IS NEW YORK CITY REALLY AS HOT AS THE LOCALS SAY IT IS?
Touting NYC as a city with some of the world’s best fare may be an overstatement. With new chefs opting for less competitive markets in exchange for the opportunity to be able to express their culinary talents, New York City is not as hot of a dining mecca as in years past. Don’t agree????? Then let us hear from you! Agree????? Let us hear from you!
