Congratulations, you’ve graduated from the Cronut-and-Katz’s pastrami level of your NYC eating education. In this advanced class, we’ll explore lesser-known and often overlooked foods that actually taste better anyway.
Catapones at Cachapas Y Mas
A sandwich, but instead of bread, the insides (the best ones are filled with cheese, shredded chicken, or pork) are held together by two giant smashed, fried plantains. (1329 St. Nicholas Ave., Manhattan & 107 B Dyckman St., Manhattan)
Sesame Pancake at Vanessa's Dumplings
Vanessa's is best known for its cheap eponymous dumplings, but the sesame pancakes — which consist of warm bread stuffed with pickled vegetables and either duck, beef, chicken, or egg — are the real stars. Dousing with sriracha recommended. (In Manhattan: 118A Eldridge St. & 220 E 14th St; In Brooklyn: 310 Bedford Ave.)
