Tom's Restaurant is a diner located at 2880 Broadway (on the corner of West 112th Street) in the Morningside Heights neighborhood of Manhattan in New York City.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Tom's Restaurant )〕 Frequented by students and faculty of nearby Columbia University, it has been owned and operated by the Greek-American family of Minas Zoulis since the 1940s. Tom's Restaurant was the locale that inspired Suzanne Vega's 1980s song "Tom's Diner."〔 Later, its exterior was used as a stand-in for the fictional Monk's Café in the television sitcom ''Seinfeld'', where comedian Jerry Seinfeld's eponymous character and his friends regularly gathered to eat.〔〔 The interior shown on the television show, however, looked very little like the real "Tom's", as indoor scenes were filmed on a set in California.〔 Early ''Seinfeld'' episodes showed the entire neon sign; later, the "Tom's" portion was cropped out, showing only the "RESTAURANT" wraparound. Even though the interior and exterior have undergone minor remodeling since the show, Tom's is featured in the ''Seinfeld'' New York Tour conducted by Kenny Kramer. The trademark "Tom's Restaurant" marquee still exists above the exterior windows. Senator John McCain often ate at Tom's when he visited his daughter Meghan when she was a student at Columbia. ==See also== * List of restaurants in New York City 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tom's Restaurant」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
