Suspected Subway Pleasurer Arrested
Dan Hoyt, the East Village man suspected of masturbating on the subway only to have a rider cameraphone his picture and put it online which then made him a front page story on the Daily News, surrendered to the police yesterday. However, he claimed his innocence saying, "I didn't do anything," as he was paraded out in Columbus Circle. When Gothamist watched the local news coverage of this, it looked as though he was leaving the Columbus Circle subway station, making us wonder if someone else spotted him underground, but he was actually just on his way to Central Booking. Four women picked Hoyt out of lineups as being, as the Post calls him, the "self-touching rider," and he was charged with four counts of public lewdness. Thao Nguyen, who took the photograph that launched dozens of complaints about Hoyt, says she hopes he gets jail while employees at Quintessence, the restaurant he co-owns, had no comment. Hoyt's previous public lewdness arrest resulted in community service.

What? showing your schlong to chicks is illegal? Note to self: stop it.
"At Quintessence on E. 10th St., which serves healthy fare like hemp seed burgers and nut milk, workers were mum about the boss's alleged peccadilloes." hahahahahah they serve NUT MILK!!!!!!!
Jackhammer: Hahahhahah! Nut milk!!!
hmhm. hmmm huhhh huhh! hmmm hmmmmm.
Next stop is Hoyt–Show-me-porn. [ugh]
Ugh!! Haha.
Hoyt and the Quintessence menu. the joke that keeps on giving. I swear to god this has been the funniest thing I've seen in ages.
gotta love public humiliation. he should have to wear a milky white M pinned to his shirt. or P for Perv.
Stop laughing at Nut Milk, that's my dad's name.
yeah, prison will really reform him! hooray for us!
Wait. Nuts produce milk? Bwahahahhah!
Apparently his nuts do produce milk but only in subways cars
As the home of the first internationally renowned public masterbater, the east village is once again a leader of the cultural vanguard. Although Paris, London or Rome may have accomplished, prolific public masterbaters they are mere amatuerish, anonymous pikers in comparison.
I think it's a foregone conclusion that Quintessence is history. I can already imagine business dropping through the basement.
Brightliner...You're forgetting that Quintessence is one of the few places in the City where one can get fresh Nut Meat: A very tasty pinenut meat seasoned with fresh country-style herbs.
I'm actually going to go to Quintessence to try the nut meat.
Restaurant review: QUINTESSENCE.
Chef Dan Hoyt really takes things into his hands at Quintessence. It's not for nothing that his nickname in vegan circles is "Dan the Pleasure Man"; Chef Hoyt knows how to squeeze every bit of goodness out of a raw stalk. He must have a magic wand! Where to begin? Well, with an appetizer of course. Start with a delicious hand roll or grab a carrot smothered in creamy nut cheese. Delicious! Even after the starters at Quintessence, you'll be determined to come again! Now you're ready for the main course: Personally, I love the shrimp stick (don't let the name fool you-- it's quite big!) served with vegetables Asian style-- just the way Dan likes 'em! Also recommended is the noodle stir-fry with sticky seeds. For dessert? The "decadent" banana creme pie, of course, topped with Dan's signature coconut creme. Quintessence a perfect date restaurant, but if you're like me, you don't need to bring a special someone: just hop on the train and go solo!
And also one of the fewer places (outside of subway cars) where you can get nut milk....mmmmmmmm good.
Zudz-so funny!
Instead of Nut Milk or Nut Meat, I think I'll go for the Balls: Inspired by a popular Indian Dish. These soft and moist vegetables balls are made with sprouted chic pea...
You know what Dan Hoyt is an anagram for?
Hand Toy!
Okay, I've eaten at Quintessence many, many times and now I'm
getting quesy at the thought of those lovely, milky coconut shakes. My boyfriend always joked about the white milky substance that "chicks dig", but I'm suddenly getting flashes of those guys dropping their seed in the buffet at the midtown delis. Gross, gross, gross.
What is with the holistic community? There are so many bizarre sex scandals and blow ups and break ups, it makes me wonder why we pay so much money this shit.
Grrr....
Yeah - what's up with that? The owners of Pure Food and Wine - an even more expensive raw establishment -melted down this summer (break-up, fights, cheating, police reports, etc.) and have been all over the gossip columns.
I went in there earlier this summer and the people working there were all talking about it under their breath - not the most healing environment.
It would be great to have a place where people actually walked their talk.

I'm working a story about Dan Hoyt... Does anybody know people who've worked with Dan at Quintessence?
Thanks!

We need to put more young men in prisons that feel they can jerk off in front of a woman.
