    Too bad they won't do this every week. LOL.
    I stopped eating there once a week since their prices are 7.50 now instead of 6.95 earlier and like 5.95 last year. I rather hit up the XPL across the street. It's cheaper and about the same amount of calories when you inhale cookie, soda, and sandwich w. fries at Gourmet 53.

    During their $3 special, they limited it to 1 lunch per person btw or what would stop people from placing orders of 50 lunches for their entire office. Unless you decide to wait on the crazy line 3 separate times??? They also tried to charge 1.25 for soda but I wouldn't bite. $3 lunch was all I needed.

    keke is laughing notion. I'm not korean but I recognize it. ;P

    man, people were just jacking their sodas anyway as usual, whether they paid for it or not.

    keke, i didn't know keke was a korean thing.
    anyawys, i went out and got myself a combo meal from XPL..$5 with a free can of soda..wow, pretty good and food ain't that bad either.

    I'm about to go do the same thing actually - hit up XPL near me. mkim, do I know you? lol. doubt it since we don't work for the same company but we have a similar occupation?

    well, keke is an asian/korean thing. and i believe mainly girls do it. kinda weird for a dude btu never know...

  7. mkim1206

    I don't think i know you but we both seem like cheap bastards..lol i mean, keke. =)

    what? you're the korean female version of me? that's sick! and i may be cheap but i still spend a lot on food throughout the week (heck, it's my largest expense usually - as well it should be). me gots to eat despite living my life of non-luxury.

    xpl was good today. i got their falafel w. rice for the first time as a changeup. good tasting falafel!

    well, let me know if you know any other cheap places around this area.

  10. StreetMeasOnsumer3008

    Haha. You probably figured out most of the cheap ones around us by now. There aren't too many. If you're willing to break the $10 ceiling, then you can eat whatever. ;P

    I was thinking about checking out the japanese grocery/take out place on 47th street(bet lex and 3rd, next to Onya) tomorrow. Read the review here and sounds nice. $5.99 for a bowl of udon. I hate paying like $9 for a lousy bowl of udon from a deli.

  12. StreetMeasOnsumer3008

    Have fun with udon. Hope you like it. Not too into soba or udon. I'm really just a ramen fan.

    I tried the ramen from menkui tei(sp?) a few weeks ago and i thought it was pretty good. only problem is it's abit too far from us. loved their dumplings.
