (nine years ago)

Empire Diner, 210 W 22nd Street (Chelsea). Classic Art Deco decor, one could imagine it was built simultaneously with the Empire State Building. Seems to have closed for the last time last year- OR DID IT? Wikipedia page has mixed tenses and webpage is still running: http://empire-diner.com/

This is gone (although it is nice to know Mimi Sheraton liked to eat there but a much greasier greasy spoon is apparently still going,

La Bonbonniere, 28 8th Avenue between Jane & 12th (West Village)
http://vanishingnewyork.blogspot.com/2009/10/la-bonbonniere.html

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 01:55 (nine years ago)

The Moondance Diner, 80 6th Avenue, between Grand and Canal (South Village), which you may have seen in movies and television although not, apparently, in Afterhours, according to Alex in NYC

Apparently the whole structure was moved to Wyoming in 2007 and the diner was reopened in 2008 only to fail again.

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 02:02 (nine years ago)

I made it to the last Sat night at the Empire, last October.

Ate at the Bagel a few times.

The Hat (El Sombrero) on the LES

helpless before THRILLARY (Dr Morbius), Monday, 4 July 2016 02:05 (nine years ago)

Still there, used to be reasonably reliable, haven't set foot in for years:

French Roast, 78 West 11 (West Village)

Bizarre novelty place we used to go to a few decades ago
The Royal Canadian Pancake House (Multiple locations, original one was in Tribeca, near Wetlands, can't find addres). The RCHP (not to be confused with the RHCP) served outrageously oversized pancakes and omelettes that nobody could finish. Went belly up in 1998

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 02:10 (nine years ago)

Ah, yes The Hat (El Sombrero). Good call!

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 02:10 (nine years ago)

Did it reopen? Around the corner?

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 02:13 (nine years ago)

Went to Moondance all the time during high school / college years. They used to put cinnamon in their coffee. Also The dude who wrote Rent used to work there.

Favorite all time place was Jones Diner on Lafayette and great jones. Old Greek standalone place, booths on one side, counter on the other, sign for "HOT CHILLY $2.95" written on a paper plate above the grill, owner taking your order and yelling "gimme a cheese deluxe!" Now of course it's a parking lot or condos or whatever. Fuck Manhattan

calstars, Monday, 4 July 2016 02:22 (nine years ago)

― Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs

Definitely ate at Roetelle A.G. more than a couple of times, though I never would've recalled the name

Another place I loved was the German restaurant Silver Swan on E. 20th St.

Josefa, Monday, 4 July 2016 03:08 (nine years ago)

The Silver Swan closed? Ugh. When? Looks like 2008. I used to go there with some friends who had a tradition of meeting there for the holidays a little before Christmas.

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 03:15 (nine years ago)

It's extra sad because there's not even another restaurant like the Silver Swan, as far as I know.

NYC dining is really weird, because you might frequent a place at a certain point in time and then forget about it for ten years and then one day you think of it again and your'e surprised to hear it closed years ago. Or alternately, you're stunned to find out a place you used to frequent back in the day is still in business.

Josefa, Monday, 4 July 2016 03:24 (nine years ago)

Yes, exactly. That is pretty much why I started this thread, since I had forgotten a lot since I hadn't been to many of these places in a decade or two and was trying to fight back a little to preserve the last shreds of remaining memory. Maybe the grass is greener, but whenever I have managed to get over to Paris, I usually find a good many places are still in the same place, still going strong as far as I can tell, perhaps with several familiar faces among the staff.

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 03:36 (nine years ago)

Old time conveniently located West Village destination:

Jimmy Day's/ Boxer's, 190 W 4th, Corner Barrow, therefore lots of windows.

Seems to have recently been something called Oliver's City Tavern which is also closed.

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 03:46 (nine years ago)

Place I can't really find any mention of- except in a long unedited list at http://www.marinersguide.com/regions/greatlakes/newyork.ny/restaurants.html

Butler's, 145 Fulton Street (Financial District)

Old school cafeteria steam table place, excellent for lunch. Used to get a roast beef hero w/ gravy and a side of cheese fries, iirc.

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 04:00 (nine years ago)

I wonder why a lot of these places I miss are French. There was also L'Acajou, kind of a diner but one with great French food, on W. 19th St. where the tapas joint Boqueria is now. I remember the French lady who owned the place, she had a weird kind of tattoo where one of her ears was completely colored green.

Josefa, Monday, 4 July 2016 04:12 (nine years ago)

Um, it's perhaps a cliche, but think French places really do have a lot of personality and ambience in addition to the culture of cuisine.

Speaking of which, trying to remember the small French cafe on Sullivan or Thompson maybe there were two branches, where you would go to get a classic cafe au lait and croque-monsieur. For all I know it is still there.

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 04:21 (nine years ago)

if we can expand to bars that served food and little cafes

Cafe La Fortuna on 71st off Columbus
All State Cafe on 72nd near West End Ave
P & G on 73rd and Amsterdam

I miss the Upper West Side of the 70s and 80s i guess

I remember the Silver Swan, had an office party there that was a crazy drunken affair as all office parties should be

velko, Monday, 4 July 2016 04:24 (nine years ago)

Please feel free to expand.

Can't find or remember croque-monsieur place yet.

Did come across this list which has a few of these places including one I never really went to but I have seen is closed recently

Mezzogiorno, 195 Spring Street at Sullivan (Soho)

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 04:26 (nine years ago)

Kiev was the first place I ever ate at in NYC. Allen Ginsberg was eating at the table next to me

Good details! I need to add celebrity sightings when I post, if remembered.

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 04:28 (nine years ago)

Such as

Still there, used to be reasonably reliable, haven't set foot in for years:

French Roast, 78 West 11 (West Village)


should have had
Celebrity sighting: Gina Gershon

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 04:29 (nine years ago)

anyone remember "Top of the Sixes" at 666 5th Ave
I went there a couple of times in the early 90s when it was on its last legs, looked really tired and stale but still had that crazy view

i adored the Kiev

velko, Monday, 4 July 2016 04:36 (nine years ago)

Or

'ino, 21 Bedford Street, near Downing (West Village)

TIny panini place, seems to have been -one of the? -first in NYC, conveniently located around the block from the Film Forum.

Celebrity sighting: Marisa Tomei.

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 04:36 (nine years ago)

Kiev was the first place I ever ate at in NYC. Allen Ginsberg was eating at the table next to me

Good details! I need to add celebrity sightings when I post, if remembered

And of course, that being my first NYC meal, I thought, "this is what always happens in New York, you walk into a random diner and there's a famous person eating next to you." And then nothing like that happened to me again for years.

(But I have dined next to Steve Buscemi in Brooklyn, and Mary Harron - director of American Psycho - at Flea Market Café).

Josefa, Monday, 4 July 2016 04:38 (nine years ago)

(that was xp)

Yes, of course Top of the Sixes was lots of fun, thanks for reminding, barely remember.

Also have dim memory of some little cafe, perhaps burgers a specialty nestled deep inside of a hotel or office building perhaps in the same vicinity.

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 04:38 (nine years ago)

Is Cafe Reggio too iconic for this thread? I was there not too long ago.

socka flocka-jones (man alive), Monday, 4 July 2016 04:43 (nine years ago)

Speaking of which, trying to remember the small French cafe on Sullivan or Thompson maybe there were two branches, where you would go to get a classic cafe au lait and croque-monsieur. For all I know it is still there

Country Café? I almost mentioned that one, it was on Thompson - that location is gone but there's a branch in the Financial District

Josefa, Monday, 4 July 2016 04:44 (nine years ago)

or are we specifically talking about places no longer in existence

socka flocka-jones (man alive), Monday, 4 July 2016 04:44 (nine years ago)

No not Country Cafe, it had a French name, had a wooden chair or chairs a la Van Gogh's NIght Cafe, I think, coffee served in authentic big white bowls.

Is Cafe Reggio too iconic for this thread? I was there not too long ago.

― socka flocka-jones (man alive), Monday, July 4, 2016 4:43 AM (38 seconds ago)


No, that's fine, doesn't have to be out of business. I think anything that was there or has been there since before 1990 is perfect and even sometime after that perhaps.

Still there:

Coffee Shop, 29 Union Square West
Celebrity sighting: David Lee Roth, sitting outside, people watching

Noho Star, 330 Lafayette Street
Celebrity sightings: Wallace Shawn (several times, a regular), Sheryl Crow, Maggie Cheung (outside, through the window, perhaps talking to Olivier Assayas, has seen the two of them some period of time before, perhaps a week or a month, at the Film Forum when they introduced Irma Vep)

Tarzan v. BMI (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 4 July 2016 04:47 (nine years ago)

How's Bayou in Tribeca (Greenwich maybe?) was big in the 80s when Cajun was an actual thing, went there often in the late 80s.
Ludlow Street Cafe was more of a 90s thing for me

velko, Monday, 4 July 2016 04:48 (nine years ago)

Mezzogiorno, 195 Spring Street at Sullivan (Soho)

This place was good, but really overpriced. For me it goes in the category of places I assumed were still open even though I haven't eaten there in ten years.

Josefa, Monday, 4 July 2016 04:49 (nine years ago)

Ha, I remembered your previous post. But it's okay, who reads old posts these days anyway?

Thanks. Figured it out in-between our posts, but I assumed you would remember.

James Carr Thief (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 28 December 2024 01:30 (eight months ago)

Also thinking: didn’t there used to be a zum Stammtisch in Manhattan as well as in Queens?

James Carr Thief (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 28 December 2024 01:35 (eight months ago)

Never heard of one.

There was a Zum Schneider on Avenue C, which you probably know.

James Carr Thief (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 28 December 2024 02:10 (eight months ago)

just saw that La Caridad, the classic, longstanding uws Chinese-Cuban spot (78 & bway, covid casualty) has reopened on 72nd between bway & columbus.

i used to go to the old one with my dad, had to check it out.

It is La Caridad: The Next Generation. It's the Fuller House. It's the Girl Meets World. The new blood have big personalities and seem to be having a blast ♥️ The food is exactly the same (iow rice and beans are 🔥)

ate at the newly-reopened danny meyerified revolving restaurant on the 47th floor of the marriott marquis in times square. food was fine but the scene is terrific. i think it would appeal to readers of this thread.

adam, Monday, 24 February 2025 23:40 (six months ago)

Whoah Josefa! I'm about 80% sure I've been to Sociale with former ilxors bell labs and T. Pinefox! I'm not sure it was a whole restaurant at the time, did it used to be a bar? It was a long time ago.

Ima Gardener (in orbit), Monday, 24 February 2025 23:52 (six months ago)

It seems like Sociale could’ve been just a bar before. When I walked in there today I wondered if I’d ever been there before because there was something familiar about it. The food was great!

xp I ate at that Marriott Marquis revolving restaurant years ago when it was whatever it was called before. Definitely a fun room, worth a visit.

Josefa, Tuesday, 25 February 2025 00:01 (six months ago)

I don't get to that part of Brooklyn much but I think I've been to Fragole on Court Street a handful of times. I decided I liked it when I was house-sitting for someone and the bruschetta and bolognese really made an impression so I went back a couple-few times more. Now that I'm in my gluten-free era there's hardly anything for me at Italian spots.

I went to Brennen and Carr for the first time for my birthday sunday. While it didn't blow my mind or anything taste-wise (and I might have preferred the cheese-laden fast-food roost beef of Roll-n-Roaster more, the experience and aesthetic is unbeatable. Also unbeatable is the embarrassment of ordering a "dingle-dangle" and a "double dip". With a side of juice.

Both those places are a lot of fun and amazing survivors.
