New York City: Pink Pony R.I.P.

Oh, what a pleasure to start the day with a delicious breakfast. Brunch at Pink Pony on Ludlow Street in the south of Manhattan (Lower East Side) was one of my weekend deluges. The place served also lunch and a delicious dinner. Many dishes were Moroccan style belonging to a tasty Mediterranean cuisine.

I enjoyed especially the cozy atmosphere at this little place. The walls were full of books, bottles and pictures and gave the restaurant the look of a hedonistic library.

Now Pink Pony is gone. The blog Bowery Boogie reports that the place closed "under cover of darkness" (boweryboogie). It seems that the restaurant got victim of the steep rising rents in this area.

R.I.P. Pink Pony, we will miss you.
