One other question - Katz', Carnegie, Stage or other?
Never been to the mac place but my vote would be Carnegie on the deli front
I live around the corner from Carnegie. Is Katz down on the LES? I think I have eaten @ Katz (with the tickets and pay as you leave) and I prefer it. Is Stage down the street from Carnegie (like a block or two)? I have eaten there a bunch, the problem with Carnegie is that it is so well known there is always a long line. If you catch a line for both Carnegie and Stage I'd recommend going to Rosie O'Gradys a few blocks further south, good food, good prices - I like getting the NY Strip at lunch, it's like $5 cheaper then the dinner menu - good quality and good value.
Katz: pastrami on Rye. they will ask you: "Juicy, lean, or in-between?" You want juicy. And get a half sour pickle.You MUST go to Katz.
The hard salami sandwiches at Katz's are also :money: ...if not a guaranteed coronary as well.Carnegie's is such a waste of food... and the quality isn't that great to begin with.
I don't remember ever being asked that at Katz.... But it is fantastic pastrami
nom nom nom. This is making me so hungry. I think I'll be finding Katz and asking for the juicy pastrami on rye with a half sour pickle. That recommendation sounds
. Unfortunately I won't be there until February 5th

I'm starving now too.I'd strangle someone to death for a REAL knish and a few deli hot dogs (cookedon the flat grill with that great SNAP when you bite through the skin.Can't get anything a million miles close to that where I live now in the SF area.ugh.I'd kill for a chocolate glazed Dunkin Donut too and a large soft chocolate Carvel withchocolate sprinkle.You know, health food.It's that decadent junk food that I eat almost daily when I get back to NY twice a year.If I ate like that all the time, I'd die in a month. But I'd have a smile on my face.nom nom nom. This is making me so hungry. I think I'll be finding Katz and asking for the juicy pastrami on rye with a half sour pickle. That recommendation sounds.

What the frik? you got gypped.ScottNorwood said:
It all depends on which carver you get.The reality is that it doesn't make a huge difference with the pastramis they cook. Pretty much all of the meat is tender and juicy.
Soho/Tribeca/West Village are all pricey.Of the three, I'd take West Village for sure. Tribeca is just close to...nowhere. Pain in the keister to get everywhere, and then to get home. I'd take another look at the financial area. My boy lives close to Wall Street and loves it. Very quiet. Will definitely have less of a neighborhood feel than the others, they are all great walking around areas.If you want to have a great apartment, most for your money, and don't care about local cafes and bars, then Wall St. is a good shot. If you don't care about size of apartment, but are gonna be cruising your neighborhood alot, West Village.
Where were you thinking out of curiousity? I am pretty beat up from the last two nights tho and could use a day off. But then again no work tomorrowAnyone up for watching football tomorrow in a dirty Irish bar? Chime in here...
Not sure yet... probably somewhere pretty mellow and quiet with decent TVs to watch the game. Although I am bit worse for wear myself after the last two nights, so I don't know if I will make it out.Where were you thinking out of curiousity?

O'Hanlons on 14th and 1st is a nice (usually) quiet Irish bar. They have a bunch of TVs above the bar and will actually reciprocate with free drinks if you tip. You guys talking about Katz's are killing me. I want to take their corned beef and put it in a special box next to my heart.Not sure yet... probably somewhere pretty mellow and quiet with decent TVs to watch the game.

No worries. Just eat one - it will be gathering around your heart (and in your arteries) in no time.So wasnt Katz's by the way. Rarely get down that way in the winter - more a warmer weather area with the bars, live music and all around. Plus, if I have to walk more than two blocks from a subway, f' that in this weather.I want to take their corned beef and put it in a special box next to my heart.
I went there for lunch the other day and got some takeout (their eating area was being renovated, should be open now). It's good, but probably not worth going out of your way.
Good to know - thank you.
They include a pro rata share of the common areas in the unit (I know, stupid as can be, but this is how they justify it). Except some agents don't, they just compute it straight off the floorplan. Whatevs.It's impossible to compute, but you would have to know how much area is used for hallways, laundry, mechanicals, storage, et al. Everyone always complains it's unethical (pretty wacky if you ask me), but it is what it is.Where in HK? I'm at 50th & 8th.
I'll send you a PM.
I had friends that lived there and it was great - Had a "community" feel - They had a BBQ area, park for kids, and all kinds of events and I think even a movie night.... they built a lot of friendships there - and it's not a bad location - not far from LES and Union Square etc.
Been to Hill Country & Pio Pio, 2
Have had Dino BBQ brought to me for a superbowl party, I need to make the trek, also need to check out Wolfgang's if it is anything like Lugers.
A guy I work with loves that place, the hamburgers are more like moist meatloaf on a bun, I don't mind it.
You gotta load the burgers up with toppings. Otherwise it's too much beef.
Gonna have to try it out. There's one near my house (woodhaven blvd.)
107 West, while I listed it as Southwest also serves some creole dishes. I've had the Jambalaya and it's excellent.
That may have been the worst post in the history of postssycho:
delta grill is good too.
At least he called us braveThat may have been the worst post in the history of posts
this is the best mexican food in the city, imo. it's just outstanding, especially considering how affordable it is...
