As I was walking home this evening, I noticed this attractive marquis on the southwest corner of 116th and Frederick Douglass Blvd. Silvana will be a “cafe boutique” featuring Middle Eastern food, international goods, and live music. Their website is not up yet but rumor has it that this latest addition to Frederick Douglass’ restaurant row is scheduled to open later this month.

On a crisp autumn day in New York we decided to walk through Central Park and take in the sights and sounds of the Jazz & Colors event.
From uptown to downtown, east to west, Central Park was awash with Jazz and the colors of Fall.
As we meandered through the park it felt as though performances were occurring at almost every turn. Each one featuring a band playing their unique rendition of great songs and surrounded by listeners.
It was a beautiful thing.
Below are just a few images and performances from uptown to commemorate this years event and in anticipation of next years event.

“President Obama has shown a firm commitment to using government to help foster growth. He has formed sensible budget policies that are not dedicated to protecting the powerful, and has worked to save the social safety net to protect the powerless. Mr. Obama has impressive achievements despite the implacable wall of refusal erected by Congressional Republicans so intent on stopping him that they risked pushing the nation into depression, held its credit rating hostage, and hobbled economic recovery.”

By HarlemHouse The Five and Diamond Restaurant on Frederick Douglass and 112th street has recently gone through a couple of changes. Chef Ryan Skeen has turned over his expertise to Chef David Santos. I won’t get into the story of why the Restaurant changed chefs this has already been written about.
