New York New York Restaurant

The twin towers of the World Trade Center still stand under a starry sky — on the giant mural decorating a wall at New York New York. The other walls, clad with posters of Broadway shows such as Dancin‘, Sugar Babies, and Les Miserables, facsimiles of New York Times front pages, photo stills from feature […]

Crowds flock for the burgers, […]
