Newcomers to the downtown restaurant scene like Dimes make the once desolate intersection of Chinatown and the Lower East Side the area for cool new restaurant watching. The arrival of Dimes makes me a happy bruncher, luncher, and all day breakfaster. I’m happy because of the gorgeous natural light that streams into the space making […]
