Nestled into Fort Tryon Park, which I happen to hold as New York's most beautiful park, is the New Leaf Cafe:
After hearing nothing but good things, Ms. Dish and I had wanted to come here for a long time. We finally made it on Sunday, and we were not disappointed! Fort Tryon is home to such beautiful scenery, including forests, gardens, cliff overlooks, views of the Hudson River, and of course the famous Cloisters Museum. What I like most, however, is the feeling I get when I step into the park and think I've stumbled on this incredible secret place. The New Leaf seems to compliment all this perfectly in its own way. Oh and did I mention it was none other than the incomparable Bette Midler who led restoration of the building through her organization, the New York Restoration Project?
It was at brunch at the New Leaf that we engaged our new Spoon #8:
Spoon 8 is marked "ONEIDA 18/10 BAGUETTE", and also has the marking "5-10" stamped near the bowl.
Here it is in a publicity shot, playing Twister with its friends:
Some people are so keen on the Oneida baguette, they take one with them wherever they go - like sous chef Richie Nakano!
This picture is from a very interesting article that looks into chefs and their tattoos. Worth checking out!
How about the 5-10 near the bowl? A date maybe? Yet another mystery...
