So we found ourselves in the West Village this sunny Sunday morning, and decided it was the perfect time to check out the Grey Dog Cafe, which the hubby informed me was "the place to brunch in Manhattan." Despite the fact that he used to live in this neighborhood, he'd never been there before, and it seemed the perfect suggestion to fight off the Sunday hangover headaches... Most of the other places in the area weren't opened yet at 10:30am, so we were happy to see the Grey Dog already bustling. From the front it looked like a place that would fit in perfectly...

Doma, Grey Dog Coffee, and more Grey Dog Coffee: I feel like I'm preggers
hanks to everyone for pre-ordering t-shirts! I guess all I had to do to get that rolling was...tell people it existed. I extended the pre-order until early May because otherwise I'll be stuck with a crapload of shirts at finals time. Which isn't cool. In this case, I'll be mailing the shirts from home in NJ and not NYC, although I'd still come to NYC for fooding and...um, actual things to do, which don't really exist in suburbia.]

The Sandwiches are Popular at The Grey Dog's Coffee
On Friday, I met Kirk for lunch. We met down by Bleecker street. On the subway ride over I pondered, ever so slightly, where it was that we'd eat when I arrived. A few days earlier I'd taken Patty and Dan to Shopsin's for their first time. Kirk's already been to Shopsin's so we wouldn't eat there. And The Pearl Oyster Bar is too expensive, though I've yet to try their fried oyster roll.

I love Grey Dog's Coffee, I really do, but I wish they'd lay off the Lilith Fair music in the morning. It pains me to be reminded before I've had my morning coffee that while I have to go be a day laborer at the cubicle farm, some crunchy nugget gets to make her living warbling about how she moved to Florida when she was eighteen. Where is the justice?

The stretch of Carmine Street between Bleecker and 7th Avenue evokes the main drag of a college town. Storefronts sell rare vinyl, guitars, used books, and Tibetan jewelry. The Grey Dog's Coffee is right at home in this atmosphere, with its blackboard menu, gargantuan Rice Krispie treats and proximity to the "Unoppressive, Non-Imperialist Bargain Book Store."
