food was ok. the neighborhood itself is the most interesting part of the trip.

Tom's Restaurant
Well, I think the Tom’s most people are thinking of is the one from both the Suzanne Vega song and the show Seinfeld, which is not in Brooklyn, but on 112th and Broadway in Manhattan. It’s not actually called Tom’s Diner, but Tom’s Restaurant. “Bells of the Cathedral” in the Suzanne Vega song refers to the bells of Saint John the Divine nearby. The food’s okay, but nothing too great.

mmm. super long lines but they give you coffee while you wait and the food makes it totally worthwhile!

From the Suzanne Vega song of the same name.
I like this place. The owner and workers are all super nice, and the food is affordable if not comparable to Nobu or Per Se. This isn’t even on the same island as Columbia, so I don’t know why undergrads would travel all the way to Prospect Heights, Matt Norwood. Are you sure you have the right Tom’s Diner in mind?
By the way, has anyone any idea what “bells of the cathedral” Vega is referring to?
