On a recent trip to New York, I went on the "Real Kramer" Tour, with Kenny Kramer.
It is worth the $US30.
The Restaurant is a bit diappointing though - really named "Tom's Restaurant"
Yo Yo Ma!

What do you expect? The owner of "monks" to be in there, and you order a big salad? I don't see why people are obsessed with the place. Its just a DINER!!!
What's this I hear on the radio that the real life Kramer is going to run for mayor of New York. Says he is qualified because he has voted in every election. What a country!!!!
SANK
The REAL Kramer just seems to be a jerky loser. He's trying to make himself into a celebrity -- only his name really went into Seinfeld. Michael Richards gave Kramer his amusing personality.
Maybe Michael Richards should give Kenny Kramer lessons on how to really be Kramer!

As far as I understand, the only things that Michael Richards brought to the character were the physical aspects, and the taste in clothing. Most everything else, supposedly, is based on the "real" Kramer. For instance, all of the schemes to get money. Quite a few of them, I hear, are based on ideas Kenny had.
