Gray’s Papaya, NYC

That picture says it all.

Not much more needs to be written about the magic of Gray’s Papaya; their last remaining stand is on the corner of Broadway and West 72nd St., and you can’t help but be pulled in by the glow of their lights and smell of grilling hot dogs if you’re in the area. Popped in last week after a night of drinking with some old friends...

The one thing that has changed though is the prices. When I moved to NYC in 1996, their “Recession Special” was two dogs with the toppings of your choice and a drink for $1.99. Now? It was $4.95 for one dog and a drink...

As always, I went with their namesake, of course...

And as always, it was delicious! The frankfurter was perfectly grilled to get that snap you expect, slathered with onion sauce and a touch of mustard, both still free.

They do charge for other toppings now, though...

(Look, I love mayonnaise, but who puts it on a hot dog? And for fifty cents?!)

Three dogs and a drink will set you back $9.95, which isn’t too bad in the grand scheme of things here in Manhattan, but I can’t help but think back to “the good ‘ol days” whenever I eat here these days.

Putting current prices aside, Gray’s Papaya is a Big Apple institution and can’t be missed when you’re on the Upper West Side. A true taste of New York!

@skelenova turns out I was your Secret Santa in the #Riseathon Discord's Gift Exchange, and like always, I have the tendency to give you more than one gift instead of just sticking to just one. You've mentioned that you would like to see hurt/comfort, taking care of plants, baking together, just chilling out/vibing, and you've also mentioned that you wanted your gift to revolve around Rise Donnie.

Third gift is Leo and Donnie chilling out on the rooftops of New York City while arguing about pizza.

“My attire is always vintage inspired, even if all of the pieces aren’t always vintage. Here I’m wearing a blazer from Kirrin Finch, trousers from Banana Republic some years back, a YSL silk necktie that belonged to my father, tie clip and pocket square from an antique shop in Black Mountain, NC, and fedora from a vintage shop in Asheville, NC. The pocket watch was an Etsy purchase and my shoes are Italian, handmade in the 60s. My attire is meant to evoke the feeling of another time — nothing specific, just vaguely nostalgic, landing somewhere between 20s and late 1950s. I’m inspired by classic dress, a style of dress that has previously been reserved mainly for men…and have spent a lot of time learning sartorial rules that I’ve learned to joyfully break.”

The best kept Art Nouveau theater in the United States is this one: The New Amsterdam Theatre in NYC built 1902-1903. It was designed by the architecture firm Hertz and Tallant. It is the oldest operating.
