racer42 0 #4 July 14, 2005 Not only can you not get decent bagels outside of the five boroughs, there is a serious drought of decent Chinese food west of the Hudson and east of the Bay Bridge.

marcandalysse 0 #6 July 14, 2005 Quoteno one understands me when I get so out of sorts when some menu says NY-Styled (anything) All of these chinese fast food joints that have sprung up in Florida over the last few years (they all have the same menus and look the same) have signs in the windows saying 'NY Style'.....and my comment to the girl behind the counter was "How about making me some CHINESE STYLE FOOD??? Chinese food here in Florida is mostly AWFUL! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I moved down to FL from NY about two years ago and I definitely miss the bagels. Pick a Bagel rocked! I also really liked Bagels and Co (76th and York) and some other midtown bagel place I can't think of the name right now, but they had the BEST lobster salad.
