Yes, that is a Tom & Jerry in a carnival glass Tom & Jerry mug. Also a beef on weck. It seems anymore you can get good beef lots of places but the rolls always come up short in some way. I like caraway so I expect to have at least equal amounts of caraway and salt. Not gonna quibble about what kind of salt or the fact that nobody seems to have a proper hard roll kimmelweck. The important thing is that this place serves Tom & Jerrys until April, rather than stopping at New Year. Drinking before 5, amiright? For trivia buffs this is a place where Anthony Bourdain ate and I presume had it on one of his shows.

A conversation I found edifying on NPR. Among other things, there’s an excellent clarification of racism and anti-semitism (different things, both bad). https://www.wbur.org/onpoint/2019/03/15/anti-semitism-jewish-history-news https://www.wbur.org/onpoint/2019/03/15/anti-semitism-jewish-history-news
