Oyster Bar New York - wishlist

Just to remind myself to eat here when I go to NY!
And the menu

Wet relief

Phew.. a few days of concerted rain, rain, rain (50mm?) finally.. after the driest, scariest drought I've seen since moving to the countryside 4 yrs ago. When front gardens start looking yellow and dead, and farmers in tears are having to shoot their livestock, and extreme water restrictions and fines are in place, well, it's all getting like a surreal horror movie, and it's no wonder people in this driest continent Australia start to think about moving somewhere else wetter!

The dry relentless heat has now been broken up and it's been cooler, moister. Unfortunately for those in Mildura, there are serious floods - we would have been there right now for the Expo if we'd decided to go and I could imagine our river houseboat floating up the city streets. An unsettling fantasy.
