“Market Club - If you’re looking for a breakfast dive, you’ve found it. Standard breakfast fare with a few Asian touches (fried rice and fried eggs anyone?). You won’t find a better divey yet friendly place located in a produce warehouse yard anywhere.”

Sweet! After Eddie’s closed I didn’t think there was anywhere to get fried rice with breakfast anymore.

“Tower Cafe-If you’ve got friends in from out of town and want to take them someplace hip, but not too hip, nice but not too nice, not cheap but not too expensive, Tower Cafe always comes to mind, and usually winds up being your dining choice.”

Totally true. Haven’t been there in too long. Who wants to come visit?

Amazing photos, as always from The Big Picture. The Wall Street Journal also has a new photo blog.

Let me bullet them for you:

Sending children out of the kitchen

hilker:

White House upbeat on economy, defends AIG move even though Stocks tumble after government bailout of AIG.

[the great part is that these headlines appeared right next to each other on yahoo.com.]

I may be way off but isn’t it possible for the White House to be right in the long run but the stock markets to be right in the short run? Or even vice-versa? Even if not in this case, there is way too little nuance in the national discourse. Nuance, people! (It is a funny juxtaposition, though.)
