In brief: Crowded and hectic as always, if you're dying for that dish you never get to eat, maybe it's worth it.

I don't know why we go, Madison Square Eats is a total mob scene, the lines go on and on and we can never find a seat. At least today was a stunning day to brave the crowds and we ended up, as we did last year, copping a squat in the park by the side of the lawn. Still love the fries at Ilili, the brussel sprouts were delicious, but we forgot forks so we ate them with our fingers and the pancake-sandwich lamb just meh.
