This afternoon I had the Issan and Eggplant Laos. Fully agree with you that the Issan was spectacular. Happily, the EL was its equal. Worth mentioning that at 2:30 PM on a Monday the place was empty.
Also, it is quite interesting that two such discerning palates as you and Robert Sietsema disagree so sharply on the pastrami.
-Cosm in LA has the most immersive TV situation I’ve ever seen.
-In New York, my favorites are Rocco’s, Blondie’s, and FancyFree—good atmosphere, good TVs, and good enough food.
-Stout across from MSG, the Ainsworths, and the halls (Smithfield Hall, etc.) are reliably large watching venues.
-Would love to hear more recs from Ryan and the community!
Thanks for the “Rhapsody in Blue”…love it.
BTW…the Guinness at the new Tracks is excellent…almost as good as in Dublin but not quite!
