5 Photos from my NYC life (Hipsters, MSG, murals, and other things)



photo3

Here are some photo observations / comments from my daily NYC life, which is typically me going between Brooklyn (Williamsburg / Bushwick) and Manhattan. From vats of MSG on the street, to beautiful sunny days overlooking the East River atop the Williamsburg bridge… the variety present in 1 day in New York is astounding. So, straight from my iphone, some visual observations.

That, my friends, is a huge vat that once housed the wonder flavoring MSG. I think I got a headache and the sweats just walking by. I wonder if they’re sprinkling that on grass-fed beef? Ha. Chinatown / Soho-ish area.

The best tacos in NYC. Al Pastor = pork marinated in pineapple. Sustainably raised I’m sure??? Taqueria El Fogon. Bushwick.

  1. Hi, Randy.

    I can relate to this. I have not one, but two musician sons living in Brooklyn. Walking over the Brooklyn Bridge is the experience I most recommend to new visitors to NYC.

    I'll rely on you to make me sound informed when I talk to them on the phone.
