How could we pass up the Recession Special? The franks were lightly charred and had a lovely snap. The papaya drink was cold and sweet but not too sweet. When we got back to The Empire Hotel, I wished we'd gotten four Recession Specials!
I guess I should give you some pics from the Yankee game. As I've said before, the food at Yankee Stadium is atrocious. (Hence, our post-game visit to Gray's Papaya.)
We love visiting stadiums in other cities. For some reason, my baseball boyfriend, Ichiro Suzuki, is almost always visiting the same town that I'm visiting. I am convinced it's fate.
The Mariners killed the Yankees. In particular, my baseball boyfriend kicked ass. I was proud to be wearing his All-Star t-shirt, much to the dismay of everybody else in the Bronx
I only know Gray's Papaya from "Fools Rush In." :P
ReplyDeleteI find it funny that Gray's ALWAYS has a recession special. It's around when the economy is doing well, too!
ReplyDeletei love that you have a baseball boyfriend.
ReplyDeletei heart gray's papaya AND your baseball boyfriend!
ReplyDeleteNiiiice Gray's Papaya! When I was in NY in April I had one of their mango drinks. Super sweet but super delicious.
ReplyDeletei love gray's!
ReplyDeleteI heard about this game on NPR, and bam, you were there. It's really hard not to hate you sometimes, and I don't mean that in the stalker-killer kinda way or anything.
ReplyDeleteGray's Papaya vs. Papaya Dog: Declare your allegiance.
I love boyfriends.
ReplyDeleteI'm still shocked that they have such crummy food. Booo on them!
