Lucky us to be at BXL Cafe on a Friday, as that’s when the day’s special is fish and chips ($27).  Tender fish chunks deep fried in a batter and served with fries. The only thing that could have made it better was malt vinegar, as I had learned to eat it in London!

We slipped through the parking lot from 43 to 44th Street to Hudson Theatre, where Danial Radcliffe, Jonathan Groff (Hamilton’s King George), and Lindsay Mendez starred in Steven Sondheim’s Merrily We Roll Along, the show that originally flopped and ended partnership of Sondheim and Harold Prince, director. It’s now a hit.

I recommend both.
