A few weeks back, I went on a self-guided noshing walk around the Lower East Side and Chinatown; I highly recommend it as a way to spend a sunny Sunday. I followed it up with a ridiculously long walk — hope that helped to counterbalance the caloric intake.
Heebster at Russ & Daughters (I only ate half)
Full sour pickle at The Pickle Guys
Jam filled square doughnut at Doughnut Plant
Optional stop at Kossar's Bialys (for breakfast later in the week)
Wave hello to Mark at Pizza a Casa
Tastes at the Hester Street Fair: Sigmund Pretzel Shop cheddar and truffle pretzel, Guerrilla Ice Cream's Peking Duck ice cream
Spicy pork jerky from Malaysian Beef Jerky
If you can handle more, there are other good stops, but I was definitely done by then (I didn't even get any jerky, actually). Eat and enjoy!
*Both the Lower East Side and my initials!

My girlfriends and I LOVE doing that!! I love Russ & Daughters for an onion bagel with tradition lox and cream cheese – have yet to attempt the Heebster. Then we love cupcakes at Sugar Sweet Sunshine. Burgers at Mikey’s Burgers are great. Tai Pan Bakery on Canal for a roast pork bun and red bean bun. And ice cream at The Ice Cream Factory, also in Chinatown. The Hester Street Fair for Luke’s Lobster rolls. Obviously, we can’t eat this all in ONE trip, but we adore wandering around LES for these treats 🙂

I’ve wanted to do that particular descent into noshingness since years. So thank you for a timely pathfinding mission – my research has not kept up. And the square doughnut will indubitably keep me from rolling all over the place.
