We spent a lot of time at Grey Dog's.
a) It's very close to my dad's apartment
b) They have free internet!
c) They make some tasty coffee and food.
On one of our several trips there, we opted for some breakfast. We shared a nice breakfast quesadilla with egg whites. Mmmm...
The real highlight though was the 'home fries'. Nice and thinly grated and crispy. Very nice addition to our otherwise healthy breakfast.
2. Banh Mi at Baoguette 120 Christopher Street New York, NY
New York is experiencing a surge in Banh Mi restaurants. Basically they are Vietnamese sandwiches. I had a really great veggie one. It came on a nice crispy bun with some tasty pickled daikon/radish/carrot type stuff and the faux meat was really tasty. The only downside is there was mayo (which was not listed no the menu but I should've asked about) so I had to eat around that. The online menu doesn't list the veg option, but it was there when we went.

3. Pretzel Croissant at City Bakery on 3 West 18th Street New York, NY
In the wintertime (well, really year round) you can get the richest tasting hot chocolate, but seeing as my visit was filled with 85+ degree days, I decided to keep it on the cool side opting for refreshing iced teas. But that didn't distract me from the real prize here: pretzel croissants. Flaky and lovely on the outside but crispy and salty on the outside. This is a must have snack if you're in the neighborhood.
