Imagine my surprise when, as I was alking down Second Ave last night, I saw a Saltire hanging from the balcony of a pub. I'd seen the pub before, but it never registered as Scottish without the Saltire...

It's "Shoolbred's" on 2nd Ave between 12th and 13th in the East Village. They have some real nice microbrews, a 20+ list of single malts, and the food, while definitely pub grub, is really good!

Great atmosphere...fireplace, big leather chairs, prints of men in kilts on the walls, and Keith, not only are the bathrooms really confortable, they're immaculate!
