Avenue of the Americas? OH - you mean Sixth Avenue!!! We native New Yawkahs don't know what the Avenue of the Americas is...but we know Sixth Avenue! I guess everybody needs to go to Rockefeller Center, and places like that...those are still enjoyable. I have heard that Steakhouse Row no longer is ... I know when they closed Danny's Hideaway I wanted to cry...that was one of my all time favorite places. For the food, of course, but also because it had been such a great place...there was never a time I was in there that there wasn't a celebrity of some kind there, too, and no fuss was ever made about anyone. When I worked at Conde Nast we had lunch at Danny's at least once a week... and somehow I usually wound up there for dinner at least one night of every weekend, too. There are other great restaurants in the City.......many owned by gangsters, of course, and those are the best ones! Any kind of ethnic food you can think of, there is somewhere to go to get it; and the shopping, ohhhhhhhh, the shopping..........be still my heart! But the dog show?
