What's Your Favorite Place Ever?

Favorite New York Quotes, Volume VII.

"'What do you want to do?'

'I don’t know. What’s your favorite place ever? In the whole city, I mean.'

'My favorite place ever in the whole city?'

'Right.'

'Including the boroughs?'

'Don’t tell me it’s in Brooklyn. That’s awfully disappointing.'

'Not Brooklyn,' Sammy said. 'Queens.'

'Worse still.'

'Only it isn’t there anymore, my favorite place. They closed it. Packed it up and rolled it right it right out of town.'

'The fair,' Bacon said. He shook his head. 'You and that Fair.'"

Michael Chabon, The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay
