メリークリスマス！

merry christmas from tokyo!

clifton, nj

this time, it's clifton, new jersey, with little 16 year old boy zackery dufft whos with VNY. he reminds me of a tilda swinton meets river phoenix, soft spoken and likes to have finger food. the lunch we had at this ginormous diner called TICK-TOCK DINER is just classic, i had the turkey chilly with nachos in colors, lol

the breslin

the BRESLIN is so awesome. this baby brother of the SPOTTED PIG has peter pan green everywhere, the couch, the wall and stuff. the two-story-high ceiling is magnificent and the the curtain-enclosed booths where there is a button on the wall for u to summon your server is too cute. my guilty pleasure is this fried peanut butter and banana sandwich (with a little touch of brandy in it!), it is so good that i gotta have this two days on a row. and the waitress was like, "so, why are you guys so stylish and how come your shirt fits so well?!" man, this restaurant together with whats just next to it - ACE HOTEL NYC and STUMPTOWN COFFEE is like the holy trinity. gee i love this place.
