thanks a lot, dh. The service is really important. I really want to talk to this person. I am going to check menus. I’ll let you know where we go and give my 2 cent review. tks too Cgar.
“Also, one of their chefs left last year (or so) and opened a restaurant in TriBeCa, which I hear is also great: Locanda Verde.”
yes, yes LV is a good one.
the service at A Voce is DAMN good. The only problem is that it is a HUGE dining space, so it always seems to be half empty. not a problem for some though.
Gem, no. That is not what I am saying. I am saying that the US after WWII was powerful, super rich, a winner, and was in a position to be everywhere, market everywhere, and shape tastes. Maybe in 25 years, China will be more “out there” in the world cultural marketplace and people will develop a taste for Chinese opera, among other things.
oh yeah – and i always have a great time at that place A Voce right next to madison square park. although it’s typically filled with credit suisse douchebags
Gem, I guess I just wanted to make the point that after WWII, US had enough power and money to export itself everywhere and that shaped the world’s taste for culture.
wow, I totally disagree with that statement
so are you saying that only countries that have $ at any given time are able to get their art exported and therefore loved and sold in great numbers?????????????????????????????????????????

Biff, not if another hottie is nearby and ready to roll. patience is for when there aint no other options
“I can’t believe it took this long to bring this DeLay business to a close.”
One must be patient when trying to close DeLay.
“i always have a great time at that place A Voce”
I concur with DH on this. Had a great meal here not long ago.

g10, that theory will be put to the test as China is now playing that role as post WWII role US did as CREDITOR to the world.
