Re: (TV) Tin Huey



    I know your restaurant!! I came with Lewis in the first couple of weeks
that you were open. They food was excellent unfortunately we never get over
to the East Side any more. So any of you listers out there, when in NYC
check out Dennis' place on E.10th Street I believe it is. I'll speak to
Lewis this week. I sent the info for the list in hopes that he'll join up.
