My suggestion: Move to Wiscopennsyltucky or wherever if you're gonna eat that shit that has no business being in NYC. Any New Yorker eating those places deserve to have a bad experience.
Fuck those Italian mom-n'-pop joints. I don't trust them, their prices, their quality and the wetbacks who prep the dishes.
Again, gtfo then.
I'm not stepping into those places in the 1st place. Chains and corporate-controlled establishments is what I choose. Fuck the mom-n'-pops.
