Sick of food chains!!

Tell me, anyone, who is sick of all the goddam food chains in this city??? Give me some of the authentic fresh food that New York was known for... No more Subway, Quizmos, Burger King, etc etc... And if you're gonna make pizza, do it right like Lombardi's or not at all....

I love the food chains! With such a busy life these days, who has time to cook. I'm sure when we have kids this will change, not the most healthy options. Does Bubba Gump qualify as a chain?

I agree AJ, but unfortunately they are here to stay. And watch the health crisis and the drain on welfare 20 years from now.

I can't stand chains, period! In England many mid-range restaurants are small chains with branches in London/Oxford/Bath/Cheltenham/etc, which I find very strange...they are quite decent, though. The only chain I like in NYC is Starbucks, as well as the small Three Guys franchise (chain of three)

I hate food chains like McDonald's and Burger King. They are bad for the health. Read articles by the FDC and other consumer groups and you will find there are plenty of talk about how bad the food is.

I can't even remember the last time I went to a food chain? And I think you have to live in a certain area - near Times Square or Downtown Brooklyn perhaps - to really see a lot of them.

@Everyone the only food chain I seem to frequent is Energy Kitchen and that too only because they promise everything that they serve is baked/steamed and under 500 calories(meals that is). I have only tried their burgers and they are quite tasty for healthy food.

@Uptowngirl: Do you go there often, or just when the need requires it? I know you said frequently in your post. I was just wondering how frequent is frequent.

@Uptowngirl: I do my best to eat healthy. I admit I go to Sunflower Diner once in a while for a turkey burger, but most of the time I do my best to eat right.
