$40 a day in NYC - the Un-Rachel W(r)ay

[JasonChow]

If you had 40 bucks in your pocket, and 1 day to spend it in NYC on food only before you leave the city for good.

What would you EAT???

7 bucks for Big Wong's Thousand Year Old Egg and Pork Congee with a fried Chinese crueller.

Shake Shack - double shack burger - 7 bucks

Halal at 53rd and 6th for - 6 bucks.

'inoteca - Truffle Egg Toast for 7 bucks

Pommes Frites - get some belgian fries - 5 bucks

Mamoouns Cafe - I'd get some fallafal and sharwma with whats left.

Binge Eating in NYC - Pricless.

Leave the city for good! That really ups the ante.

Got to begin with a bagel from Murray's with cream cheese of your choice $3.00

Italian Hero Sandwich from Faicco's Pork Store $10.00

Burger at the Spotted Pig $15.00

Got to finish with Gelato at Grom $5.00

With the $7.00 left over might have to sneak in a slice from Bleecker Street Pizza and an Italian Ice from Rocco's

Then I would most certainly need a long walk.
