Punchy's club was right across the street from Marco Polo. It later became a pet shop. There's a picture I have to look for of Punchy dozing off in a chair on the sidewalk in front of his club. Not sure what it is now as I've been gone for years.

Hold on there! JAmba Juice is good stuff. Especially the roasted dingleberry flavor.
Try it, you'll like it. :D

Marco Polo is a great restaurant. Red wine pasta tossed in the pasta wheel at your table.

Also the older owner mentioned in the article is real nice. I chatted with him a couple times.

"Co-owner Marco Chirico claimed that the restaurant was caught in the crossfire during an unrelated shootout between gangs from local projects, but a law-enforcement source said the building was targeted."

This quote is funny. The kids from the Red Hook Houses would NEVER be on Court St.
