The options are kinda limited though since we can't take the train northbound (goes to long island city/queens). i used to hit up happy well being, white castle, or that per lb buffet at rock center. sometimes i'll take the 6 downtown to the green market. taking the 6 is more of a planned thing than roulette because the connection between that and the E/V trains is a ridiculous 5 minute twistyturny walk.

It definitely isn't an issue if it's a pick up and go type of dealie. I’m near the 6-E-V

If I had a two hour lunch, Jackson heights would be doable. would you ride the train for 30 min just to visit the tamale lady at jackson heights?

Just a few stops in and he's in Jackson Heights... I wonder if he ever hops on it into Queens, that would be pretty awesome too. Just a few stops in and he’s in Jackson Heights…

I'm by Herald Sq I take the train to lunch all the time! Just today I went to Union Sq to get a roll at the Farmers Market to go with the soup I made! Sometimes to W 4th to get Mamouns and recently when I wanted to kill my boss I got Mamouns and then went to a bar. Ha! Take that! that’s true, joe r, but that’s a little tougher to gauge as far as the roulette goes…. I’m by Herald Sq I take the train to lunch all the time!

The names of the dishes are so fun to day-tong tong berong? The Perkedel Jagung shrimp corn fritters were super greasy in a delicious way. I had Bali Nusa take out last night!

I'm going to try it soon. I am on Wall St with the 2/3 available so could go to Brooklyn easily. I love the idea! I’m going to try it soon.
