I could go for a ripper right now....

Do they make cheesesteaks here??? If so, does anyone have a picture of the cheesesteak? Thanks!!!

Kobi - so, what did you think of the food, where did you go?

So, what other chicken dishes have you had this week???

i could justify eating roast pork for dinner, but what i was referring to are the egg and cheese sandwiches with steak - anyone hwave one - how are they??? Roast pork isn't breakfast food?? ←

After looking at the website for Tony Lukes, it appears that they also have breakfast sandwiches, can anyone comment on how they are - what did you get? interesting point. i finally managed to get to the 9th ave location today and ordered a "provolone wit". the lady behind the counter gave me a blank stare so naturally i clarified my order. a damned fine sandwich to be sure, but yeah, something was missing on the personnel front. ←

OK....This topic may be pretty basic to many people, but would be pretty helpful to me. I am a big fan of taking some boneless chicken breats and throwing them on the grill for dinner. I like to marinade them as well, but always use the same marinades. Can you please provide me with some tasty marinades for grilled boneless chicken breasts? Thanks....

Please provide the names of the places that you recommend...Thanks!

THe slovaki joint sounds right up my alley - what is it called, and can you provide the location, directions, phone number. Thanks There's Queen for higher-end red sauce Italian.. It's where the attorney's and judges go to eat.. on Court Street.. for low brow I like the Slovaki Joint on Lawrence Street.. the place is 20 or 30 years old, same guys own the building and have been there forever.. great gyro and chicken kabobs.. no atmosphere to speak of- it's great for a lunch alone.. ←

I have to head over to the Borough Hall Subway stop soon, and was wondering of any good food places over there for some lunch...Thanks!!!

I made it to the NYC BBQ Block Party for the first time this year and had a great time. I was wondering, can we get a list going of all the food type festivals in the area. Dates, Locations, Details, etc would be great!

Made it out to Wolfgangs recently with a large group.....we started with the traditinal seafood appetizer consisting of lobster, crab meat, huge shrimps with a great sauce. Next, the waiter brought each of us the thickest slice of bacon that I have ever seen. Then came the porterhouse steaks and sides - all were excellent and I highly recommend this place. Enjoy! The website is here:http://www.WolfgangsSteakhouse.com/ You'll see a lot of people there in business attire, but "smart casual" is ok too. ←

Any wesbite on this place, what about the dress code?

Next time that is what I will get for sure - what type of provolone???

Made it out to Tony Lukes in NYC and it was excellent - I have never been to the one in Philly (I have to make it out there) so I can not compare the two. We got the chicken parm hero with sharp provolone and extra gravy. What an amazing sandwich, just packed with flavor, and might I add it is quite filling. Next, we got a cheesesteak with wiz and onions. Very good sandwich and has the potential to be a great sandwich, next time we'll get the onions fried and have a little extra wiz. Overall, an excellent place - will be back numerous times!

I am planning to head over to Tony Luke's in NYC one of these days....based on these posts it sounds great!

I have been to that Olive Garden - I have actually found good mexican food on Route 30 in Greensburg - unfortunately I can not recall the name of the place, but it is on the opposite side of the road of the mall towards Olive Garden...kinda hidden, but good - it has a yellow sign - actually it may be called cozumel - get the chicken mole delicious!!!

I am out in Greensburg, PA quite often and can't find a good place to eat - any recomendations eithe rin Greensburg or the surrounding area? When I say surrounding area, I'd rather not have to drive to Pittsburgh! Thanks!

Finally went to Grimaldis in Hoboken - I will definitely be back there more often...Pizza was delicious, very similar to Brooklyn Pizza in New Jersey. Thin Crust, Fresh Mutzz, very basic sauce and very fresh and delicious!

Thanks - we really did have a good time.

Our NYC 5 Boroughs – A Day Of Eating Tour was amazing!!! Thank you so much to everyone who made recommendations for our trip. We went to each of the 5 boroughs and had great food in each of them. Staten Island The day started in Staten Island with a trip on the Staten Island Ferry. Here, we stopped at a place close by to the Ferry, Country Donuts which is a 5 – 10 minute walk from the ferry. It is a 24 hour place that serves all sorts of stuff. We started our day with an egg and cheese sandwich on an everything bagel – hot sauce was added for a little extra kick! The sandwich was delicious however we should have requested the bagel be toasted. Staten Island Ferry Country Donuts Sign Egg And Cheese Sandwich At Country Donuts With Some Hot Sauce Brooklyn Our next stop was Di Fara Pizza in Brooklyn. I would like to start by making it clear that this is the best slice of pizza that I have ever had! We had a square (Sicilian) slice which was delicious, but the best ever was the regular slice. The combination of the thin crust, fresh sauce, and various types of freshly sliced cheese (most pizza places have the cheese pre shredded – here at Di Fara the cheese is sliced as the pie is being prepared) make this pizza truly amazing! The place itself is also worth a discussion – from the newspaper articles on the wall, to the old style cash register, to the fresh basil being grown in the window, the place is classic. We’ll be making plenty more trips back to Di Fara. Di Fara Pizza Sign A Regular And Square Slice Of Pizza From Di Fara Manhattan The next stop was Manhattan, and we decided to go to New Green Bo in Chinatown. The place itself is right in the heart of Chinatown, a small place, but we were lucky and got seated within about 10 minutes of our arrival. We decided to have an order of scallion pancakes and Soup Dumplings, both of which were excellent. The scallion pancakes were crispy and quite tasty – a great appetizer to keep on the table and snack on throughout the meal. Next we got the Soup Dumplings (they are called something different on the menu, but I believe that they are the first item under the appetizer section). These dumplings were so tasty and fun to eat – meat filled with soup in them as well. Poking the hole in the dumpling, letting the soup drain out onto your spoon – delicious!!! They also provided us with two different types of sauces that were delicious. One sauce was for the dumplings, the other for the scallion pancakes – but I though that both sauces were great on each item. New Green Bo Sign Sauces At New Green Bo Scallion Pancakes At New Green Bo Soup Dumplings From New Green Bo Bronx After eating in 3 boroughs we were pretty full, so we decided to take the long subway ride and walk up to Arthur Avenue in the Bronx – what an amazing area. All the Italian shops were very interesting with various meats, cheeses, etc. I especially enjoyed the Market and all the meats hanging from the ceilings in the shops. The choice of where to eat was pretty difficult, as there were so many good places around. We decided that it was time to cleanse our pallet, so we got some refreshing Lemon Italian Ices from Egidio Pastry. The ices were delicious and worth the trip. They were very refreshing especially after a full day. They got us ready for our final borough, Queens. Egidio Pastry Sign Lemon Italian Ices From Egidio Pastry Pictures From Italian Shops At Arthur Ave Queens Our last stop was in Astoria Queens for some Greek Food. We arrived and headed right to S'agapo for some authentic greek cuisine. The place was real nice and we decided to sit outside. The display of fresh fish was very impressive and it was quite an authentic place, all the waiters and owners were talking greek to one another. We started with some Tzatziki Sauce, Pita and Salad, all of which were delicious – I can not recall the exact name of the salad, but it was not a traditional greek salad. After these two dishes, we were still hungry and went for the classic Saganaki – not sure what kind of cheese it was but a mild cheese with some great flavor. Tzatziki Sauce, Pita, And Salad From S'agapo Saganaki From S'agapo It was great to eat all of this food in each of the boroughs – we definitely have more trips to come in the NYC 5 boroughs as there is so much to explore!

Results of the eating day to be posted shortly!!!

New Green Bo is the best - get the soup dumplings they are delicious!

So I think that I am going to s'agapo - can anyone give me some directions using the subway...also anyone have a menu copy? Thanks!
