This past weekend....

I'll have a couple of more beer reviews in the next couple of days. I spent my saturday exploring Rego Park in Queens hoping to try a "Samsa".which is apparently the Uzbeki version of the Indian Samosa. As I got there, I had a dreadful thought that Rego park might not live up to my expectations. Boy, was I right. The only place I was able to find the existance of the samsa,didn't have them that day. After wandering around for a couple of hours,it dawned on me why most of the local business's weren't open. It was "shabbat",and Rego park has a huge Bukarian and Russian Jew community. From what I could tell,the Uzbeki population are most likey of jewish descent also. If I decide to go back again,I'll be sure to make it a weekday or Sunday. It just goes to show I can't hold every community in the same light I hold Jackson Heights and Queens neighborhoods in the vicinity.
