The meat of BFFGMG

People! Fight the urge to sleep in on Saturday and get to Manny's!



This is pretty much what I always get, and I think I'm going to have a hard time not ordering it tomorrow, despite it being "breakfast" and having a "race" in the afternoon. Some speculate that smoked, pickled meats were an essential component of Merckx's Belgian Mix.

The corned beef hash is highly regarded as well, as are the potato pancakes, kugel, noodle pudding, etc.

All standard North American breakfast foods are available, as well.

Manny's is a classic deli-style cafeteria: you come in, grab a tray, run down the line and collect whatever you want, and get a receipt from the cashier. You don't give her any money; you pay on the way out the door (don't lose the receipt). If two bowls of herring snacks weren't enough, go back, grab another, and turn in your receipt for a new one with the new total. Oh, and cash only.
