The Times? That would be to wrap the fish in, right?

No - for the crossword puzzle, of course, you Philistine ;0)

Here's a suggestion that I didn't think of... Although it's not
technically BBQ.

How about Kalbi, Bulgoki and Sam-Gyup-Sal (Three Fat Layer Pork... less
known but awesome!) at a Korean place

Although the best korean is in Queens or Fort Lee, NJ. Kang Suh across
Macy's on Broadway isn't too bad. And it was the only place in
Manhattan that I could recall bringing hot lump right to your table.
You just can't go wrong grilling at your own table over Lump!

If you're going to the Big Apple, may I suggest that you skip the BBQ and
instead go to Katz's on Houston St. for a pastrami sandwich - you can get
BBQ anywhere, but ...

If you can't read, that'd be a good use for it.

I lived in Brooklyn 25 years (thank you). When my apartment building
started to get "diverse", the elevator all of a sudden became a rest
room, the walls were covered with graffiti and people were asked to
provide their wallets to strangers they met in the halls.

When my first kid was born, I escaped to New Jersey. My town is one of
those horrible "lilly white" places you read about. We don't lock our
doors, we respect our neighbors, we don't let our kids join gangs or
listen to 50 cent.

Getting back to NYC, the locals know where the safe areas are (although
plenty get mugged on Park Avenue too). Tourists sometimes stray into
wrong areas, so telling them to be on alert has nothing to do with
being racist. Like in any other town, a white person in a black area
can get in trouble just as much as a black in an all white
neighborhood.

I detest all of these ACLU types who frown upon lack of "minority
diversity". Take the D train to 205th street at midnight or else shut
the f- up.

LMAO! You actually claim to be from the city?

Q in the city...You can get good Q almost anywhere these days, why not try
something local?

My recommendations...

Lombardi's (the city = Manhattan) for a real pizza, thin, crisp crust, not
that doughy crap. 6 train downtown from Grand Central to Spring St. 2
blocks east.
Roosevelt Av in Queens from Woodside to Flushing. Take the 7 train out of
Grand Central and start in Woodside and continue through Jackson Hgts and
then Main St, Flushing and enjoy a trip that takes you from Ireland to
India, Phillipines, Colombia, Peru, Korea and China. You won't be sorry.
You can get street food like fire roasted corn and tamales in Jackson Hgts.
Frank's in Chelsea for a steak; damn good and not as pricey as Luger's and
with a good barroom to boot. A train to 14th, a block or so west and 2
blocks uptown.
Astoria for some down home Greek eats - 7 train to Queensboro Plaza, switch
to the N or W up to Ditmars Blvd. There's a really good Czech barroom that
serves good eats right at the bar too. I'll try to remember the name, but
like I said, it's a really good barroom.

BTW, the good Q in the city is in those neighborhoods where those who hate
the NY Times and colored people don't venture to.

I took the 'D' train on the IND up to the end of the line at 205th St.
during the late 50's at midnight and later, Mon thru Fri. Never had a
problem.
