Who Doesn’t Love a Good Seamen Fair
If you don’t mind walking a little out of bounds for good Scandinavian food, Eating in Translation brings word that yesterday was the start of the Norwegian Seaman’s Church Annual Christmas Fair (on 52nd btw. 1+2nd). You can see his coverage from last year, where they had sandwiches and sweets (and everything was under $7.)

This joke doesn’t work so well in print.

… not wayne’s joke, the blog title.

@ wayne, you beat me to it…wait…that doesn’t sound good either!

flatrock, they call me ‘the butcher’ because you can’t beat my meat

To help pull these comments out of sounding completely fifth grade, I’d like to add something:
According to the church website, the buffet is now $20 and the next and last date for the lunch this year is Dec. 10.
Please proceed with the Beavis and Butthead comments. (OMG. Somebody said Seaman!) -
ha ha, this is when Seamen’s unfair I guess. http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u248/pelvio/1222811561953.jpg

The Wednesday buffet at the Norwegian church will resume in January, I believe; it’s certainly worthwhile if you skip breakfast (and perhaps dinner the night before): http://www.eatingintranslation.com/2008/02/norwegian-seame.html
Exxx-cellent, as Mr. Burns would say.
A nice thing about their Christmas fair is that you can drop in for just a taste: http://www.flickr.com/photos/eatingintranslation/2042563486/
Either way, they’re very friendly; ditto the folks at the Danish and Finnish fairs. I haven’t tried the plate lunch at the Swedish bazaar, but I hope to remedy that oversight in about an hour.
Smithers: I think women and seamen don’t mix.
Mr. Burns: We know what you think.
