Yakuel Taxi

Was staying at the Hotel Grand over the December holiday. The doorman hailed a cab, and my family piled in on a rainy evening, heading to dinner at the Mermaid Oyster Bar. We were all wet, and I was in the front seat. We paid cash for the ride to the low key, friendly driver. Back at the hotel at the end of the night, I realize I do not have my wallet. It’s my last evening in the City, and I spend part of it calling all my credit card companies. Have no idea where I lost the wallet. Two weeks later, a package arrives at my home. It’s my wallet, with everything in it. Yakuel’s business card is taped to the wallet: «You left your wallet in a cab in N.Y.» I was very grateful for the honesty and simplicity of the message. This is a business with great values, and I highly recommend when in NYC where you never know what you’re gonna get.
