Food places actually shown on Google Maps.

I was just looking at a Google map for Wavery Pl and Perry St link

I find it funny that it actually has labels for Magnolia Bakery and The Bitter End. I also see a label for Lombardi's, Fraunces Tavern. Mysteriously, none for Shake Shack.

maportofu: YOU RULE! I had never, ever noticed that before on gmaps. Wow. Maybe Magnolia because it's such a tourist trap for SATC lovers? The others all have history on their side (though the current location of Lombardi's is not the original, nor is that operation's history unbroken). I poked around in Brooklyn quickly, looking for obvious inclusions; Luger isn't there, nor is Di Fara or Junior's. Trying to think offhand what else might be listed in BK, but can't think of anything else old/touristy, so maybe they haven't added Brooklyn food landmarks yet.

Thanks for the shout out. Google wonders never cease.
