Hmmm, we did get a whole pie.  I bet there's a place nearby that sells by the slice.  I wish Famous Rays was still open in Greenwich Village.  Awesome slice of cheesy goodness, especially at 1:00am!

Oh yeah a bunch of places sell it by the slice there. That’s the one place on my list that doesn’t. So if I don’t go there, that’ll be a big part of why.

You mentioned pastrami and I have had delicious pastrami sandwiches at Katz's Deli and Junior's.  Both are iconic deli restaurants.

Definitely Katz. 🙂  Tenement Museum is nearby if you have time.  Really nice.

My wife and I took a city tour, and the lunch stop was Katz’s Deli.   On my own, I would not have previously stopped there.  After having the pastrami sandwich, I would never hesitate to stop there again.

I started working on this tonight. I wanted something where I could look at where I’m at and see everything I want to see in that area as well as the nearby food places from my list. The food is in red. I think I may change the breakfast and dessert places to different colors. And I think I want to add in my coffee places and my rooftop bars.

I definitely need this bowl.

What is blue number 1?  Looks a little north for Tavern on the Green.

Good for you! We'll be back on the Magic for a B2B out of New York next September. 😎

Way to go Jeff!

[Saint Greg]

Speaking of ballpark choices. Now I have the benefit of having read Mets fans comments on the food all season. I think she covers everything they talk about except the dole whip. Which they say is just like Disney.

Looks about midpoint between turtle pond and strawberry fields?  Both are worth visiting.  Feeding the turtles is discouraged but fun.

Love your reviews and looking forward to this one.

First time to New York.

 

It's an app called Wanderlog. There's a pay version but I'm just using the free one. It says you can export to google maps. I think google owns it. The map looks just like google. But you can plan every step of your trip in this app.

Looking forward to your review Greg.

 

I have seen all those shows and out of the 3, Wicked was by far my favorite!  (NY born and bred)

 

As MJ stated, be very careful walking around the city.  Try not to look like a tourist!!

 

Have a fabulous time!!

This was nice to see in the inbox this morning.

 

Have Mets surpassed Yankees as premier team in New York?
 

“If you just look at these two organizations, I think what a lot of Yankee fans aren’t coming to terms with or accepting is the fact that, in my opinion, as it stands right now the Mets are just a better-run organization,” Ryan said, 1:23 in player above). “It happened so drastically with the sale of the team and Steve Cohen coming in, but now you have the Mets with an owner who’s willing to spend every dollar to put a winner on the field. And you see that with the Scherzer contract, extending Lindor – who has silenced his critics as of late, he’s been unbelievable.”

Things to look out for at Central Perk.

People digging holes late at night.

A bald, stocky guy wearing a high school letterman's jacket and driving his dad's classic Chevy.

A white van that may be rocking, DO NOT enter.
