If you have first hand experience, do you know if they have a menu in english? Looks soooo good... Sat Sep 01 16:43:51 -0700 2007 15635 ChristineR 1 2904071 Didn't he go to the M&I Russian Deli? Sat Sep 01 22:03:36 -0700 2007 2903684 10255 Gary Soup 2 2904161 Yes, that's exactally where he went. Would love to find a way to get out there, it looked fantastic! Sun Sep 02 01:00:13 -0700 2007 2904071 23858 Honeychan 3 2904314 D train to Ocean Park? Looks like about a 1/4 mi. walk on my map. Sun Sep 02 06:58:30 -0700 2007 2904161 10255 Gary Soup 4 2905952 Q or B train to Ocean Parkway or Brighton Beach. It's only a few blocks away from either station. The D leaves you in Coney Island. Mon Sep 03 05:54:31 -0700 2007 2904314 11701 MrsT 5 2906076 You are probably right. I don't live in NY and was relying on a faulty memory and equally faulty map (Microsoft Streets & Trips, which is spotty in its subway station coverage). Mon Sep 03 07:14:48 -0700 2007 2905952 10255 Gary Soup 6 2906173 Just to make you feel better... the D used to run the route that the B now does. They were switched. Your memory is just several years out of date and not "faulty" at all. Except, of course, that (as corrected above) it's Ocean Parkway, not Ocean Park :-) Mon Sep 03 08:06:15 -0700 2007 2906076 11394 Steve R 7 2906301 At least I didn't refer to it as the IND "D" Line ;-) Mon Sep 03 08:55:59 -0700 2007 2906173 10255 Gary Soup 7 2906768 I remember when the M train ran there too...and my husband still refers to the trains as IND & BMT & IRT's :) Mon Sep 03 12:38:00 -0700 2007 2906173 11701 MrsT 8 2911135 I also remember when the QB and the QJ ran on that line. I may have mentioned this elsewhere, but I also remember that subway and pizza slice prices have stayed fairly close to each other over the years. When I started riding the subway both were 15 cents. Over the years the IND and BMT lines and train designations have gotten pretty much mixed up. The IRT has a narrower gauge. Not that anybody asked. The thing about M&I is you have to be pretty aggressive to get served. The competition is ruthless. http://petercherches.blogspot.com Tue Sep 04 20:23:12 -0700 2007 2906768 10736 Peter Cherches 1 2904537 I think you are referring to Cafe Glechik on Coney Island Ave. It is very good... Sun Sep 02 09:18:18 -0700 2007 2903684 13537 Dogstar 2 2904615 You might be right. I didn't see the episode, but I remember an excerpt or a review that mentioned M & I (and I'm not sure they even have sit-down service or a menu). Did AB and Zim go to Cafe Glechik? Sun Sep 02 09:58:43 -0700 2007 2904537 10255 Gary Soup 3 2904919 Before the "surreal nightlife" segment they went to Glechik... They also went ti M&I (although that might have been during Zim's show). Sun Sep 02 13:12:40 -0700 2007 2904615 13537 Dogstar 4 2908920 Tony went to Cafe Gletchik with his russian friends and Zim went to M&I with his childhood friend. Tue Sep 04 09:48:29 -0700 2007 2904919 12766 welle 3 2906927 M&I does have sit-down option, though it is cafeteria-style. It's on the 2nd floor -- both indoor and outdoor sitting available. Mon Sep 03 14:15:24 -0700 2007 2904615 50757 genya 1 2909543 M & I -- otherwise known as the International. Few blocks from the subway stop. I don't remember if the menus were in English Tue Sep 04 12:40:13 -0700 2007 2903684 18351 Hanachan
