Boss just okayed my trip to NYC. I'll have to set aside time to network and work remotely, but I'll take it! I'd love recommendations on what to eat!
@tats OMG!!! I am so excited to get to make recommendations. Do you have any dietary restrictions?
@SuzanEraslan nope!!! Give me all the noms, don't hold back!
@tats Pastrami ruben sandwiches at Katz's; smoked white fish salad on a bagel at Zabar's; Ukrainian comfort food (pierogis and borscht specifically) at Veselka; durian ice cream at Chinatown Ice Cream Factory; fried chicken and eggnog waffles at Melba's; soup dumplings, lion's head meatballs, and black pepper crispy skin duck at Joe's Shanghai; donuts from Dunwell (they're vegan, but you'd never know it); pizza at Franny's; fried fish at LoLo's Seafood Shack
@tats Yaaay!!! But really, which ones in particular? 😁 (Oh, I also just remembered another one: the frogs legs at La Grenouille are amazing, unlike any I've had anywhere else-- a huge plate full of tiny legs, with super tender meat, swimming in butter and a touch of garlic. The cheese soufflé is also good, if you have a guest with you.)
@SuzanEraslan Oh, that sounds amazing! My partner and I like French food for date night (cheesy, I know, but we didn't plan it- X-Men/superhero movies also figure prominently,) so this is perfect.
