“I was idly punishing my camera this morning, taking pictures of the backside of 20 Bayard (architect Karl’s crowning achievement), when I noticed 3 long white vans, and a few people milling about in 20 Bayard’s Garden of Splendor. Then out burst what must be the cast of Top Chef. You can tell by their expressions they’re a little suspicious, but happy to have their first paparazzo. Sure, big shot celebrities hate us, but the little people of entertainment, fresh off the bus with stars still in their eyes, love us — and that makes it all worthwhile.”–Restlus
