03/03/13 - Broadway show - The Book Of Mormon

We had wonderful Chinese food during our last trip to NYC 10 years ago.  So, going back to Chinatown to eat was a must.  Helen (very high-tech) checked out Internet and found Big Wong Restaurant for us. We had delicious Cantonese dishes.


In the afternoon, we watched the long anticipated Broadway show ‘The Book of Mormon’ in the Eugene O’Neill Theatre.  The Book of Mormon tells the story of two young Mormon missionaries sent to a remote village in northern Uganda, where a brutal warlord is threatening the local population. Naïve and optimistic, the two missionaries try to share the Book of Mormon but have trouble connecting with locals, who are more worried about war, famine, and poverty than about religion. The singing was wonderful and the story is very funny.


We had Dinner at Sardis Restaurant close to the Marriott.  This restaurant is famous for after theater cocktails and dessert.  There are drawings of movie; TV & Theatre star’s faces hanging on the wall.
