San Francisco vs New York City

[reaponyereaperman]

Both are generally seen as the best food cities in the States. Never been to either myself. Which do you think is the better food city?

[Karl S]

It depends. (Just remember, NYC covers more than Manhattan, and not just the lower half of Manhattan Island.)

[reaponyereaperman]

By NYC, I mean all five boroughs.

So then, the "it depends" part: Do you mean for dining out or cooking in? How severely locavore is your standard, if at all? How much is "better" correlated to "more options"?

"Better" is meaningless; it needs specific component standards.
