V Cafe-- hidden gem, best letter restaurant of them all
Someone on another thread referred to it as a "hole in the wall place with good food." I want to add that the food is much better than good. V is tiny, non-descript and doesn't take itself seriously. Park between 97 and 98 near Mt. Sinai. The manager (owner?) is extremely polite and a hard worker. When I asked him to hold the onions, he insisted on my substituting something else (his forte is custom sandwiches). Pastas were freshly made, delicious. Excellent Pesto/Salmon Fillet sandwich lightly pressed reminded me of a gourmet sandwich I once ate years ago in an upscale restaurant in LA. In other words, this is great food and reasonably priced. No desserts available when I came, but I did spring for a 2.50 12 oz cappucino. This guy deserves some business and he isn't going to get it if you just look at the store from the outside or inside. Enjoyed it more than U.
