Snacks in Midtown | New York City, USA
One
particularly grey day found the travel bunnies heading toward Central
Park in search of a little snow/ ice and the perfect photo
opportunity. Having only tried a few days earlier to locate the
infamous Waffles
and Dinges food
cart it was to my absolute delight that the other travel bunnie
literally walked into it at the east corner entrance to the park.
Now, for the uninitiated, a dinge is any number of different toppings
that are placed on your waffles upon ordering and what is a waffle I
hear you ask, only the very best dessert that you can order from a
truck anywhere in the New York City!
We
ordered one Brussels waffle with Whipped crème and one Liege with
Nutellea. Even though many, many months have passed since we visited
NYC I can still clearly remember how the freshly toasted waffles were
crunchy on the outside and warm and gooey in the inside (particularly
the Liege). As we strolled through the semi frozen paths of Central
Park I was unsure whether when the time came I would let this little
dessert secret out of the bag when I got home to blog about it but
here I am..... and so the secret is out. NYC's best cheap eat!
Total
Bunnie Dollars Spent: $12USD (excluding tips)
Our
next stop was for something a little more substantial before an early
afternoon show on Broadway. After exiting Central park on the
westside exit we headed into Columbus Circle and up to Bouchon
Bakery.
This foodcourt style, open seating cafe offers an array of beautiful
pastries but after our earlier dessert for breakfast option we
decided more sugar was not wise. I had an express lunch combo which
came with soup and salad while the other travel bunnie wanted a
Gruyère and ham sandwich which was also a tasty, quick option for
bunnies on the run. We were lucky to even get a seat given it was the
peak of lunch time but the food was light and tasty enough to justify
the wait.
A
little French flair on the fly cost these bunnies $20USD(or
thereabout).
