Lunch. Same deal, chicken instead of chickpeas this time.

 

[solewoman]

Thank you for the suggestions. Went with old faithful...tacos. Hit up Los Tacos NO.1 so damn good.

The chicken especial a fried quesadilla. With guacamole.

The crust was so flaky and perfect. I was concerned it was going to be soggy.

What’s the must eats in nyc?

You can go to Negril Village. They have one in the city and one in Brooklyn. I know the one in Brooklyn is open now for indoor and outdoor dining, but not certain if that's the case for the Manhattan location. You can also hit up sweet chick as well.

Go to a bodega and get a chop cheese sandwich

Why are all the golden crusts only 3 stars

Why are all the golden crusts only 3 stars

Probably the attitude. Each location operates differently though. Some cook on the premises and some cook elsewhere and then delivered to the premises. But if you're going to do Jamaican, I would look elsewhere. Far too many other options in NYC to settle on Golden Crust.

Mandatory. My girlfriend had never heard of chopped cheese until I made her try one. Now she won't drive back without stopping at a bodega first.

Go workout so you can build up your appetite so you can eat more, solewoman . Not enough hours in the day for you to maximize your trip.

lol they don't care about service at all, even more so than most Jamaican spots.

What I like about Golden Crust is they don't skimp out on the extra sauce and gravy.

I hate going to Jamaican spots were they give you dry *** jerk chicken with no sauce.

Nah, I am saying you got all these suggestions but you can't get to more than 1-2 more spots now because you gotta be full.

No bodyshaming / Disrespect

Grab that pickled octopus.

I've had it before. It's dank.

Might roll with that and some dolmadakia.

Moussaka is always good

 

[Comparison Ford]

Moussaka is always good

Yeah I love moussaka and pastitsio, but we're trying to keep things on the lighter side tonight.

Might split a piece of baklava though.

 

[deusavertat]

Made some Curry chicken and shrimp, "stewed beans", and white rice.

My middle eastern coworkers stay tryna feed me baklava. That stuff is way too sweet. I can feel my teeth rotting and blood glucose going up while eating it

no I dont wanna take this whole box home with me

 

[biggie62]

I like a lot of middle eastern food but I can’t stand baklava. The sweetness doesn’t bother me, the consistency does. Yellow/orange mangos are the same thing for me. While green mangos I’m cool with.

 

[Nouss]

Damn, I always thought Baklava was eastern European.

 

[deusavertat]

Damn, I always thought Baklava was eastern European.

It is eaten by Arab, "persian" and Eastern European cultures (e. Turkey).

 

[DCAllAfrican]

I need a half-sugar version of Baklava because the last few times I've had it I could barely eat any of it because it was so damn sweet.

I enjoy the texture of it though.
