Chowish lunch near laguardia

Landing at 10am, meeting at the Marriott at 2-

Balancing carfare with foodie desires, do I go into Manhattan ($60 round trip) or is there a better alternative?

Help me ny hounds,,.

Unless you're paying for some $200+ haute cuisine meal, there's nothing worth tacking an extra $60 onto your meal for. And even then, I wouldn't do it.

The answer is SriPraPhai or Zabb Elee in Queens, though that should be noted on the Outer Boroughs board. SPP is about 40 minutes by bus, Zabb a little less, maybe a half-hour give or take - either one is only about 10 minutes by cab.

Which Marriott? Marquis in Manhattan? There's a Marriott in Flushing, too, I believe.

Both Flushing with dozens of Chinese choices or Elmhurst with virtually everything are close to LGA.

You should also post on the Outer Boroughs board for Queens questions.
