Spotted On Leonard Street: Haab

Yesterday yours truly went on not one, but two walks. Why, you ask? Because I simply could not decide between going to Long Island City and knocking around one of my favorite streets: Grand. To this end I hustled out to Long Island City, looped back to Greenpoint for a quick restroom break and a glass of water and back out I went. It was at the intersection of Leonard Street and Grand Street that I spied with my Mexican food maven eye what you see above: Haab. Needless to say I entered this establishment without delay. I asked the very nice waitress and cook staff how long they have been open for business. The lattermost replied: “since Friday”. While the menu (which said waitress gave me— they do not have a take out menu— yet?) is hardly vegetarian friendly there are a few items to be had. And try them I will. If the staff I encountered today is in any way indicative of the quality of the food, methinks I am in for a real treat!

This marketing campaign (as spotted on the Crosstown Local) is pretty much spot on— except it isn’t the ridership of the G train that stinks: it’s the train itself. Those of you reading this who have ever gotten a fruitful snootful of the Nassau Avenue station (especially the Norman Avenue entrance) know all too well what I am talking about.

It would appear I am not the only person who is eager for the folks at Acapulco Deli & Restaurant to get back from vacation!
