Let's Make a Deal

The movie I work for is a remake of the German film, "Mostly Martha." That title won't work because there can only be one Martha, and she's got her own show. So for now we're called the "Untitled Scott Hicks Film" named after the director. I'm part of the art department, and we want to call it "Quiche Me Kate" because the chef character is called Kate. No one listens to us, though. I thought about blogging a picture of Catherine Zeta Jones so more people would look at the blog, but I'd get fired. Besides, I don't have any pics of her anyway.
I just wanted to tell you about that because I will be posting some fun fake food stuff from the property department when I get a chance. In fact, the hospital trays that props got from this plastics company, Borda Products, reminded me of a good lunch special at Thailand Cafe (95 2nd ave. bw E.5th & 6th St.) For years the special was $4.95. It's currently a buck more, but it's still a good value. Granted, it IS lunch, so it's not a ton of food, but it's enough to keep you going until snack time. The soup is a little sour for me, but everything else I've had there is tasty. Pictured above are Tofu Penang and Chicken Rama. I can't decide what's cooler the trays or the price!
