You wouldnt see them gather at a Chinese Restaurant but a place to call their own where it's more funky, loud with big murals adorning the walls and bright interiors with bold settings that is eye-catching. The Y-fers and X-fers would consider it more cool in such places hiding in the capsules, wagons to enjoy their meal.

BBQ SpareRibs at New York New York at $14.90 is a recommended dish. It's succulent although the sauce that covers it could be improved. However it cannot be compared to Tony Roma's ever popular slab of thick meaty Spareribs which is drenched in a more tasty sauce. Current PROMOTIONS ~ Diners paying by DBS cards with a minimum amount, will get to enjoy a bowl of Soup Of The Day ~ PUMPKIN SOUP. I felt priviledged to be offered the only bowl served FOC which I thankfully and gleefully accept as I loved western soup with its thick creamy slurpilicous taste.Current PROMOTIONS ~ Diners paying by DBS cards with a minimum amount, will get to enjoy a bowl of Soup Of The Day ~ PUMPKIN SOUP. I felt priviledged to be offered the only bowl served FOC which I thankfully and gleefully accept as I loved western soup with its thick creamy slurpilicous taste.This was an enjoyable dish for beefeaters ~ Juicy, Tender Beef Chunks well stewed except a tad salty, to go with a layer of Creamy Mashed Potatoes. At $13.90 I could only finish half of this having had a bowl of soup, so sharing this dish is a good option if you consider a whole lots of others dishes available in the menu. This is a carbo meal, good for anyone who needs them to energise the body before any sports? No, I will get sleepy with this heavy stuff and will set me to a slower pace instead.
The Chicken Burger is also huge by standard and it's definitely American style that besides Asians having smaller mouth, we also have smaller stomach to wolve down at one go. Nevertheless we also eat anything and everything.Creamy Pasta Carbonara with Funghi and topped with a Chicken Chop and the plate was licked clean.Creamy Pasta Carbonara with Funghi and topped with a Chicken Chop and the plate was licked clean.



How many New York New York Restaurants are there in Singapore? Answer is 5, mostly in suburban hubs whilst the Flagship Restaurant is at Citilink , the interconnecting link for pedestrians going from CityHall to Suntec or Marina South area or vice versa, a perpetually packed and crowded eatery. When I last visited the AMK Hub then in 2007, the new restaurant was packed and snake queues lining up to have a taste of the western meal. We decided to go to E!Hub in Pasir Ris instead as the crowd was lesser but we were told the previous nite, the restaurant was drawing full seatings such that when I placed an order for steak, it was not available then and this is truly disappointing.











This Cheesy Pizza is quite nice and this was a starter to our main course.














We gave the Desserts a miss as we are satisfactorily full that even the most tempting dessert will not appeal to us, maybe another time another day. Will we be back again? Yes if we need to do a meetup as it's a nice place to do small talks and hang out and as for the food, well it's reasonably good. Restaurants do not need to draw only food connoisseurs but as long it appeal to the masses in all aspects, it will continue to draw in the crowds.

RIBS!!!!

Wow, they looked quite delicious and mouth watering but was it comparable than Tony Roma's one? We had that last time and the feeling still lingering in our mind... yummie ribs...

Where else can we get good ribs in S'pore? The cheesy pizza looked big and yummy as well.. Tam Ciak must like them a lot... but cabonara pasta looked soo little only....where got enough for Tua Pui to eat?? Have to order many dishes lioa lor.....

j2kmf ~ if we are not gluttons, what are u? I am on liquid diet now...

PenangTuaPui ~ No Tony's much better. If I can make the pizza looks big I can only make you look slim...how about that; no pizza isnt what it looked.

Kenny Mah, no wonder u looked so slim...living on nutella? that's fattening.

BSGlutton, no I must say NewYork City has plenty of good good food.

The BBQ SpareRibs at $14.90 is definitely a steal, much cheaper from most outlets in Penang ... looks appetizing too.
