Remember the famous scene in "You've Got Mail" when Meg Ryan (the Shopgirl) awaits her online correspondent, and he never shows up as the email interest? He peers through the window and sees her. He realizes that she is his bookstore competitor. Tom Hanks (Joe Fox) does enter as the competitor that she knows and dislikes, and he razzes her for the failure of her email date to appear. The scene takes place in Cafe Lalo, a charming coffee and desert cafe on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. As Christmas decoration, amber yellow lights deck its railings and the sidewalk trees alongside. On an overcast, snowy day, they glow golden and sparkle, chasing away all gloom.
