(REVIEW) I’ve been a patron for several years, and I’m happy to say that Blue Ribbon Sushi has survived the coronavirus pandemic. While seating is plentiful and comfortable, the indoor booths are beginning to show their age. Wooden bench seats have minor cracks and other faults.

I ventured with my roommate down Exchange Place hoping my card wouldn’t get declined wherever we’d end up for dinner. We noticed a bright colored sign that read, “Weekday Special.

It is hard not to notice the flood of Facebook shares and Twitter retweets that have recently swirled around campus: Chick-fil-A is coming to the Financial District. The excitement is not only based on the fact that it will to be the third location in New York City, or Chick-Fil-A’s largest proposed restaurant, but that the address is 144 Fulton Street, just a few minutes’ walk from school.

(REVIEW) The lamb, combined with the sauce and rice, tastes warm and delicate yet also rich and vibrant. The flavor is savory and nutty, the texture is soothing to taste. The naan is soft and spongy, the lettuce is crisp. I finish my meal with a smile and a full stomach. It tasted as if the world were at my feet. At this humble food cart, I seemingly discovered a whole new universe of deliciously cheap lunches.
