Monk's is really Tom's Restaurant on the corner of 112th and Broadway. I'm told the inside looks nothing at all like the set, and the food is decent.

If you go, let us know how you liked it. [email] (Hammer nail here--> <-- for a new monitor.) (Remove XXXX to reply)

D'oh! Or, you can stop by the corner of 112th and Broadway in NYC. You'll find Tom's Restaurant, which is what they use for the exterior shots of Monk's.

BTW, it's Monk's with an 'o'. [email] (Hammer nail here--> <-- for a new monitor.) (Remove XXXX to reply)

Careful Dave, I just got flamed for my crusade to correct 'alot' a lot. It seems there is a PSPG (Poor Spellor's Pretection Groop) - be fair to the illiterate, support the decay of education, What Me Read?, And I guess I crossed their the line. :-) Keep up your great posts. They keep us intersted in this years's crop (with an oh) of shows.

BTW, it is "interested" and "year's."

Hey, wait a minute. Notice I avoided the whole 'alot a lot' thread. Grammar and spelling don't bug me much, I don't have much time for proofreading either, but when you mess with a proper noun, well, watch out. I've seen Krammer, Kramar, Giorge, Elane, you name it, and there's no greater sin (well, few greater sins) than misspelling a name. For the record, here are some correct spellings:

Jerry Seinfeld, George Costanza, Elaine Marie Benes, Cosmo Kramer, Monk's, Tim Whatley, Babu Bhatt, Poppie, Jack Klompus, Mr. Lippman, Jackie Chiles, J Peterman, David Puddy, Kenny Bania, "Crazy" Joe Davola.

Remember when Jerry and George has the meeting with the NBC Execs? And George mentioned to Russell Dalrymple how he prided himself in his ability to spell anyone's name correctly, them proceded to butcher Russell's name?

Well if truth be told, I've never forgiven George for that ;)

Don't forget Newman! His name gets butchered just as much. I've seen it spelled Neuman, Neumann, Newmann, Newmen, Neumen, and Neumenn. Yikes.

spelled

Yes, you're right, in the show, it is spelled "Kramer", probably the most common spelling...it's from the German. My name is spelled "Kramar", and while my name is from the Czech (Bohemian), it is also a surname found in Sweden.

Thank you.

monk's is a tv show restaurant. it does not really exist. however, the shots of the monk's exterior are of "tom's restaurant" on the corner of Broadway and 114th (i think, somewhere on BWAY between 111th and 114th on the East side of the street). the interior, though, is very much different. it is a greasy spoon diner frequented by Columbia U. Students. there are a few seinfeld pictures posted there.

Well, the inside of Monk's is in Los Angeles, located in the same soundstage as Jerry's apartment.

The exterior shots are from New York, and the restaurant is called, if I remember correctly, "Tom's Restaurant".

Tom's Restaurant was the basis for Suzanne Vega's song "Tom's Diner".
