New York Canes

Lived on Long Island for 26 years. Since then have lived in Florida Alabama and Georgia. Never found anything that compares to the food in NY. Whether it be pizza...Chinese takeout...dirty water dogs...pretzels...bagels...roasted nuts...

Can't even find a **** deli to get a decent egg sandwich in the morning.

Haven't seen a real diner since leaving...where is my complimentary bread and breadstick basket?

Great now I'm hungry.
 
I’m sure there are great restaurants everywhere but I have only been to two cities where you just will not stay in business if you food isn’t amazing - that’s NY and NOLA. Never had a non-amazing meal in those two cities.

Used to love stopping in to see my favorite aunt in Queens when I was running yachts and heading for the Great Lakes. There was a Deli on Beach 116th, had Arab guys behind the counter, ******, Italians, Russian, all sorts of customers, everybody talking to each other getting coffee and papers, and the bagles and egg sandwiches were flying. Just can't find bagels like that away from that water they make them with.
 
I don't know anything about acapurías or egg Fu yang but the Cuban food up north sucks. I can say most of Miami's popular spots have gone down but Small Cuban joints still bring it.
Gotta go across the tunnel to Union City for some decent Cuban food

Chicago and San Fran are as good...

I lived across the bay in Rock Ridge for a couple years but went to LA more than SF

In LA, Pizza Buono in Echo Park can concoct some amazing goat cheese pies.

I remember a few AMAZING Chinese and Italian restaurants in SF. I thought SF hipster food (burgers, gastropubs) was inferior to Los Angeles

Only spent a couple nights in Chicago and had great pizza both nights

Never thought anything was ever amazing in Nola, but every single restaurant was **** good
