"I think it was Abraham Lincoln who said that you can't believe everything you read on the internet, and who am I to argue with Honest Abe. So with all the hubbub surrounding Paprika these days and having a meeting on Madison and 36th I decided that it was bashert that I check it out myself. Place was very cool and clean, staff was enthusiastic and helpful, nice separation of the counters between the toasties, the hot dishes and the salad station. Salad was very fresh, food was very interesting and far from your typical Israeli menu but in the best kind of way. Think if your grandmother did a foodie tour before she made you dinner. Would have loved to have the time to try most of the menu. I guess that means I'll have to get back again and again. Sorry Mr googler/yelper, you may seem very big and spicy behind your keyboard, but whatever your reason I think you need a little more Paprika in your life"
