I have been home in Brooklyn the past few weeks.

Brooklyn? Why the hell would anybody want to live there. Oh yeah, I rememember now. The bread. They have great bread there. Makes sense to me....???????

Actually, its the Egg Creams at Hinches that keep me here. :-)

Egg Creams? Let me tell you what happened when I was a little kid. We were living in West Virgina at the time and a friend of my father's, Henry, came out from Brooklyn or some other NY place to visit. They were at a roadside cafe and Henry asked the waitress at the counter to make him an egg cream. She looked confused so Henry told her the ingredients for the egg cream. Then Henry made the mistake of going to the bathroom. My father then told the cook how to prepare the egg for the egg cream. When Henry returned to the counter, he found his glass of "egg cream".....with a fried egg lying over the top of the glass.

Hey I lived in Bay Ridge and went to Fort Hamilton High School. My favorite is Double Cheeseburger, Onion Ring's and Vanilla Shake at Green Tea Room 86th street. I thought EVERYONE was from Brooklyn? I now live out 'west' in NJ!
