Booze Burgers and Beats The Internet's XanaxI have probably walked by this miniscule, store front deli on Crosby sreet at least 500 times without having any idea or care as to what was being sold inside. What a shame. The food here isn’t as good as it as at Punjab Pak but they have meat and fish here instead of just [...]

This is a really cool place. Hidden in midtown it would be easy to pass it by and shrug it off as another generic deli with bad wraps and contaminated salad bar items. What’s really inside is an entirely different story. You can get made to order chaat, traditional Indian breakfasts, salads and soups, as [...]

Seriously folks, it doesn’t get much better than this. If you were to just walk by the steps leading down to this sort of decrepit looking deli, you would pay it no mind and keep on walking. There’s no indication of anything special going on inside and it appears the same as one of the [...]

I haven’t been a fan of Wong’s since they opened up almost ten years ago. Their soup broth has absolutely no flavor and I hate Chinese restaurants that have pictures on the wall (that never wind up looking like what you ordered), make french fries, have ketchup available, uses frozen vegetables etc. Additionally, their credit [...]

I first read about Chola on Midtown Lunch although I’m pretty well acquainted with the mini restaurant row on East 58th street between 2nd and 3rd Avenues. If you read this blog often enough then you know that I am developing a mini chaat fetish and also predict that the popular Indian street snack will [...]

When I tell you that I had been looking for The Dosa Cart near Washington Square Park for a long time, it’s quite an understatement. I’ll estimate that over the past two or three years I must have anxiously walked to the Sullivan street corner that the cart was supposed to be at hungry as [...]

The Bawarchi’s restaurant on East 63rd street changed their name from Baluchi’s (a large NYC based chain of good quality Indian restaurants) about a year or so back. While the name changed and possibly ownership what has remained the same is the food and the wonderful $14.95 “Special Deal” that is only available for takeout or [...]

Okay, the first order of business is for me to explain what a Kati roll is. Kati rolls are a popular street snack in India, especially in Kolkata. In Bombay the most popular street snacks are Frankies which we’ll get into another time. Kati rolls are essentially the equivalent of Indian burritos but instead of [...]
