W42ST Daily 5/28/2020
Did that subject line whet your appetite this Thursday morning? It was originally used by our friends up the road at The Westside Rag last week. A reader had discovered some old menus. I love their quirky stories.
But it got me thinking … Where did I put that menu from The Market Diner? Well, I found it. And I took it home for a quick photoshoot.
And because it’s throwback Thursday, and because I’m kind of nostalgic, I’ve got two delights for you.
1. Get your copy of the Market Diner menu (with two bonus pages of their specials).
2. Read all about the history of this iconic New York Diner (it’s #TBT at W42ST after all).
And if you don’t want your favorite Hell’s Kitchen places to be replaced by a Starbucks, use our Hell’s Kitchen is OPEN! list and keep supporting our local businesses. New additions today are ‘ritas, B-Side Pizza, and Totto Ramen. Go feed your face.

Then Randy Rainbow discovered a guy who he thinks can make us a vaccine.
So when this genius works out the vaccine, it’s all down to W42ST, right?
