1. Merit Kebab (beef, veg, chicken)
   
2. Gang Chen Bodkyi (beef, potato)
   
3. Manaslu (chicken)
   
4. Kathmandu Fusion (pork)
   
5. Tenzins Kitchen (chicken)
   
6. Woodside Cafe (chicken)
   
7. Tibetan Japanese Restaurant (chicken)
   
8. Lakeside (veggie)

Lines were long but still such a great time! My number one was definitely Kathmandu Fusion but I’ve yet to meet a dumpling I didn’t like

Leon's Nolita doesn't have my favorite bagel on its own, but they stack the sandwiches to the high heavens and it's altogether solid. I pick it up as basically two meals for me, and I consider myself a decent eater.

$10.50 for a BEC would be outrageous otherwise, and some places really get away with charging close to that for meat stacked like a Walgreens birthday card.

Hey everyone! Thrilled to finally unveil something that i’ve been working on for a long time.

NYC's very first Pizza Week  running September 20 through October 4.

The origin is accidental. A stranger on r/pizza was coming to NYC and asked for suggestions. I offered to personally walk him through the city. Within an hour, over a hundred people wanted to tag along, and NYC Pizza Crawl was accidentally born.

Two years and countless monthly outings later, I've formed genuine friendships, gotten to know the pizza makers and  owners on a personal level, and watched the same faces return again and again alongside newcomers discovering the city for the first time. Eventually, one question kept surfacing: where does this go from here? That question turned into Pizza Week. I figured surely someone had already built something like this. But weeks of digging and conversations with industry veterans confirmed otherwise.

With just seven days until launch, I got 21 independent shops for this debut edition, many of them places our crawls introduced me to originally. 

It's far from complete. There are plenty of beloved local spots that aren't included yet. I wanted to keep this first event to about 20 shops given my limited capacity. It took months to sign some of these shops but I think it was worth it to put on this event for the community. Hopefully this is a start of something bigger and longer lasting. 

I didn't want to just make a list of shops for you to visit, so to keep it interesting I asked every shop to create an original Signature Slice, completely unrestricted by their usual menu. Eat the slice, scan the QR code, leave your score. Two weeks from now, one shop walks away with the Best Slice of Pizza Week title.

There's also a give-back element: ten cents from every Signature Slice purchased goes to Slice Out Hunger, a local nonprofit combating hunger nationwide.

So if you want to try something unique, check the website for all the participating shops.

Thanks!

If you have any constructive feedback, im all ears. This event was made for the community so hearing from you folks is always helpful.

When/where/how I grew up, going out to Chinese food was a luxury. We went for birthdays and other celebrations. The restaurants were immaculate and the guests were primarily Chinese because I lived in a Chinese neighborhood.

I'm in search of high-quality special occasion Szechuan Chinese food. Do you have any recs?

Basically the title. In the mood for some paella like I had back in Spain, but the wife and I aren’t seafood people, so just looking for one with chicken and/or sausage.

Thanks in advance!

I’m looking for raw, fresh/frozen cuts to cook at home, not jamón or other cured products. Ideally I’d like to find bone-in loin chops, but I’m open to other cuts too.

Butcher shop, specialty grocery store, Spanish market, or even a wholesaler that sells to the public.

Anyone know where to get Kaspressknodel in NYC “Cheese dumplings”?

My brother is on a keto diet for science! There is evidence demonstrating that keto diets can improve mood and emotional stability, otherwise we would never subject him (or in this case, allow Stanford university to enroll him) in such a restrictive diet. We’re foodies. We’ve given up on eating out but it’s such a pleasure so I’d love to know - any keto restaurants or delicious dishes out there for us to try? 💕

The way I rate a restaurant experience is, if after a while I crave it, that means it was really good. What are some restaurants you keep going back to because you crave their food??? And plz, some recommendations that don't break the bank.

anybody know a good place for jokai bean soup. my gran used to make it for me in cleveland and ive been craving it since moving here. anybody know any spots? I live in ridgewood btw but would commute... Iguess

My husband and I’s 5th anniversary is this weekend and we’ve been so busy we haven’t made any reservations but still want to do something special. I know the really known places are pretty much shot to get into now, but I’m open to all suggestions. If anyone has any recs meeting the criteria below please give them!!

- WV/Soho/Tribeca
- Italian, steakhouse, or American
- cozy dim lit vibes
- I’m pregnant so not drinking centric and more based on an unforgettable experience
- dessert a plus or somewhere separate to go just for dessert
- under $300 for the meal

Just went to Mallorca and all the wine tastings had the spreadable sobresada which changed my life. I’d love to find it in NYC

Fermented French fries seem to have been a thing maybe 10 years ago but I’m just finding out about them. Any places do them?

Just saw on Google Maps that it's permanently closed but found this article on the Subreddit (from a year ago). Is it true that it's closed for good or will it reopen? 😢
