I’ve never eaten at Zum Schneider before, but was really looking forward to it. Unfortunately, so was everyone else in New York…and so after a three-hour (yeah) wait (their very delicious, very cheap beers persuaded us to hang around until almost 10 before finally leaving in frustration), we headed down the block to Caffe Pepe Rosso. Pretty standard Italian food, but well-priced (about $11 for most pasta entrees) and quick: they had all 12 of us out the door and on our way to the last stop, Ella, by a little after 11.
