In search of Junior’s cheesecake
A few weekends ago Ryan and I drove to New York City to
visit Noel and Sonja Chevere who were there from California to visit
family. So, in essence we imposed on
their family time for the weekend, and I don’t reject a moment.
Noel, my friend I used to like, walked me through the
streets of New York City until my legs were about to fall off. I still look at
the map to trace all of our steps and it amazes me that while we were walking for
hours, we only walked a couple miles at the most a day. I experienced the New
York subway, did all the touristy things: Time Square, Ground Zero, Rockefeller
Center, just to name a few.
My most memorable stop was to Grand Central Terminal,
affectionately known to me as the place where the animals emerged in the movie
Madagascar. I was in awe at this beautiful train station. I marveled at the
clock in the center, and the stairs that came up from every direction, and the
beautiful chandelier in the station; things that seemed out of place in a train
station, but yet completely fit in here with the hurry and bustle.
Anyway, we rushed to the Grand Central Terminal because
it was the closest place to where we were, in Greenwich Village, to get Junior’s
cheesecake. Now, let’s talk a little about cheesecake, you have cheesecake, you
have Jello like stuff they call cheesecake, and then you have CHEESECAKE. I
mean baked, creamy, stick to the fork, cheesecake. Oh my! I wasn’t disappointed
with Junior’s at all. As a matter of fact, I was delighted to hear that they
ship cheesecake, as it was absolutely worth all the trouble we went through to
get it.
Next time you're in New York, please stop and have some Junior's cheesecake. And be sure to let me know what you think. Next month, I'm in search of a Philly steak n' cheese!
