Tribeca

I have finally taken the time to get back to my exploring of Manhattan. Today's adventure took me to Tribeca.
From what I can discern, this fairly small neighborhood is made up of many, many restaurants - 52, according to the NFT guide book. I can attest to one of these dining meccas: Nobu's Next Door.





Nobu is a very high-end restaurant, where rumor has it, you put your name on a two to three month waiting list. Nobu's next door doesn't take reservations - you just show up. It was three years ago that we ate here and I can still remember the experience!

The mark of a restaurant that 'has made it' might be that there is no signage needed on the outside to "lure" people in. Everyone who needs to know, knows where it is.


One of the fun landmarks that can be found in Tribeca is the Ghostbuster's Firehouse. I had to get a photo!
And again, I never would have known this was here if I didn't have the NFT Guidebook, because there is nothing on the building to indicate what it is . . . so New Yorkish!


I did find one other reason for making the trip to Tribeca and that is the discovery of the Amish Market. There appears to be a wide variety of fresh food, as well as a cafe, and at reasonable prices! I wasn't hungry, so didn't stop to eat, but I would willingly come back to check it out later.
