"Good morning campers!", shouted @DuranDuran on the RV intercom waking everybody up. "We have a long day ahead of us in the big apple, the city that never sleeps. So let's get up and get going." Everyone slowly complied starting to get out of their sleeping areas on the RV and looking at the clock that said 6 AM. There was a two hour drive ahead of them from New Haven to New York, and they were all eager to get to this part of the trip. Many haven't seen the city in a long time and wanted to see the sights. About an hour later everyone had finally gotten out of bed, got ready in the RV park restrooms, and they were on the road again. @DuranDuran got back on the intercom, "Since we crossed pizza off the list and the pizza was surprisingly good, we will be experiencing fine NYC dining tonight. Many restaurants in NYC date back to the 1800s and have catered to thousands of celebrities over the years. Tonight we will be going to The Palm on 50th street and 8th Avenue. Remember it's a grid system with numbered streets and avenues so all you need to do is add or subtract to get around in Midtown. There is a lot to see and do so we are getting a head start. For lunch there are thousands of options from deli sandwiches, ramen shops, halal food carts, and so much more." @DuranDuran continued on rattling off facts about New York City for the next two hours until they finally arrived at the RV park in Jersey City, just across the river from New York. "Alright everyone, we will be taking the subway system to get in and out of the city. I have printed out subway maps for everyone. And the subway is easy to use, you only need a smartphone with a wallet app or a tappble credit or debit card.", @DuranDuran continued. "I'm done talking for now and you all know the schedule so let's get going."

The group took the path train to 33rd street and from there each group split up some continuing uptown on the BDFM trains and some getting out at 33rd street opting to walk to their first stops. @tj_PE and their group arrived on the F train at Rockefeller Plaza station. "This station is disgusting", said @tj_PE as she saw a giant rat cross the station platform.

@txjennah PE was standing on the platform at Rockefeller Plaza waiting for the downtown train to go to the meet up. They we're trying to keep a low profile and blend in but it was harder with the pandemic and the subways less crowded than usual. They we're dressed in the their tactical fatigues as instructed. Just then some rando came up to @txjennah PE brandishing a shiv, they asked, "You a cop ain't you, I hate cops." However they did not wait for a response and stabbed @txjennah PE in the chest before running away shouting "Fight the power!". @txjennah PE was lynched by the town via a deranged subway resident. Police were later called to the scene discovering a pair of strange sunglasses and headlamp. "Hey this looks like the ones from that photo that was sent out this morning", said the one detective to the other, "We better phone this into the FBI. It might be related."

@txjennah PE was lynched by the town, they were a criminal.

I can't believe I'm missing all this food conversation. But too busy to play.

• Never had a lobster roll
• Boston lobster I'm sure is legit. Boston mac and cheese is sus. Mac and cheese is a southern dish in my opinion.
• I love fishing. It's not about sport for me. It's about disconnecting and spending time in nature. So relaxing. The beer and fish are a bonus.

The FBI agent was sitting at their desk working another day on loan to the Cyber Division, still scouring the internet and media sources to try to identify the criminals involved in the capital riots. The Criminal Investigation Division has not had much activity in New York City due to the reduced occupancy of residents and commuters. Just then their phone rang, it was one of their contact's with the NYPD detective unit. Their contact got to the point, "I wanted to let you know we found one of the suspects that was involved in the recent New Haven bus attack deceased on a subway platform in Rockefeller Center. They were wearing the same clothes and had the same distinctive sunglasses and headlamp that was in the photos. Eager to get out of the office, the FBI agent said, "I'm on my way" and hung up the phone.

Meanwhile in the Red Hook Brooklyn IKEA, a group gathered in a van parked near the pier. “Congratulations on a job well done”, said the leader. “We will have time later to pour one out for our lost comrades, but we have another job to do tonight. I made a few contacts this morning and was able to secure some hands for the rest of the job. They shall be known as Zulu and Tao. Now let's go over the plan for tonight..." A few moments later, they all exited the van one at a time, making sure they weren’t followed or seen.

The foodies took the afternoon to recuperate from strange event that happened in fron of them this morning. It was a good reminder that although the city is impressive, it pays to be aware of your surroundings at all times. The groups took in many sights including the world's largest Macy’s store, Time Square, the World Trade Center, and everything in between. It finally came to 6 PM and they met at The Palm dressed in business casual attire. “Well here we all are,” said @DuranDuran, “Before we get started, I heard from @LyceeFruit PE who stayed with @MadamPirate PE at the hospital. They were released about an hour ago and will meet back up with us later tonight. Now, we have our own private room booked for tonight and should have a good time. The restaurant is well known for their steaks and seafood dishes but they have great salad and pasta dishes as well for those who are on a restricted diet. And be sure to try the wine as well."

After several hours of wining and dining, the group emerged from the restaurant. “I cannot believe you ate that whole porterhouse by yourself, @blybrook PE!”, exclaimed @tj_PE. “That was a very good meal and I hope you all enjoyed, now lets start heading back towards 6th Avenue, we should take the subway to the PATH train to get back to the RV.”, said @DuranDuran. They all started heading towards 6th avenue as a MTA bus drove past them to the 7th avenue stop. At which time, they felt like they have traveled back in time as they saw another group of criminals holding up the passengers on the bus, the driver appears to have been either killed or knocked out. They demanded everyone’s wallets and phones be put into their backpacks then darted off the bus towards the nearby 1 train downtown. Unfortunately the foodie group was in the wrong place at the wrong time once again. As @EyehatethePEexam pulled out their phone to dial 911, a gunshot rung out from one of the fleeing criminals causing chaos on the streets before any nearby police could arrive. @EyehatethePEexam was shot in arm very similar to @MadamPirate PE so that they could not continue the call. But in another strange turn of events, a doctor also happened to be in the crowd that started to form. "Somone call for an ambulance!" the doctor shouted! The doctor took off their tie and started to fashion a tourniquet using a pen in their pocket with the tie. Not much later FDNY paramedics arrived and started to give @EyehatethePEexam fluids and took them to the hospital.

@EyehatethePEexam was saved by the doctor.

Not playing/dead, but my opinion on lobster mac and cheese: no.

I don't like seafood with any cheese type of thing, except maybe a little parmesan on top if it's in a pasta. Makes my stomach do a queasy.

I had crab quesadillas over the weekend.
Would definitely do again.

I like crab wonton/crab rangoon. But it is not real cheese, and likely not real crab either. I had some with my Thai yesterday at lunch.

I'm with you. Not because it makes me queasy but because it seems to be a culinary cheat. Cheese on anything makes it better. I put cheese on fake crab-cakes (I was broke in my 20's and couldn't afford the real crab for crab cakes) and they were amazing. That would be true on real crab cakes, but the real crab cakes don't need the boost. Enjoy the flavor for what it is.

My state is allowing the "obese" and "morbidly obese" sign up for vaccines starting today. Never have I been so excited for my antiquated BMI to be above 30.

Maryland considers obesity to be a comorbidity and moves it up the priority list to "Phase 2".

/begin rant

While the scale says I'm obese, my waistline does not. Too much of the "weight" is muscle mass. Mrs Headge won't let me claim obesity. So I'm in the "Phase 3" Gen Pop group, which is really group 5. Of course Maryland is really bungling the vaccine rollout, so they might not get to my group until September 2022. minor sarcasm there, but even with the projected new increased allotsment in the next month, MC still won't get to Phase 1C for over two months.

*I don't mean to get off on a rant here, but the phase names are stupid. Montgomery County makes it even worse by adding subgroups. The county and state phase numbers don't line up! MC: don't do the phase 1a group 1 nonsense. It's looks like the messed up GD flight boarding groups. It reminds me of this K&P sketch:



The State and County use sequential numbers. If they did it straight up numbers then I'd be group 12, but I guess that looks bad and is too reflective of reality.

/rant over

Welcome aboard one and all on the EB Food Tour of the East Coast (because it's better than the West),

Maine lobstah is where it's at. jus' sayin'

Pretty much, yeah. Especially for cold water lobster.

However I will say that the best lobster I ever had was BBQ Galapagos lobster. They're warm water lobsters and huge! But you can only get it local so it probably doesn't count.

i wanna visit Maine some day!

I haven't been to Maine in 25 years. We were supposed to go last August... but someone on the other side of the world came in contact with the wrong bat.
In theory we're tryin again in August. But I'm not sure if that's going to happen.

I only had lobster roll once in Arizona.. n I never understood why its so popular...maybe I need to have a good one....

That's like trying to get a cheesesteak outside of the Deleware Valley and expecting something done well. Pro-tip: Don't.

By the time a lobster rolls to AZ, it might be a bit too dried out to enjoy?

or freezer burnt, or otherwise not fresh.

lobster rolls should never be hot. Bleck.

agreed

I actually did a Maine theme awhile back - it was great fun lol

It was. I regret that I did not live long enough to see the puffins.

I live in the landlocked South. I don't even remember what lobster tastes like.

It mostly tastes like butter

I can't say I obsess over lobster mac, but I don't generally eat just mac n' cheese... lobster definitely adds a unique flavor.

I'm inclined to agree. I've had lobster mac a few times. It wasn't worth the price when I had it outside NE.

Mac and cheese is a southern dish in my opinion.

Wisconsinites might strongly disagree with you.



The story is getting closer to Philly. @Dothracki PE I'm putting a lot of pressure on you to do this right
