A Report On A Late Night Snack

Decent Essays
A late night snack, something that seems to be a common thing but a place to go isn’t always available. There’s always a fast-food chain to go to but that gets old quick hey maybe the low quality restaurant that seems to stay open down the block but that’s no good either. Then you find this little old school diner called Harlo’s Grill just sitting in the middle of an unsuspecting place that just seems to help with any type of craving. While driving up you can see how old fashioned the place seems just by the look of the parking lot, then as you walk in the set-up is just something you see from an old movie, finally there’s the people that just seem like they never got with the times and just seem to enjoy the nostalgia of the old place. The feeling from the place just makes you feel like a little step into the past. First when driving in you see this old little building that just screams old fashioned. From the seemingly broken asphalt that rubs under your shoe as you walk trying to avoid the little holes that could easily make you trip to the way the little place for a diner looks. Signs on top of the building that says what’s served; spelling out beef burgers and malts, Italian beefs and fresh coffee. Then you can see into the diner as walk towards it the light from inside just showing on the asphalt letting you barely see where the parking spots are. Then there’s this big old poll standing out front on top saying Harlo Grill in neon lights that seem to give out a humming

    The Meatpacking District is one of my favorite neighborhoods in NYC because of how hip it is and how it is packed with steel and glass lofts, with sun pouring though the oversized windows. It always gives me an electric feeling walking around the cobble streets, looking at the Chelsea Market and walking the High Line. All of that sprightliness is encapsulated perfectly into the Fig and Olive. It has those floor to ceiling windows, that let rays seep in, reinforced by industrial steal framing the beautiful warehouses. The loft-like space of the restaurant has many rugged aspects like the hanging warehouse pendant lights and the metallic components throughout, however Fig and Olive also has a calm Mediterranean feel to its decor.…

    Directly outside the entrance of the airport I was entranced. Leaving a skyline of dying trees and brisk weather and entering a bright flourishing tropic was a sight of wonderland. I fell in love immediately, the sun was high and bright, and the view was green, full of mountains in the horizon, just out of reach. I was astounded that I was in the big city, yet it was nothing like i’d seen before. The buildings weren’t tall or intimidating like back home, they second to the surrounding…

    The drab, depressing ambiance of the nursing home led me to believe that the home was for people with lower or limited income. If the nursing home was making money, it was not being spent to make the building look inviting or comfortable for visitors or residents. The look of unhappiness from the people living there could be the lack of attention from the caretakers as well as the lack of visitors. I recalled the man in the lunchroom asking for water and being ignored. I also thought of Emma and how she held my hand.…
