This place likely won't work either as it's geared towards the lunch-crowd. Also, it's overpriced.

ReplyDeletePlenty of "lunch crowd" workers in Union Square. And kale and quinoa beats meat pies (vomit) any day of the week. In case you hadn't noticed, that whole area is health nut central.
ReplyDeleteNOTORIOUS,
ReplyDeleteYES!
so fucking generic.
ReplyDeleteI'm happy there's a healthy option close to me - but I give it a year max.
ReplyDeleteYou know what would work well at that corner? A deli run by regular, friendly people - with cheap breakfast sandwiches, lottery tickets, beer and snacks.
ReplyDeleteBut, no, everything has to be fucking "luxury"
(and yes, as a long time resident of the area, I am aware that Two Brothers deli was there for over ten years before getting gentrified out - that's the lament)
I hear what you're saying 1:53 but are a bunch of salads and sandwiches really "luxury"? Is wanting to eat something that's not deep fried and smothered in cheese the province of snobs? If anything I feel like NYU has pushed out the vegetarians and health food types and now we have "restaurants" dedicated to mac n' cheese.
