We went to San Gennaro last night, and not to sound like a cranky middle-aged man, BUT, it's not nearly as good as it used to be.
It's a lot smaller than it was years ago, and it's not even solely Italian anymore. Not to sound intolerant, but if I want falafel, I'll go to one of the 2 million falafel stands in the city.
In years past, we'd walk around for a few hours, then pick a restaurant. Last night we walked the Feast for an hour, then took the B train to the Village and had a truly memorable meal at Il Mulino.
