59th Annual Snug Harbor Fence Show
The 59th Annual Snug Harbor Fence Show was held today. What a beautiful sunny day to walk around and check out some of the city's best artists!
I was surprised to see so many people selling jewelry at the show. But, that is a form of art as well so I guess it makes sense.
Most of the art there was good. There were a few that were AMAZING! And, there were also a few that were subpar.
Next year I will be sure to bring a few hundred dollars with me so I can add a new piece of local art to my collection!
Sri Lankan Sunday Buffet

Today I visited the Sri Lankan restaurant San Rasa (226 Bay Street, Tompkinsville, 718.420.0027) for their Sunday, all-you-can-eat $11 buffet. The restaurant is a short walk from the ferry so it is easily accessible to visitors from the other boroughs.
The buffet is filled with traditional Sri Lankan cuisine: curry chicken, oxtail, curried kingfish, eggplant, sweet green beans, rice noodles, yellow rice with cinnamon, hot onion-chili potatoes, and much much more.
A delicious mango lassa and mango mousse rounded out the meal and helped to cut the hot spices.
I was inspired to check out this place after reading an article in the NY Times last week highlighting the new ethnic restaurants on the Island.
