Sad and vaguely dirty,
this joint is less like a restaurant and more like a bomb shelter
with sandwiches. Lying somewhere in the winding chasm of the Roc Center
underground, I'm comin' here when WWIII breaks out. Not only will
I be safe from whomever is trying to annihilate us, I will have some
limp looking paninis to accompany me in my moment of terror. The odd
thing is that the stuff here is named exactly the same as it is at
Cafe
Metro. Is it an act of the worst kind of plagiarism, or a mere
coincidence? I mean how common are the names chicken calabrese and
turkey siciliano? What ever the case, my panini was a bit of a disaster,
but tasted just fine. I just had to search it for roach parts before
taking the first bite. [MF] Other Locations: Food Merchants (Murray Hill) |
