My favorite is Nutz over Choclate, is that ok with you? I tried Dulche de LEche and didn't like it, but most people on the boards say they love it. I thought it was too sweet. I also like Smores, so they taste a little marshmallowy. I like Lemon Zest, but they are pretty sweet, too.

only two hours! It only takes a little longer than that for me to get to NYC, I would double my travel time yeah, get hubby to go too! tell him that you are DYING to go back to NYC! It is ok to meet people from the interent in public places, especially when it is nowhere around where you live! Maybe you can work on him if we do get a summer thing together. Luckily my BF is open to this sort of thing. One of his exgirlfriends in college he met over the internet. And, we have spent weekends on getaways with people on his forums. They have one huge get together once every fall, and there are THOUSANDS of people that go from all over the country and some from Canada. A couple of the people live right in our area and we hang out with them every couple of weekends. Others that live in the NY/PA area we see every couple of months. not, trying to pressure you , though... Oh, and I am not an insane Eagles fan, I have to confess that I have barely watched any games this season, been to busy at nights and on weekends, and I have been prioritizing other things first. And I never discriminate based on football affiliation! That would just be plain silly, seeing how I know barely anything about it (but I am learning!)

I would love to come too!
I am very impressed with your penchant for Irish restaurants too! I had the yummiest smoked salmon at home over Christmas, its just so more-ish though!
Nel- where will you be in Astoria? I lived at 28-19 46th St for a summer, it was near Steinway (sp?) on the G train I think. BF lived in Sunnyside in Queens- 47-49 48th St, NY always makes me nostalgic for that time. (1997)

I'm going to be on Ditmars Ave., like 4 blocks from Steinway!!! So funny that you lived so close!! Hey, since you know the neighborhood so well, why don't you drop on by and we can compare traditional Irish fare with Irish-American?? We'll set a place for you!!

OK now THAT sounds like fun!! Sample tasting luna bars!! What could be better??
As for the sense of smell, it gets overwhelmed by the restaurant atmosphere, with all the cooking, preparing and cleaning going on! If I get overpowered by a smell tho, I'll usually stick my nose into a glass of water or something and take deep breaths, and that usually calms it down!
Too bad we don't have a biigger group, we could get sponsorship...! The NY Meeting, brought to you by... LUNA!

I would soo love to come. I reckon I will make NY in the next 18 months or so (I was there summer of 97 and for short return trips in 1999 and 2002) If I get there I will expect you ALL to show up and show me a good time.
Nelly- your smoked salmon should come with lettuce, tomato and wedges of lemon and brown soda bread and butter....mmmm!
OK guys, I had better plan this year's holiday first!
