Please, if any of our readers are in the Chelsea area, please take a picture of the igloo-for-diners outside of Basta Pasta at 37 West 17th Street. NY1 says that owner Toshi Suzuki builds an igloo every time there's a huge snowfall (this is his 4th in 15 years), and it apparently "seats four comfortably."

Really, you must watch the clip on NY1's site. And this makes us wonder about our ambitious plans for a shanty town in Central Park.
