A lot of 40+ people won't go, we need to sit. Prices are a little high. Also, the pics on the menu do not look appetizing. Not enough sides. Not enough variety.

How does the "rare only" thing work, because if its served on a "sizzling cast iron" it's not going to stay rare for very long. Does that mean I can let it cook more on the platter if I want? This is an important question. If I don't like a rare steak then I don't like it. Don't try to make me eat it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-51170797859180202862017-02-23T14:16:01.748-05:002017-02-23T14:16:01.748-05:00I remember when Ippudo on 4th Ave. first opened.

I explained it to her and her incredulous reaction was "They're waiting 2 hours on line to eat n.o.o.d.l.e.s ?<br />PS: If you like noodles, there's a place on East 5th street, a couple of doors west of the 9th Precinct. They make the noodles inhouse, and you can watch the noodle-maker through the window. The name is Sobakoh. Been there a few times and always liked it.
