12909777, Things to do/Places to eat in NYC?
Posted by snacks, Mon Oct-12-15 09:06 AM
My brother and I are going up there this weekend. He is the ultimate homebody, so the burden is on me to keep him out the room as much as possible. This is also either of our first time going w/o a spouse or parents, respectively, so although I know there's plenty to do, I'm just not used to not catering to anyone else when I travel (me and my brother are pretty much the same people, I'm just a little more outgoing). This is why I need your help.
Saturday night is covered, but Friday and Saturday afternoon is wide open at this point. We're staying in midtown, if that helps.

Cafe Piccolo - breakfast. amazing croissants, very good sandwiches on them. get that and a cappuccino and people watch.
Boi Noodle House - used to be a Vietnamese lunch counter, now has table service. Very good (not great) Vietnamese food.
Kati Junction - kati rolls are kind of like Indian burritos on savoury bread. inexpensive, very good, has vegetarian options
