New Times Square Lunch Place

Ok, so for those of us who work in the 1440 building, there is pretty much only one place we eat lunch, the one stop shop that has everything and anything you could want, in and out in a matter of 5 minutes and back eating at your desk in no time, yes that's right folks, I'm talking about Cafe Duke. Well after you have eaten there everyday for 15 business days straight, despite the variety, it gets a little old.

Well, luckily for us, we have a fabulous new lunch place called Zeytinz (insert credit to Claire for discovering here). It is awesome. Better food than Duke's for sure. Maybe not as much variety, but still a pretty good number of choices. Today I had the taco bowl, which I would strongly recommend. It was fantastic. The salad bar is also wonderful

So if you find yourself hungry in midtown, check out Zeytinz at 24 W. 40th Street (between 5th and 6th). You will not be disappointed.

It was close to my office, but we are all safe. Thanks for the calls and emails.

I am not the only one with mice!

New 'Times' HQ Has "A Herd" Of Mice

There's an email circulating today among the ad sales people on the 19th floor of the new Times building—let's just say that it's a good thing it's summer and people aren't eating lunch at their desks as much! Or, you know... eek! Mice! The email follows.

Apparently the mouse control efforts on 14, 15, 16, 17, and 18 have been very successful. We know this because a herd (???) of mice have been stampeding on the 19th floor. Building services is on the case, and will address this immediately. Please stay calm.... Help is on the way. An extra sales call might be a great idea...

Also, please suspend any dining on our floors immediately, and dispose of any food or waste in the receptacles found in each mail room. Do not keep food of any kind on or in your desk, this is why our guests have joined us.

Our "guests" indeed.
