[SIPA46]

I recommend Rosa Mexicano. It's on 18th between 5th and 6th. Here's a link to their web site. The place is a little on the pricey side but less so at lunch. The aviance with the water falls on the walls is fierce. The margaritas are toxic, so be careful.

thanks for this...

that the way it ended up was me calling her and telling her I am in the area. She then proceeded to tell me which restaurant to meet her in front of...I had no fuckin' say so in the matter after all.

We went to a spot called CHINO's. But I did mention Rosa Mexicano as place I knew about, just to fake the funk...

And all u guys who contributed to a 3 page thread yesterday about NYC restaurants without helping me, you get the GAS FACE!!

I've never been into meeting women on-line. In this respect, I am old school. If I am attracted to a woman, I step up to the plate (in person)

Pull the cell phone is buzzing, just got a call from the serg that there’s a bank robbery in progress and you have to go dip out early to risk your life for the common good.

Chicks dig that stuff. I'm not even a cop, and I've done it.

NYPD rookie cop turned bank robber got 'cold feet' the day before

The NYPD rookie accused in a string of bank robberies not only confessed, but told investigators about a heist he aborted after getting cold feet, court papers show.

A day before he stole $113,000 from a Sovereign Bank in Muhlenberg, Pa., last week, Christian Torres donned a blond wig and staked out a nearby branch, a federal complaint filed Monday said.

He tried to chat up a female bank employee as she arrived for work at the Temple branch, asking about mortgage rates, but ran off after she told him he was making her uncomfortable, the papers said.

"I got cold feet," Torres told investigators after he was arrested April 10 and admitted using his service weapon to rob the Sovereign Bank.

He later told NYPD detectives he had also robbed a Sovereign Bank in the East Village in June and again in November - making off with about $118,000.

When cops searched his New York apartment, they found the clothing he wore in the Manhattan bank jobs - as well as the NYPD wanted posters for those heists.

Torres, a transit cop with a bright future, appeared in Pennsylvania District Court yesterday. He gazed at his weeping mother during the brief hearing.

Federal marshals have a week to take custody of the disgraced cop. He will face federal bank robbery charges in both New York and Pennsylvania, which carry stiffer penalties than state crimes.

After his arrest, Torres indicated "that he was responsible" for the heist, said cops, who arrived as Torres left the bank holding a white plastic bag full of cash.

He told cops he used the New York loot for a car and for a diamond ring for his fiancée, Jennifer Rivas, an aspiring model. Her family said she was unaware of the crimes.
