midtown manhattan is known for two things tourists and commuters but it has some amazing cheap eats you know the rules 10 or less we'll be eating pizza halal food pastries and even grilled cheese you don't want to miss it one thing we've been sorely lacking in this series are coffee shops 10 000 coffee is a brand from sydney australia they've just opened and they've been super busy i love the modern minimalistic feel here you can tell they're concentrating on the most important element the coffee you even have bean cards here where you find out the
exact details of the coffee blend you're about to drink let's do one of the espresso cream lattes with the honey cookie the other will be a pinella latte then we'll do the columbia pour over the cool thing is if you order any of their signature coffee it comes with a pairing menu and you get a free sweet on the side what's that ever it's sweet i like that i'm not an expert on coffee but i think i can tell i love a coffee when i don't and i really really love this one like it's really
really good the amount of effort the staff puts in to make each and every one of these coffees absolutely impressive well worth the price espresso cream latte a little chocolate on top and i'm going to take a bite of my little honey cookie after it's got just like the little hint of chocolate flavor this is pure art i don't know if i've ever enjoyed an iced coffee more in my entire life seriously if you were a coffee aficionado owe it to yourself to try this so for a little extra i bought myself a croissant too
we're not that far from times square this should be your first cup in new york city we're talking about first pizza this could be your first coffee in here you have to say i always drink my coffee really slow sometimes it gets cold look at this like i can't stop drinking it's true i live with her it's quite an experience i think this is the first black coffee i've had that uh didn't make me go you know like when you go like 65 degrees in early march this day is an absolute blessing to be spending
it doing cheap eats it's just like icing on the cake this one's a little bit of a no-brainer since the empire state building is right across the street oh it smells so good i got one grandma two cheese little italy pizza has the exact same owners as liquor street pizza and you all know that's my favorite pizza spot in the world actually been here a couple of times love the spot got the margarita slice right here looks a little bit like the nona maria for my bleaker street pizza fans out there you can tell they're
in the bleeker street pizza family because the marinara sauce on top very similar to the tomato sauce on the nona maria and this crust is so flaky i'm usually not someone that compliments the crust of a pizza when i take my first bite but wow you're in midtown manhattan little italy pizza you can do a lot worse for your first new york city slice this is fantastic this is what i imagined when i saw them i'm trying the famous grandma slice which is what they're known for at little italy pizza the nona maria style but
on the sicilian it's a really thin flat crust very different from your traditional sicilian that you'll get in new york city which i always feel like is more puffed up really unique and again i know the owners here i know the ingredients they use it's really good all right let's get one classic got the goods i've been to melt shop many times before i know the quality of this spot got five locations in new york city and in order to keep this cheap eats i had to get the classic melt american and cheddar cheese on
white bread now many of you asked adriana and i how do we stay so slim doing all these cheap eats videos i'll tell you how by splitting stuff sometimes cheers it's something that's so simple but they have really high quality cheese they're american and their cheddar it's just simple just simplicity here that works it's so crunchy i really like that this is definitely one of my favorite things of us really what are some other american foods that you're into outside of grilled cheese now i'm curious i like chicken and waffles okay i never thought about
that combo before and it's so good bacon cheese is also really good i tried it in mexico before but that's american i really like that too they do grilled cheese here they do mac and cheese here you want a slice of the united states no pun intended come here empire state building pointed to pizza radio city music hall points to some amazing halal food everyone's always talking about the halal guys i say give a delos here a look instead i always know it's a good sign when there's a long line forming if it was your
first time what would you recommend i get probably probably you get the spicy rice i look at the sauce on the side combos what do you think spicy how adventurous you feel like going adventurous what i find funny is that a lot of tourists think that hot dogs are what the local new yorkers eat no no no halal food a combo rice platter like this this is real new york this is what the locals are actually eating lamb little pieces of pita chicken in here spicy rice some lettuce and it is just absolutely drenched and
i mean drenched in white sauce big bite a yogurt sauce so creamy so much flavor spicy rice doesn't feel too bad i didn't put any hot sauce on it how much better does it get than this i got radio city music haul right across from us and some epic street food man where has adele's been my entire life they didn't know we were coming they had no clue they didn't pay me to say this this is some of the best halal i've ever had in my entire life honestly blown away i i wasn't expecting it
to be as good as it is knowing new yorkers and seeing a long line like this of non-tourists i'm not surprised you see a long line of locals in new york you know something's up oh my gosh oh wow you can tell i don't really really likes something because he rises his eyebrows and then he goes just one night he's like oh my god my my brain short circus yeah insider tip you want a nice dinner to bring back to your hotel room in midtown stop by here nine bucks you'll feast like a king thank
