But it's fun to tour the Javitts Center with two certified assholes, my friends who are former Subaru owners; one a diesel mechanic for Orange & Rockland/ ConEd now driving a lifted & kitted Tacoma and the other a hedge fund manager whipping around an black M5 with the rare cinnamon leather interior and OEM 19s. It was a good learning experience to hear about what's new in the Truck & Euro world, but basically we walk around and clown on everybody. But many would do such a great job on their own...
This guy and his homey were the best. They would take turns posing with EVERY car taking photos. The one guy would hug every car often putting his face right onto the hood or rear bumper, while his buddy would pimp in front of every car sprawled out on the hood or standing arms crossed in the bed of every pick up. Love you guys.

Bugatti Veyron. Seemed smaller in person than as depicted on Top Gear but still impressive.

"Yo soy es eng Past eng Purious, meng. Dame un foto con mi ho."
"Good thing I wore my blue shirt, huh Franz?"
"Yes, Hans."
Although tradition after going to the Auto Show is going to Atomic Wings, we were excited to head downtown to check out Hill Country Fried Chicken. Hill Country BBQ is still pretty good after about a half dozen visits, so I was hoping that HCFC, would also be legit.
The restaurant is cafeteria style where you walk up to the counter, pick out your selection per piece, per side & drink. No nonsense. I liked it. Easy in Easy out.
One breast, thigh, leg & wing. Almost half a chicken. Gotta try each piece, right? Sadly, the chicken wasn't KFC breaded, but the seasoned coating was pretty savory & the chicken was cooked perfectly. The breast was moist straight through. Next time I'll order all drumsticks or all wings. HCFC is dope because they serve Franks Red as well as Honey as dippers. I went Compton's Honey's Kettle and went sweet & salty the whole meal through.
The cheddar mash was ok. The chicken is really the star, but you always have to have at least one side. They serve Boylan's Grape which was a nice suprise. I ordered a Black & White shake as well, but I'm curious about the Pie Shake, where they mash the Pie of the day into a milkshake. Interesting.
The meal was a stellar end to the day. Had to walk halfway across town just to jump start the digestion process, but it was well worth it. I'll be back for a bucket of wings.
