Food: favorite bites in nyc

Here are a few of our favorite food finds for a day of shopping!

Magnolia Bakery
This west village neighborhoold treasure located on bleeker street is a must for anyone with a sweet tooth! nothing on the menu has less than a spectacular dose of sugar. The lines can be outrageouly long but its worth it! hey, and its convienently located next to the Marc by Marc Jacobs boutique...What more can a girl ask for?

Hampton Chutney.
once you step into this calm little Dosa shop you will forget all the caoses of the city. this is definetly our favorite lunch while spending a day in SoHo. what are dosas? well there light crispy sour dough crepes filled with indian inspired ingredients like the classic indian spiced patatoe filling, but both of our favorite is the one with spinach goat cheesse and roasted onions. and you get to pick a chutney either cilantro, Curry, Mango, Tomato, or Peanut, they are all delicious and tangy, everything here tastes homey and comforting...dont forget to try their yummy oatmeal cookies and authentic indian chai tea!
