    I have watched a lot of your videos and I have to say that it astounds me that some woman hasn't scooped you up. You remind me of my fiance in many ways, bookish, articulate, physical with the running, love the outdoors, love to travel, positive attitude even in the face of disappointment, hard working, family orientated. I mean, I don't see what else a girl could want unless she is just focused on finding a rich guy. Obviously, you are in complete control of what we see of you, which doesn't include knowing everything about you or seeing you at your worst, but god knows my fiance has often seen a side of me I wouldn't necessarily want the rest of the world to see and vice-versa. I wish you the best and I'm sure that you will find someone that appreciates what a prize you are.

      That's such a nice thing to say and I really appreciate it! Yeah, I'm not perfect and I probably should put myself out there a bit more, but your kind words have definitely given me an added confidence. Thank you!

      Rolo's is definitely a spot that I'll be going to in the future. I've been to Jackson Hole, but I was at the one in Queens and I've been to Joe Junior's and really enjoyed that one.

    I had never even heard of this place - looks great! Thanks for another great video. (I genuinely appreciated how you said you didn't want to waste anyone's time/didn't waste time on any click/bait titles - the quality of your videos speaks for itself).

    This was my favorite video you have created so far. My heritage is Sicilian/Alcastian so this video really fit the bill for me. The interior of the restaurant was gorgeous. The burger itself looked marvelous. I was quite surprised however to see such a seafood focused principle menu. I would think for a french bistro type restaurant, there would be more traditional meat offerings like a lamb offering, duck or Cassoulet perhaps. Maybe it was just seasonal for the warmer months? Cheers from Buffalo New York. Happy Subscriber. Also, great watch! I like Hamilton Khaki Automatics. Look forward to the next video!

    • @Jamesnu
      @Jamesnu  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you so much! Absolutely! I really like Hamilton watches too! The restaurant's menu has probably changed a bit since it started. Their most recent chef was the one who added the burger to their menu and perhaps is more inclined to cook fish. Either way the food I saw other people eating looked great and this is definitely a place I want to go back to and try some of their other offerings.

    James, I 100% agree with you on the decor of this place. It looks really cozy and nice. That burger to me looks like the best one I've watched you review thus far. The style you use while reviewing these places is right up my alley. Down to earth, plain language, and easy to follow. You have a great niche here that I haven't seen much of, if any on YT. I'd say what I thought about Bobby Flay but mama always said if you don't have anything nice to say, shut up. It is cool to see these highly recognized people out in the wild though, for sure. LOL While dining in various NYC spots I've run into many super star athletes and seen a bunch of stars and well known mobbed up guys including Gotti. NYC is different than any other American city that way. I used to skate with the Blackhawks in Oak Park here when I was a kid. I ran into Phil Esposito a few decades later at a Steakhouse in NYC. I was with my senior partner. As he was pointing Phil Esposito out to me, Phil recognized me and said hello by name. He walked over to our table and we chatted for a few minutes. I won a lot of "boss" points that night. Thanks man, enjoy your weekend. I'm really enjoying your channel.

    • @Jamesnu

      Thank you! I'm glad that you're enjoying my videos. Yeah, that burger was incredible and I really liked the decor and feel of the restaurant. Indeed, it's surprising to run into famous people. I always have a bit of disbelief for a second. That's a great story about Phil Esposito. I would feel pretty good if something like that happened to me.
