PROFILE: Downtown Lunch’er “Chris”
As is customary here on Midtown Lunch, every Tuesday we’ll profile a different lunch’er and get their recommendations for places to eat in Downtown NYC. This week, we have Chris who is a big fan of a certain sandwich shop and wants to find some fancy breakfast sandwiches.
Name: Chris Rojas
Occupation: Leading client relationships with investment banks for a global provider of consulting and software. On my taxes I just put “sales.”
Where you work: Broadway & Pine
Age: 38
Favorite kinds of food: BBQ, Comida Latina, Indian, Vietnamese, Japanese
Least favorite foods: Salad, pasta that is not either homemade or expertly prepared, plain pizza.
Favorite lunches downtown: At Toasties on John St. (btw. Nassau & B’way) my all-time favorite is the smoked chicken deluxe (chicken cutlet with pastrami and smoked mozzarella). Runners-up include: Chicken cheddar (that’s a cutlet and there’s bacon) and hot turkey #4 (freshly carved turkey, cole slaw, swiss, cranberry sauce). The lunchbox at Diwan-E-Khaas (Multiple Locations) – the meat may vary but the veg is always dal makhani and palak paneer (spicy lentils and spinach with cheese, respectively). If I’m famished and willing to spend more than $10 I’ll go to Ise on Pine St. (btw. William & Pearl) and impress my lunch mates with an immense bowl of katsu curry (pork, obv).
