New York’s cultural diversity is the reason I walk out of US customs a little fatter. With an ever-evolving, ever expanding and never ending supply of choice, in the impossibly cool NYC, it’s also impossibly hard to find a seat. Be prepared to wait for your roast duck on rice or pastrami on rye, but be glad you did. These 8.5 million eaters, in five culturally sprawling boroughs, have high expectations.
After copious amounts of reading prior to planning out my meals in New York (yes, I plan my meals when travelling) and contacting every foodie I know that had travelled to the city, I compiled my favourite list of eats and drinks. Here is the result…
