There was a Runyonesque feel to the last day at Tad’s Steakhouse in Times Square. Guys and Dolls, the musical, was based on Damon Runyon's characters from twenties and thirties.

Tad’s broiled their first meals here in NYC in 1955 where a guy could buy a doll a steak for a buck. Riese Restaurants who owned the limping chain, decided to stop operating in the city. There is one Tad's left in San Francisco.

But last Sunday night, dreamers, lovers, and out-of-towners in fur waited in line for one final nicely nicely priced steak. It was no longer a buck, but way less than a bushel and a peck (about $10 dollars).

Good afternoon! Wishing you a happy Wednesday, January 8th, 2020 from all of us at Viewing NYC!

Here's what the weather looks like in the City right now.

Since Di Fara Pizza opened in Midwood, Brooklyn, in 1965, owner Domenico "Dom" DeMarco has literally made nearly every single pizza that has come out of the oven. Constantly rated as one of, if not the best pizzeria in all of New York City, DeMarco has certainly made a name for himself and his pies. In this excellent profile video from The New Yorker, hear all about DeMarco's approach to pizza, direct from the chef himself.
