chipotle meatballs!

I love Polsers! I lived in Copenhagen for a year about a decade ago and ate polsers for dinner about every other night. (yeah, I know)
The best part, though is that the traditional Danish way of eating them on the street is that the bun and the polser are served and eaten separately! (You can see them separated in the cart menu pics in the article above) One in each hand- bite the polser, bite the bun, one after the other. This never ceased to baffle and amaze me. I had to stop myself from walking up to people and suggesting that they place their polser in their bun and eat them in one happy union. Copenhagen is filled with lots of these weird little intricate oddities and thats what makes it a great place.

Anyone know a good place between 14th and Canal? (And please don't say Pinche, which is really overrated)

As an architect, I feel for you with the idiocy of your 'masons'. Unfortunately, skilled labor pretty much doesn't exit anymore, much less an actual mason. So, when you try to make something that is true old world construction like a stone oven, they're totally lost and set things on fire. That's pretty much every day of my life.
Pizza looks good.

There is soul in pizza- especially at Sal & Carmines!

Suck it, hippies.

That's a weird looking crab! Definitely not a blue. Apparently it's a Liocarcinus vernalis (?)- anyone know the vernacular name for it or seen ones like them off Long Island? According to Wikipedia
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Liocarcinus_vernalis.jpg ) they are native to Belgium!

And I second kitchengeeking: got to catch them with chicken necks and string- followed by the Old Bay and beer

Oh no! Sal (Carmine, too!) was such a nice man- it took a while, but once he recognized you he always had a friendly story or a wave when you passed by the store. He will be greatly missed. And I've always said that Sal & Carmine's is the quintessential New York pizza. Not fancy, not gourmet, but pure greatness. Sal & Carmine's is and always will be the best in NY. RIP Sal!
