This Notting Hillbillies thing is nice -- one Dave never plays.

I hadn't realized the Seinfeld and Vega diners were one & the same.

That's an interesting bit of trivia, did Rob say so explicitly or were you reading into it?

he said it explicitly. "Monks Restaurant" (as it is known on the show) is actually "Tom's Restaurant" and is at 112th & B'way, sez Rob -- can we get a confirmation from Gaz, perhaps?

I've heard that.  But I've never gone there myself.  I'm not a UWS kinda guy.
