  1. “I went to Al di la and let me tell you this. Maybe it is good to all of you folks from Ohio. But to Those from NYC who like our food to taste like it is from Authentic Europe no way. I would take Vinny’s on smith street over AL Di LA and PO is better also.”

    Take it up with Zagat then.

    None of the places you mention are anywhere near as good as Al Di La.

  3. Po and Grocery? Are you serious? Mario Batali pulled out of Po becuase it sucked so hard.

    Blue Ribbon and Blue Ribbon Sushi, not to mention Al di La are far superior to either of those.

    There are also about 100 restaurants on 5th to choose from vs. 20 on Smith.

    If you don’t see empty storefronts, you are not opening your eyes.

    Nearly every business on Smith has opened a 2nd on 5th in the past 2 years. I’d say that says 5th is where the money is…showers or no showers.

    I happen to think the scruffy, dirty ones are hot myself.

  4. I don’t see any storefront closed on Smith. The only stores closed are those being fixed or not being rented maybe used as rentals. But the food on smith is much better than 5th ave. PO, and Grocery are wonderful. I can not think of great when i think of 5th ave. Plus i like the people on smith much better. All you get on 5th is low life looking people that look as if they have not showered in a month.
