I was just at a coffee shop where they sold Babka, and a weird, funky idea hit my mind. Someone (and it would not be me, because I don't have the money) should open up a Seinfeld restaurant somewhere (preferably in Israel, so that I could visit it). It will include famous items from Seinfeld episodes hanging on the walls, pictures of Seinfeld and other cast members and the coolest thing - a personalized TV monitor for every table will present you with your favourite episode! You could also buy it in the restaurant shop. I was wondering, though - what would the menu look like in a restaurant like this?
Foods on Seinfeld, well, quite a few come to mind. Babka (cinnamon, chocolate), black+white cookies.
Kasha. Payeaha (I know I spelled that wrong) (foods from the Costanzas)
Tuna on toast, coleslaw, coffee (what George ate before the opposite). Chicken salad (on untoasted rye), and tea. (the opposite)
The big salad.
Junior Mints are available on the counter. And Pez (and tweetie bird Pez dispensers). And Jujyfruit. And coffee table books showing the coffee tables of everyone involved in Seinfeld. (And I really like the idea of videos of episodes being available.)
Fresh mango and whatever that kind of peach (?) Kramer and Newman loved so much.
Apple pie. Pizza (hand tossed, but *not* by Poppie). And was it Pasta Primavera that Dowlrimple ate? (These aren't menu items people will feel safe with..)
Various sumptuous soups. (the soup nazi)
Fresh lobster.
Chinese food for takeout.
(Note: I had trouble responding to this post -- nn complained of 8 bit characters. I had to change it to 7 bit and add the Newsgroups line myself after it complained. Just in case you're wondering why no one else has yet forwarded to this fun idea.)
