Drink your big black cow, and get outta here

In search of coffee after a light dinner at a Manhattan Izakaya (probably on either 46th or 47th Street and Lexington Avenue), we stopped at Big Daddy's, a diner with Americana themes ranging from comic books to retro video games. Something on the menu caught my attention just before I was about to say "just a coffee for me". Frozen Black Cow! Despite not originally being in the mood for an ice cream soda, I simply had to try one, having learnt of it from the opening track of the Steely Dan album, Aja.

Another drink I know from a Steely Dan song, again one with rampant Manhattan imagery?

For your ramen needs: Did you know that Ippudo has a shop on Fourth Avenue?

Yes, I know!
I'm putting off trying Ippudo in New York ("Japanese soul food" they call it?) until I get really homesick.
