Italy in NY

My ideal job would involve traveling and eating. Until I can figure out how to get that gig, I can only afford $2.25 for the subway and traveling the world within NY. Not a bad alternative, especially when the annual San Gennaro festival in Little Italy comes around.

Word association- Italians... :)


It's not a festival without the freak shows...

and the healthy competition...


I wasn't about to compete with this!

and the FOOD!


No holds barred! Even the piovens came out!

Meat on a stick! It seems like every culture has some kind of meat on a stick and it's all good.


Sausage heaven!


Gotta have your veggies!


and dessert... Fried everything- even deep fried snickers!




Something to wash it all down with...

and smokes.



The patron saint of San Gennaro. I was focused on the food and never learned why they place money under the statue.

A random cemetery in between the buildings on Mulberry St. There was something strangely beautiful about it.
