My New Book—Ice Cream: A Global History

Fairway’s Elevator

It must have been a slow news day yesterday.  The Times did a story on Fairway’s elevator.  For non-New Yorkers, shopping at Fairway is one of those experiences that could only exist in Gotham.  For example, no one living outside of the city would put with the store’s creaking elevator, which slowly transports shoppers– crammed into the conveyance like sardines–to the store’s second floor.

Speaking of which, who’s ever heard of a multi-floor supermarket?
