    ‘ Considering it is one of New York’s best-known film locations, you’d think I would have stalked Tom’s Restaurant, aka Monk’s Café from Seinfeld, ages ago.  That was not the case, though.  While the Morningside Heights eatery had been on my To-Stalk List ever since my first visit to Manhattan back in 2005, due to…

    Burning Man’s House from “Major Crimes”
