The game is on

Once the transportation has been committed to and the progeny pawned off on their mother, the planning begins. I go to NYC for one reason, to eat. Sure I'll take in a show, shop at Century 21, catch the farmers market in Union Square, etc. But I'm only there to eat, which I guess I already mentioned.

It naturally starts with where to eat but I always need to go back to what to eat first. Like, YES to Mission Chinese Food but YES also to Chinese Food. So, do I spend my meal on a traditional Chinatown feast or go to MCF? Better yet, Sunday's at Parm the dinner special is simply listed as Chinese. Everything has always been sublime at Torrisi Italian Specialties, so why not?

I have narrowed the what down to these in no particular order:

Gyro
Pizza
Bagel/Schmear
Pasta
Pasta (You can't eat just one)
Chinese
Sushi
2e Breakfast (Dumplings and Scallion Pancake)
Burger
New School Deli
Old School Deli
Korean Chicken Wings

Now I need to fit that into a 66 hour window. If I only sleep 16 hours over the three nights, I should be able to complete my list.

Of course, when I get to the list of where, it doesn't include, places that don't fit into a category above but will be consumed, none the less; Economy Candy, Donut Plant, random cupcake shop, etc.

Additionally, we have those places that if I'm in the neighborhood, well yes sir or mam, we are having a quick stop and nosh. Little Pie Co, Posiedon Greek Pastry Shop, any Shake Shack, Num Pang, Xi'an Famous Foods, Eataly, the list is endless. Based on my level of gastrodistress some neighborhoods have to be avoided all together.

First person to guess where I took this snap get's $5.00 in 2eBucks!
35 days to go. I'm going the blog route to get your input on what to eat and where to eat it. Thank you in advance for the calories.
