For The Bazaar?  I'm going to be there the whole week (sun - fri), so if
anyone wants to get dinner or knows of any place to get good guinness,
speak up. :)

Good Guinness in the US?  Does such a thing exist?  When I went (West
Coast) I couldn't find *any* good beer.  When I went to Belgium last
week they had, like, the strongest beer I had ever tasted.  More like
pints of port.

I'll agree about the general quality of beers available in most
watering holes in the left coast.  As far as Guinness goes, I've never
been to Ireland, so I really have no personal basis for comparison,
but one of my drinking buddies is a Brit and he thinks that there are
several bars in NYC that serve up decent pints of Guinness
(e.g. Fitzgerald's on 3rd Ave at approximately 25th st.)  Belgian
beers are currently very popular in New York at least and there are
several wonderful bars still unspoilt by the Time Out NY hordes.  Also
excellent English beers (including hand drawn ales) to be found in
NYC.

Ah, a Duvel... yes, cheers!

BTW, apparently Belgian beers are very fashionable in New York these
days. Might want to go for that instead - I've never liked the export Guinness
anyway.
