That's because their cows are packed full of growth hormone unlike Canada.

We at fast food at least once a day simply cause we couldn't afford to go to resturants 3 times a day. Right, sorry next time I'll blow $50 a plate on food daily.

We spent our money on doing the sights and going to the US Open. You know, something that would create memories?

Not food.

Jesus people on here tend to not understand what a budget is.

Eating at Rocco's once or seeing the Mens US Open final? One plate of food or Broadway, Empire State, Statue Of Liberty... etc.

Riiight.
Walking around drunk does get tiring when you can't get into most clubs and the ones you can get into are lame and cost me $50 cover.

Funnest night was "Fashion night" when we walked store to store, talking up the waitresses and getting free booze.

I didn't know the only fast food in NYC was Papa Johns and Sbarro. Are you sure you actually made it out of the airport?

Did it hurt when your father kicked you in the head repeatedly as a child?

Thats not all we ate.

Best thing I ate though was some calamari and spaghetti at a random restaurant (don't remember what it was called) that had vodka based pasta sauce. It was delicious, but packed and we waited a while for our food.

An 18 inch pizza between two people is only 127 square inches of pizza per person. A 28 inch pizza between 8 people is just under 77 square inches of pizza per person. Of course it seems easy. If you actually eat the pizza as described in the article (2 people per pizza) then each person gets just under 308 square inches of pizza each. Still sound easy? Next time RTFA.

Yeah you seem like someone who would need a bib at the dinner table so really those are your only options...

Are you kidding? New York has some of the best restaurants in the world. There's an infinite amount of choices, at every possible price level. Did you do ANY research before you went? Because when I went to New York in 2008 (while still a University student) I ate amazing food for equally amazing prices.

If you honestly think that Papa John's and Sbarro are the only "budget" food choices in New York, you're seriously delusional. I can't imagine what it must be like being stuck in your one track mind.

I love Applebee's! Have they come to NYC yet?

I sort of think it would be ironic to go to TGIFriday's on a Friday, but I never go because I don't want to be "that guy".

No we didn't research FOOD.
I couldn't care less about eating the best AMERICAN food. We never once took more then a quick glance around when picking somewhere to eat.

Your priorities are food, mine were walking around, seeing as much of NYC as I could, shopping and drinking.

I can't believe I'm getting ridiculed for eating cheap and convenient on a trip to New York to watch tennis and see the city... Wow.

In fairness, you're being ridiculed because you're an idiot. This food thing is just an excuse.
