Some Of The Greatest Sandwiches In New York

Everyone knows that New York City has some fantastic restaurants. Usually people think of the high end establishments and possibly the pizza places. But another area where New York City shines is its sandwiches. There are so many different types of sandwiches, with influences ranging from Mexican to Indian, Italian, Vietnamese and many others.

These are my favorite sandwich places at the moment.

The Torta – A Mexican style sandwich usually consisting of a meat (chicken or beef) stuffed with lettuce, avocado, cheese, black beans and mayo. One of the best ones in the city can be had at Puebla in the East Village for $6.

The city in general has been in a Vietnamese Sandwich, also known as Banh Mi, frenzy for about a year now. These sandwiches are traditionally served with different types of pork, cilantro, pickled carrots and mayonnaise. An excellent alternative for vegetarians is to get a Portobello mushroom Banh Mi.

The hottest Italian sandwich shop in the city right now is Torissi Italian Specialties on Mulberry Street. Sandwich shop by day and formal restaurant by night, Torissi has something for everyone. Their chicken parm is not to be missed.

A great sandwich shop in the East Village is Sunny and Annie’s Deli on Avenue B and 6th Street. From the outside, it may appear as a normal bodega, but the sandwich list is expensive. One of the most popular items on the menu is the “Pho Real,” a roast beef/Vietnamese sandwich concoction.

For a great healthy sandwich, try Bite on Lafayette Street. The spicy middle eastern turkey sandwich consists of smoked turkey, greens, tomatoes, hummus and spicy sauce. Get it on whole wheat bread for an extra health fix.

For a great bagel sandwich, Murray’s bagels on 6th Ave cannot be beat. Be sure to get there early on a weekend for a great egg and cheese on a bagel, or everything bagel with cream cheese and lox. They will not toast your bagel, and with good reason. These bagels are perfect the way they are.

In addition to food, the author also frequently gives advice on cement repair and painting cement floors.

Delightful Dessert Preparations That Will Not Require Much Effort

Filed under: Nutrition — Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , — Erica Lansky @ 6:31 am

There’s nothing quite like a great dessert to finish of a good meal. We all know we shouldn’t, and we feel guilty eating it, but it’s hard to resist your favorite treats when they are them on offer.

There are a great variety of desserts to enjoy, and whether you prefer hot and cold, you will always have a great choice. You may have guessed by now that I love my desserts, these are some that I’ve sampled recently.

Some of these may already be your favorites, but hopefully there will be some new ones here for you to try too. Why not try them at home adding your own personal touch?

If you like mousse made from regular chocolate, try it for a change using white. There is a long standing debate between brown and white chocolate, but I personally find them to be equally delicious.

Be a bit more adventurous with your chocolate mousse next time you make it. Most of us like summer fruits like Raspberries, so why not drizzle some into the mousse to give the chocolate a bit of fruitiness.

If you think along the same lines like me and want your dessert to look great, you can create wonderful cocktail from ingredients like ice cream using a martini glass.

If you are having guests round to dinner, why not really let your imaginations run riot and produce colorful desserts in a glass that look so good, the compliments will flood in.

Cutting a mango into a rose may sound really difficult, but have a look at the instructions on the internet and you will soon be able to do it yourself really easily. Then just add the filling for a beautiful looking dessert.

Fruit with sorbet or ice cream is always a favorite, and this tasty take on that is simply delicious. Whether using Vanilla or another stronger flavor, this dessert will taste as good as it looks.
