1) G’s coffee shop Inwood – breakfast tacos with everything. 10/10 these were fantastic, slightly too spicy but in the best way, vibe in here was really nice, service was great. Would love to go back for the breakfast burrito

2) Kuro Kirin Espresso & Coffee – flat white, 8/10. Satisfied this coffee snob!

3) El Panadero Bakery on W 179th – tres leches cake. 10/10 this was really nice, moist and light, had much hilarity ordering because we didn’t speak Spanish and they couldn’t understand our British translation of tres leches. Eventually someone stepped in to translate. Very funny.

3) West side bagels on W 141 – everything bagel toasted with lox cream cheese. 6/10 this was small and very light, the cream cheese could have been more flavourful, bagel was fine nothing remarkable

4) Sal and Carmine Pizza on Broadway – pepperoni pizza. 7/10, pretty good but the pepperoni had fennel in it which is quite a strong taste and not my personal preference

5) Maison Pickle – 24 layer chocolate cake. 6/10, this was good but not life changing, I’ve had better chocolate cake in New York. We only managed about 1/3 between two of us. The vibe in here was really nice, we sat at the bar and the staff were great, would love to go back for food

6) Los Tacos No 1 in Chelsea Market – one pork taco one chicken both con todo. 6/10 for the pork, 8/10 for the chicken. Found the pork a bit rich, the chicken was beautiful.

We had planned to get dinner downtown but were too exhausted/full from a rich days eating so got an assortment of fruits and veggies and ate them back in the hotel.

I’m simultaneously surprised at how much we ate and surprised it wasn’t more?? Six stops doesn’t seem that many? The whole thing took just over nine hours of which 5.5 was walking and 3.5 ish was eating. A lot of fun – not sure I’d rush to do it again!

    Damn nice, I thought for a second you meant from west to east side, not 10 hours of walking lmao

  2. I see a lot of NYC tourist itineraries on Reddit and you win.

    Less than 600 calories for a 20 mile walk… Is kcal not what I think it is? Regardless, I admire your walk

    BO’s bagel on 156th street is dependable but pricey. You get what you pay for but you have to pay a lot.

    Damm respect for that walk. I though you had did a few blocks only. But that’s a real pilgrimage

    Yeah, I went to Columbia. Running from 116th down to WTC and taking the train back was a Saturday AM ritual. Our eats places from that time are mostly no longer around though.

    The first time I walked Broadway from Columbia to Wall Street my mind was blown.

    What was your starting location? I’ve always wanted to do this but didn’t know where to start!

    I’d recognize that cake anywhere. One of my favorite cakes in the city.

    Oh my god!! Memory unlocked. I lived on 179st for years growing up and their tree leches was my favorite in the world. Seeing this picture before reading the comments I was like omg that looks like the tres leches from 179th st and lo and behold. Really glad they’re still making it.

    Hum you didn’t eat as much as you walked.
