I’ll be heading into Manhattan tomorrow to visit the Bernarducci Meisel Gallery<\/a> and, I hope, reach some sort of closure as far as those Sharon Moody paintings<\/a> are concerned. But while in town for the day, a guy’s got to eat, right? And if this guy’s got to eat in Manhattan, it’s going to be at Shopsins as often as possible.<\/p>\n

I’ve told you before<\/a> how much I love the place\u2014because of rather than spite of all those one-star Yelp reviews<\/a> that say things such as: “Incredibly rude. Incredibly ignorant. Incredibly sexist. Incredibly disgusting. Being called a c***sucker multiple times and told to ‘go f*** myself’ while I’m photographing on assignment for a very well regarded city food magazine at the cheese shop next door by a foul-mouthed old man and his idiot son is not my idea of a hip Lower East Side foodie experience.”<\/p>\n

Hey, they’ve never given me<\/em> any trouble.<\/p>\n

Anyway … I was checking out the insane menu<\/a> in preparation for tomorrow’s brunch, and saw the following image on their eclectic homepage<\/a>:<\/p>\n

So in addition to helping create amazing food, at least one Shopsin is some kind of a comics fan. Yet another reason I get a kick out of the place. <\/p>\n

So go ahead. Check Shopsins out. They won’t bite. (Though just maybe … I shouldn’t make any promises.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
