    New York City is an incredible food city because of the diversity of the food available. On this New York City food tour we started off the day by going to one of the most famous restaurants in NYC, Katz's Delicatessen to eat pastrami. Next, we ate at a restaurants in New York City Chinatown called Spicy Village for an amazing pan of “Spicy Big Tray Chicken,” and for dinner I had chicken over rice from The Halal Guys, one of the most popular New York City street foods.
    1:21 Katz's Delicatessen - There are few places in New York City for food as famous as Katz's Delicatessen, an absolute legendary deli in the city. Although it’s well overpriced, because it’s such a heritage NYC institution, it’s one of the must eat restaurants in the city. I arrived early in the morning, hoping to beat the crowds, which I did (go for breakfast if you want to avoid lines). After a little contemplation, I decided to go for the reuben with pastrami and a half of corned beef. The corned beef was alright, but the reuben with pastrami was incredible. Total price - $48.56
    13:32 Spicy Village - Next up on this New York City food tour my wife and I walked around New York City Chinatown and eventually found our way over to a restaurant called Spicy Village (thanks to Monty for this recommendation). The one dish I mainly wanted to eat at Spicy Village was the Spicy big tray chicken, a pan of fried chicken parts and noodles in a spicy and mouth numbing broth. It was everything I had hoped for and more, and it was one of the best foods I ate in New York City! Total price - $22 - But along with the spicy big tray chicken we had an extra dish as well.
    18:32 Times Square - One of the busiest and most recognized squares in the world is Times Square in New York City. So in the afternoon, happy and full of Spicy Village and Katz’s Deli, we walked over to Times Square to enjoy the people watching and the ridiculous amount of lights and action.
    20:19 The Halal Guys - While walking through Times Square I remembered that one of the most popular New York City street food stalls wasn’t too far away. So we walked over to The Halal Guys, and I ordered chicken over rice. The chicken over rice itself is prepared pretty plain, but the flavor in The Halal Guys is all in the white and red sauce, both of which are incredibly flavorful and delicious. It was my first time to eat at The Halal Guys, and I’m pretty happy I did. Chicken over rice - $7
    It was a great first full day in New York City with some incredibly delicious food. Probably my favorite dish of the day was the spicy big tray chicken from Spicy Village, but all the food was so food.

    Fantastic as always! What I love about you is that every SINGLE video, you chow down. And I mean, you REALLY gobble up food!
    Sooo many food reviewers on youtube take a tiny little bite or nibble of the food that borderlines on offensiveness, and then they go into some 5 minute soliloquy of describing the food in incoherent thoughts. It comes off fake unless you actually EAT!
    NO ONE EATS in their food reviews!
    But YOU- YOU SIR, are always gobbling down like it's your last meal on earth! It's actually mind boggling how much you eat in your videos lol. But that's what makes it genuine and AUTHENTIC! Love it!

    I am enjoying, very much, your World tour of food. I had a Jewish friend in NYC who explained that there are two types of deli in NYC. One serves hand cut (thick) pastrami and meat, the other machine cut (thin). He took me to both on separate days and I loved both. The hand cut is more tender but the machine cut, although perhaps a little tougher, was also very tender due to the thinness of the multiple slices. Also, not to take anything away from this tour, Toronto where I live which the UN calls the World's most cosmopolitan city offers every food you have consumed so far on this tour. Next time, consider coming here for at least a week and try it all. 👍🏻

      Dark Secret: the "white sauce" in almost all Halal carts in NYC, including Halal Guys, it generic mayo mixed with water. That's why, when Marc read the ingredients of the packet, it was mainly soybean oil, eggs, vinegar.
      Real "white sauce" i.e. Tzatziki sauce should be plain yogurt, lemon juice, crushed garlic, and shredded cucumber.
