As promised, here are more views from Fishs Eddy, the New York City store filled with an ever changing array of restaurant quality dishes and glasses. Some of their wares are vintage, some are new; all are wonderful. Have a look . . .
I've always liked sturdy restaurant china. Maybe it's because I grew up in the restaurant business?
Some of the newly made dishes you'll find at Fishs Eddy are unique, edgy and whimsical. Often they have a theme, like the floorplan and crossword puzzle patterns below.
A mainstay are their lines of simple, unadorned dishes, either all-white called "Diner Whites" or yummy colors called "Colorware."
Every time I'm at Fishs Eddy, I have the urge to get rid of my everyday dishes and start fresh. But I used restraint and didn't buy a single thing. I simply enjoyed the browsing and the inspiration.

Susan I love the restaurant dishes
too. I really love those "diner
whites". They are sooo pretty.
I don't think I could have walked
out with nothing. I don't do well
around dishes for sale. ":O)

I love Fish's Eddy-as a matter of fact I was in the city too on Saturday! But unfortuately didn't get over there. We did go on the HI-line and had lunch at Chelsea Market and spent the morning on the Intrepid. It was a beautiful day!
