Ordered the lamb on rice for 10 bucks cuz I’mbroke and my credit card is maxed out this guys a king and loads up my plate enough for me to turn it into 2 meals I go and sit on the steps outside next to that expensive vegan place across the street with the beautiful openpatio and listen to the live music while I ate this beautiful halal and that was a pretty good night out if you ask meSo I go back there today for lunch cuz I’m still broke staying at the ymca like a gay hustler in the 80s and I got 10 bucks on me cuz I did a job for my friend hanging pictures on the wall and he actually paid me pretty good like 40 an hour cuz he’s a friend but then I had to pay the storage facility that’s keeping all my stuff so all I had left was a tenner Anyway I originally went to ihop cuz I saw an ad that said they had a lunch special with 2 eggs hash browns and bacon or sausages for 6 bucks but it ended up being from 4 years ago so I walked a few blocks down 1st ave to these guys and got the same as last time, lamb on rice for 10 bucks and it was a different guy today cuz it was lunchtime but they must be cousins or something cuz he had the same good vibes and filled the plate almost overflowing and I gave him the 10 cash feeling a bit stingy for not giving a tip cuz you know it’s New York and you know what he does he says grab yourself a drink man you want a coke Pepsi And i don’t normally drink soda on account of my health but today I did cuz you don’t turn down a free soda. Well maybe I looked a bit pathetic or hungry but man these guys are the best just if your eating right away tell them not to put the lid on cuz then half the sauce gets wasted on the lid - le Mat Gordon
