I just returned from my first trip to New York City. It was an exciting place to visit, with an endless list of things to do. I enjoyed the museums, the New York Philharmonic in Central Park, the Broadway shows, and even the subway. Perhaps, though, one of my favorite times was my lunch at ESPN Zone. I walked in and asked to be seated for lunch and the hostess asked me a question I have never been asked at a restaraunt, "Would you like a recliner? They are really comfortable." "A recliner, in a restaraunt," I said, "well, of course I would like a recliner."
The next hour and a half was phenominal. I sat in an amazingly comfortable recliner, with a tray that covered my lap, sitting right in front of two gigantic TV's one showing ESPN and another showing ESPN2 surrounded by a dozen smaller TV's with other sports programing. I don't even remember if the food was any good, because it didn't really matter. "This," I thought, "is how every restaraunt should be."
Yes, New York City is a special place, it is unlike any other city in my experience, but I will always remember that Monday lunch at ESPN Zone- if only it had been football season!
