Around 1970 2 years after arriving in Toronto from England, and in my early 20s a buddy and i took a greyhound bus to NYC. We arrived very early in the morning tired and hungry, we walked for a long time trying to find a place open for breakfast, but everything was in darkness, then in the distance we saw a light go on, we headed towards it. It was a bar, not what we wanted at that time but decided to go in and look at our map, we sat at the bar and had a beer, then the barman said have you boys had breakfast, we told him our story and he then pulled out a bag of hard boiled that he shared with us, and he popped bread into his personal toaster, hw gave us a beer on the house also. That night we had steaks and a couple of pints at Jack Dempseys bar and grill, washed down with beer, but no sign of Jack that night. You gotta love the bars of NYC, and the friendly people. Our family have been back many times since and have droppen in many pubs and bars there, it is still the best way to meet people and a great way to relax after a day in the City.
