ragged fun

A very slow tuesday night in lower manhattan. Bar hopping, feeling really restless and can't stay put for more than a drink at a time. In the search of a conclusive way to end the night we staggered upon Mars and yes, it was a planet of it's own.
Dark narrow space loaded with boxes of beer along one wall and a bar along the other. Quite soon we figured why the end of the counter occupied by us had been empty till then. Barstools were held together by the holy spirit and the toilets where 'trapeze skills come quite handy' were right by.
All and all the place was fun and rowdy, exactly what one needs sometimes to take the edge off...

Nolita gem

Slouching my way through the streets of Nolita, trying to find something refreshing for lunch I suddenly spotted a view that instantly took me back to the streets of Newtown, Sydney. Passing by this cozy rugged inviting little lounge and a shining smile of the cute guy working ( I never got his name) made me go around the block and back there.
Excellent fresh food for a hot summer day, cool drinks and great atmosphere definitely makes this place worth a visit on your new york trip.
You'll also get a peak of local artist's painting and tips for other great places around.
For address and full menu check out their website and go get a piece of surf to your N.Y day.
