    Toronto

    Korean Grill House - 214 Queen St. West
    Little India - 255 Queen St. West
    Terroni - 720 Queen St. West

    All three within 1 mile of each other. Within 5 miles I could probably list 10X the restaurants.
    To quote the 10C from Newsletter #8: "Please understand we have a lot of members and it is very hard to please everybody. If you are one of those unhappy people...please call 1-900-IDN-TCAR."

    i can do that. :lol:

    I get foriginalsin's point but I'm pretty sure I can too.

    my point is....

    everything in NY can be found outside of NY, however, alot of new yorkers (not all) like to believe new york is the center of the universe.

    new york, LA....those places do nothing for me.

    Little India is indian food, not indian-chinese food. Its a different type of cuisine.

    No argument from me. I am a lifelong suburbanite. I like having a yard and a driveway. Spend all day in the city and look forward to escaping it at 5pm.

    Toronto

    :? There's a 3 square mile section of Queens that has more ethnicities than any other place in the world.

    Not a competition, but let's get fact right.

    Love Toronto. One of my favorite cities to visit. Always a good time.
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    As is Toronto. Boston, on the otherhand, is just a "hub" of the universe.

    And the mayor of Wallace, Idaho apparently thinks his city is the center of the universe.

    For the record Opinions are not Facts... Facts are Facts...

    oh and also your fact is not a fact

    Los Angeles and Houston are more diverse than NYC...



    also... I can get all those things you mention within a mile radius in Natick, MA


    i like NYC... to visit

    NYC doesn't need to make that claim. We couldn't care less. Toronto, Boston or Wallace can have that title.

    Just as long as everyone knows what The Garden, The Stadium and The City means. ;)

    :lol: I have to admit - that was a joke. But, I'm sure I could find 10 places in NYC that does wings as well or better. But, no, you got me there. I don't have one off the top of my head. But, just as sure that it's correct. I'm sure someone from the original Buffalo wings has passed it down to someone who's made his/her way to NYC. That's the beauty of it. Oops!!! :oops: Nevermind. We suck. You can't find anything you'd like here. Stay away. We suck!

    That is true. Wikipedia says so: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queens

    "Queens is the most ethnically diverse urban area in the world with a population of over 2.2 million, 46% of whom are foreign-born, representing over 100 different nations and speaking over 138 different languages."

    I had no idea!

    And I'm still hoping this rumor remains just a rumor. I have a commitment on 9/29 which will prevent me from seeing this show and I will be a teeny bit bummed if I miss it.

    Queens is one of the 5 boroughs of NYC. That's the point if we were talking overall city, it's not even a competition. I'm talking about 1 section of it. Remember, if NYC's boroughs (counties) were split into their own cities, Brooklyn would be the 3rd largest (Don't you remember your Welcome Back Kotter!?) and Queens the 4th largest populations in the country. Then, add in The Bronx, Manhattan and Staten Island, and :shock: that's The CITY. That's a lot of freaking people in a very small area.....

    Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens and Staten
    From the Battery to the top of Manhattan
    Asian, Middle-Eastern and Latin
    Black, White, New York you make it happen

    Brownstones, water towers, trees, skyscrapers
    Writers, prize fighters and Wall Street traders
    We come together on the subway cars
    Diversity unified, whoever you are
    We're doing fine on the One and Nine line
    On the L we're doin' swell
    On the number Ten bus we fight and fuss
    'Cause we're thorough in the boroughs and that's a must
    I remember when the Duece was all porno flicks
    Running home after school to play PIX * 1
    At lunch I'd go to Blimpies down on Montague Street
    And hit the Fulton Street Mall for the sneakers on my feet
    Dear New York I hope you're doing well
    I know a lot's happen and you've been through hell
    So, we give thanks for providing a home
    Through your gates at Ellis Island we passed in droves
