Gourmet Supermarket
60th Street between 4th and 5th ave.
Cost $7
After some hardcore Christmas eve shopping (which didn't really result in many purchases) at 5th Avenue I went in search of some lunch, and after walking 10 Blocks (1 mile) it was a relief to find a supermarket that offered meals to go. The 10 block trek across Midtown took in several sandwich bars only to find that they had essentially run out of food and I wasn't really in the mood for a full restaurant lunch. What still amazes me after a few days here is the amount of meat that can be squeezed between to slices of bread let alone a roll or a bun. Pictured is my Turkey BLT, with turkey essentially being the beach mark for evaluating
Pastrami Queen
Lexington Ave between 77th and 78th streets.
Cost $15
Every sandwich / Burger / salad came with a quarter pound of pastrami. It tasted good and being a Jewish establishment made it by far the best meal you could buy on a Christmas Day.
Fine Foods Supermarket
Bryant Park
Cost $8
Toasted turkey,brie and avocado sandwich. One word 'awesome'. You can taste all the other ingredients when the sandwich is not completely stuffed with meat.
