LTK is at the top of the price range($10-12 for lunch), but great food and nice portions. I had the chicken drunken noodle. Good spice, lots of chicken. Big take out business as well apparently. Schnitz Truck is gone now, sad. </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/company-moving-to-53rd-street-and-park-ave/page/2#post-5005 Wed, 18 Nov 2009 15:26:40 -0500 The Prez 5005@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>I like Ariyoshi, but for dinner only. My experience at Donburiya during lunch time made me want to rename the place to Dumbariya. The waitresses were fairly inept.</p> <p>If you like Indian, Bricklane II (right near Hakata Grill) has a pretty good lunch special: $10, and you get an entree, unlimited amount of daal, vegetables, basmati rice and naan bread. </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/company-moving-to-53rd-street-and-park-ave/page/2#post-4942 Fri, 13 Nov 2009 14:16:04 -0500 mkim1206 4942@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>I went to Gulluoglu today for lunch. I had a pressed sandwich, spinach pastry, lentil soup and 4 different kinds of baklava.<br /> They were all fresh and tasty but the service was slow...though very friendly.<br /> Baklavas were actually a bit disappointing. I like the ones that are flaky, abit chewy and crunch but these were abit too waterly and not as flaky. </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/company-moving-to-53rd-street-and-park-ave/page/2#post-4908 Thu, 12 Nov 2009 13:12:22 -0500 mkim1206 4908@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>Today I finally got to try the fried pork chops from Cravings truck which was parked right infront of my office building. They gave 2 chops with lots of sauce to eat with rice. I don't know..it was pretty ok but too salty for my liking. i didn't really like it that much. Maybe i will try the fried chicken next Thursday. </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/company-moving-to-53rd-street-and-park-ave/page/2#post-4907 Thu, 12 Nov 2009 13:10:10 -0500 mkim1206 4907@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>Ariyoshi had $12 lunch special which was excellent.<br /> You get tons of side dishes like fresh tofu, 2 pieces of sashimi, 3 gyozas, mini hamburg steak, pickles, soup, salad and as a main, i got a salmon teriyaki. I thought it was a great deal. I left super full. </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/company-moving-to-53rd-street-and-park-ave/page/2#post-4862 Wed, 11 Nov 2009 10:13:06 -0500 mkim1206 4862@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>any comments on Ariyoshi on 53rd and Donburiya? </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/company-moving-to-53rd-street-and-park-ave/page/2#post-4763 Mon, 09 Nov 2009 13:23:15 -0500 kcijones001 4763@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>fresco </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/company-moving-to-53rd-street-and-park-ave/page/2#post-4695 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 13:22:15 -0500 mkim1206 4695@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>Today was the day for Hawaiian island Grill on 53rd street. It was co operating with Hakata grill. I actually don't know the differences between the two except they each had their own menu.<br /> I ordered the pork chop and my coworker ordered some kind of stirred fried beef. Both were good but I liked my pork chop better. The owner at the counter was extremely nice and gave us big samples of Kalbi and huli huli(sp?) chickens for us to try. Kalbi was tasty but the chicken was nothing different than your average rotisserie chicken.<br /> The inside secret is that you can go there and order different kinds of prepared meat, fish, noodle and rice for $7!!! He just dumped a huge amount of food and only charged $7! I couldn't believe it. </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/company-moving-to-53rd-street-and-park-ave/page/2#post-4652 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 13:27:56 -0500 mkim1206 4652@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>I went to Men kui tei for lunch today. We ordered a plate each of shumai and gyoja which were delicious. it was good to know that they were all hand made in the store by this old grandpa who seems to know what he was doing. hehe. I ordered Miso ramen which was delicious as well. Not as salty as ones from Sapporo which is def plus for me. </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/company-moving-to-53rd-street-and-park-ave/page/2#post-4562 Tue, 03 Nov 2009 17:20:12 -0500 Apikoros18 4562@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>I say avoid Rickshaw!!
