Yeah, it was a fun group—in many ways, closer to a good campaign group than to a more typical convention game (even moreso than con Everway games tend to be, I'd guess).

I don't, actually, know the bagel shop (though I can usually get all the bagels I want in NYC. :)

Steak and Shake, we found last year; their shakes are, in fact, quite good (though I'm spoiled by the better NY shake places, and by my own experimentation), but we didn't end up visiting them this year—mostly because we were either availing ourselves of the ability to go to a resturant without a reseveration (on Wednesday evening, which I'd guess was pretty much the only time all convention you -could-, during dinner hours), or woried about them being too crowded. They're nice, though, and pretty good.

Unfortunatley, our find of -last- year—Bombay Garden (or something like that; Thai place) was closed and moving this year, or we probably would have gone there at least once (OTOH, if we had, we probably wouldn't have had a meal at St. Elmos, which would have been a shame. Unless we went to St.E instead of Mikado for my birthday dinner on Saturday, which might have been nice).
