Where Evil Eats!
Your Favorite Movie Villain's Favorite Restaurant
Being evil in New York City is easy, the hard part is getting a rez!!! Please note that while all these characters are villains, many of these restaurants are truly beloved (but some are possessed by the devil!).
Hannibal Lecter- Silence of the Lambs- Borgo
This is the type of elegant yet low key space where a serial killer can hide in plain sight, even if they insist on writing his name on the table. I would imagine that when the fuzz interviews the staff after arresting Dr. Lecter, they might respond by saying, But he couldn’t have possibly killed those people, he was close personal friends with Arianna Occhipinti!
Nurse Ratched- One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest- Rice to Riches
Rice to Riches is the most perplexing and yucky place serving edible matter in all of New York City. Now I like rice pudding as much as the next guy, probably more than the next guy because a lot of guys don’t fuck with the pudd. I fuck with the pudd folks, but the thought of it being served in big vats like ice cream makes me nauseous. Also, and again this is just my personal taste, I think rice pudding has one basic flavor profile and that’s where we should leave it. Mint chocolate chip rice pudding is a crime, and I say this as someone who doesn’t really even believe in crime as a concept. Can’t you just see Nurse Ratched, tired out from a long day of torturing her patients, taking home a large tub of cookie dough rice pudding and eating it whilst her cat licks between her toes?
