They've got both the gold and the red, as well as other brands such as PG Tips which I think is the most popular (although not as good as Yorkshire in my opinion!). It's wonderful to have this just a block away from home.SusanKnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1432673176555220097.post-34140720109809030292010-03-21T08:21:27.924-04:002010-03-21T08:21:27.924-04:00@Miami Danny...I try, I try.

It's so great to see our 'hood get some virtual ink.<br /><br />I wanted to entreat you to try a very un-gourmet-looking joint that nonetheless has amazing coffee . . . Hilltop Grocery between E Broadway and Henry. I was forced to start going there when my preferred bodega closed.

Good Six Point on tap, and our meal is complete.<br /><br />*A mistaken order at R&V awhile back has me now ordering the tofu banh mi almost exclusively. I don't think I would have ever considered trying a tofu sandwichC Lambnoreply@blogger.com
