The Sopranos filed an episode at our business in 2000 the business was Fountains of Wayne. We were a northern New Jersey landmark. We sold concrete statuary and Fountains. We also sold outdoor furniture and Christmas ornaments.
Loved this one! Looking forever to dining at John’s on my next trip to NYC. As usual, you have a great sense of humor, and your videos always brighten my day!
that was awesome tom, its amazing to see the passion you put on in every video, keep the excellent work!! n sure the quality has improved tremendously, greetings from Peru.
Making it out at a young age is quite difficult. I started a side hustle at 17, saved up and made some good investments. l'm 28,live on my own and having a good life for myself. Big ups to you and everyone out there trying
@@steceymorgan814 Yes it sure is. I put in money in investments and get profits. That 's how I make more money without working. This does not sound new to you right ?
I love NYC and I'm trying to learn as much as I can about the history of the city in order to solve a treasure hunt that started there in the 80's by a dude named Byron Preiss. I think it'd be really cool to talk about that in one of your videos! Somewhere in NYC there is a 40-year-old "casque" burried 1-3 ft deep, and if you find it, you can redeem a $1,500 gemstone. All of this can be found in the book called The Secret: A Treasure Hunt by Byron Preiss. The whole book revolves around immigration, folks leaving the old world to come to the new. This would be such a cool Sick Plug I think! Keep up all your badass video's regardless! I'm learning a lot from you, and if I'm ever in NYC I will definitely be hitting you up for a massive tour!
Looks like a great place. I will definitely try it when I'm next in NYC.. I usually use Monte's Trattoria on MacDougal St. That's also very authentic and historic. But John's is def worth a visit. Thanks for a great video.. greetings from Wales. 👍🏴
Hi guys, I’m in Brazil and one dollar here is about 6 of our money so the lowest patron is like 30 bucks for us. So, I sent you a PayPal “ coffee “ for a cold day…. Thank you for your videos, they keep me dreaming about going to those places some day…
@@carriehenry6721 No offense back Carrie, but I think he looks better with longer hair. Then again, I like long hair on men. I'm not into the shaved head scene. I think it's boring. I prefer edgy and unconventional, the romantic poet or the rebel without a cause over the status quo and the predictable. lol You know....a bit quirky, witty, intellectual, fun:-) Unpredictable......at the same time I do like loyal, trustworthy, and reliable. You got me on a roll. I better stop while I'm ahead. lol
you should do a deep dive into New York Pizza...history, style, neighborhoods, first, best etc. ... and of course The Dark Side of NYC Pizza by the Slice!
I was just talking about John’s the other night, need a visit soon! I love John’s & am so happy it’s still there, especially as so many great EV places are long gone😢. The floors are the same as my old shop in the West Village, thankfully 4 tenants after me they’re still there😃! Oh to be back… soon, but *not* the EV, when I moved back to NYC after living in London in the mid-80s I said ‘never again’ as it’d changed/gentrified so much in just 6 mos! Gimme the “grit” back & I’ll consider it👍!
Very cool. My husband lived on saint marks for over 20 years and always pushed me check this place out, I always refused. Now that we moved uptown because our beloved East village is not as family friendly…. I will 100% drive down to check it out, business like that’s are fading away
Love your videos! Entertainingly comprehensive and informative. For a bit of constructive criticism though. You should stop interrupting the people you interview, or just abstain from the interview all together. You do not seem to be interested in the response they have to your inquiry, but more concerned with your next question.
I had a great grandmother who sort of had a speakeasy during Prohibition. Guys would come to her home to play cards with my great grandfather and she sold them glasses of home made wine. It was a nice way to make a few extra bucks.
Tom, nice job, thank you. Have you thought about going across the river to Jersey City. There is a great Spanish restaurant there called El Sabroso. They just celebrated their 30th anniversary . They specialize in Puerto Rican and Central American food.
Tom, your production and storytelling experience has gone up in quality so much. Loved this one!

Amazing content, humor is on point as always.
For as long as I’ve lived close to NYC you’ve taught me so much. And you have not run out of any new topics. Thanks and keep it going!
John's sounds like a real NYC type of experience. Thanks for showing us around the place.
I like how you do your Research I been living in N.Y.C over 50 yrs.I always love to learn something new about beautiful N.Y.C.
This was just great! I will be visiting John`s next time while in NYC. Love from Norway. Cheers -
Try the sausage and peppers best

Watching this video was the most fun I have had all day! I love watching your videos as much as watching Anthony Bourdain’s shows. 😀 Thanks Tom!
You're a natural Tom, been enjoying the channel. And loving the dry humor. Thank you for your service and your cervix. Cheers from Toronto. ✌️
Another really well done video! That looks like an amazing restaurant
Thank you for an entertaining video! It was fun and most insightful on the history of the restaurant. Thank you, again!!

@@chrisjohn7823 Sounds like plan, how do you put money to work?
@@steceymorgan814 Yes it sure is. I put in money in investments and get profits. That 's how I make more money without working. This does not sound new to you right ?
@@chrisjohn7823 Thanks for replying me, I've heard so many people talk about investment but none had said how to do it right.
@Hoshi Fuyo There are lots of investments options such as real estate, stock market, forex, cr ypt os, passive income,
John’s is so so very worth the visit! Thank’s for this awesome inside look sir!!
The wink-fart gets me every time! Great content discovering the countless gems of NYC
Love the in-depth videos. So nice to meet locals. Thank you Tom

Hey Tom, Tim here.
Great video!
We invite y'all at John's but hopefully you don't get my cousin to be your server. Good luck!
Little Poland right around the corner is the best! Dessert at Venieros completes the trip. I'll have to try John's! Good job, Tom!
I’m checking this spot out this weekend! Thanks to this video! 👌🏾
Tom I love this look, keep it! Great show, grazie.

Hey Tom! What's up? Another awesome walk and video!

McSorleys next please. Just came back from NYC trip. Stopped there and was amazed at the history. Oldest continuous running bar in NYC

Hair looks fantastic. Always did love the "Gallagher" look!
I like the long hair!
I assume no best barbers of Manhattan video any time soon
No offense he's much better looking with short hair.

OMG, I love John's on 12th! Every trip to NYC always includes a meal there.
Ate there one time when celebrating the 20th Anniversary of some friends...really a wonderful experience.
Holy humidity! 😳😂😂😂
Great video, and now I'm hungry!

I really enjoyed the off voice snippet!
I love it!!!
Looking very cool.

The most iconic thing in NYC is Tom!
LOVE IT
LIVING IN CALIFORNIA. I LOVE ❤️ THAT PLACE.NYC HAS THE BEST FOOD ❤️
I live a few blocks away and I have to admit I've never been here; that will be remedied soon!
Thanks for the info 👍🏽 keep it up
Great video, Tom! That hair is looking great as well
Them walking on your headshot...lmao!!!!
That’s very cool. I would go there.
Buongiorno, Tom!
Very cool. My husband lived on saint marks for over 20 years and always pushed me check this place out, I always refused. Now that we moved uptown because our beloved East village is not as family friendly…. I will 100% drive down to check it out, business like that’s are fading away

Good show buddy just stumbled upon you the previous owner I think was stock broker and left to be owner Johns
Great vid, great HAIR !!!😺😺😺
I'm sold.. great video. thanks!
Tom your hair you are how Kenny G.🎷🎵🎵🎶

Great video as usual! Love your long hair!
One of my fav in nyc started in the 1980 lunch then down to vieneros for dessert
You should do a video on Carroll gardens
John's of 12th Street is THE BEST ITALIAN RESTAURANT ON THE PLANET
Great vid but it felt like you were cutting off the manager a lot
John's on E 64th is also theirs I believe.
I had a great grandmother who sort of had a speakeasy during Prohibition. Guys would come to her home to play cards with my great grandfather and she sold them glasses of home made wine. It was a nice way to make a few extra bucks.
You are a funny guy! Great video!
Now that Tom is keeping his beard from growing to Brian Blessed like glory, his scalp hair seems to feel the need to compensate.
Hilarious ending
Love it!
Oh wow..finally took your hat off...great hair!!.....totally rocking the Jesus look...
I want the chicken parm and to sit there and enjoy it!
Looks like THE place!
They also deliver......Mangigot on call!!!
Cool spot
Oh em gee (as the kids say) that looks incredible.
Ate at John's once. Mixed dining experience. Some food good, some not so good. It has an interesting history for sure.
That was fun! It also made me hungry. The food looked fabulous and I enjoyed the history too:-) No sliding down polls today. Lol
LMAOOO U WOULNT LET HIM TALK LOL
I'm with Rob, I miss the grittiness of 1970s NYC.
John's enormous bowls of carbonara about the only thing i miss about NYC right now.
best nyc videos ever...........
Tom, nice job, thank you. Have you thought about going across the river to Jersey City. There is a great Spanish restaurant there called El Sabroso. They just celebrated their 30th anniversary . They specialize in Puerto Rican and Central American food.
Like leo said anything can happen at John’s
my only critic of your videos: you never put any link of the place you visit or contact in your presentation
Sausage and peppers is awesome here everything really is
I never been there I’ve been wanting to go for long time I think I will soon
