2. Breakfast Sandwich. Oh breakfast sandwich, how I love you. Nothing improves a walk-of-shame like stopping for a bacon-egg-n-cheese on a sesame bagel with salt-peppah-ketchup. It is greasy, fatty, and the most perfect morning treat in all the world.
3. Macaroni and Cheese. Do I really have to explain this? It's good. Done.
4. Steak. I can't not put steak and keep my man card. It just so happens that I love steak. My favorite steak is Delmonico's Mignon (also one block from 10 Hanover Sq). This also happens to be David Wright's (3rd basemen, NY Mets) favorite restaurant. I used to go there once a year for restaurant week because well, that's the only time it's affordable, but haven't been there in a while. Second on the list is the Cowboy Steak from Rare that I have once a year at my friend Secret Santa extravaganza. They are perfectly lean and buttery. You barely have to chew'em.

5. Steamed Dumplings. We never ate Chinese food growing up. I never had any in college. It wasn't until after college that I tried it and god did I love it. I still have Chang's restaurant from Albany in my phone and will never delete it. My favorite dish to order is steamed pork dumplings. I simply love them.

I used to be such a picky eater, too--I once famously ("famously" in family lore, anyway) refused to eat food with bay leaves because it had "plants" in them. I'm much better now and am willing to try a lot, though I do hate blue cheese (but gorgonzola's okay).
Your mention of David Wright just reminds me of his Rick Moranis "Spaceballs" batting helmet. I can't help but think that some football players would benefit from those things, too.
Yeah, I oncer got instantly ill as a seven yr old when my cousin told me what I had really just ate...it was blue cheese.
THE GAZOO HELMET!!!! He looked silly. And Actually, SuperBowl Champion Aaron Rodgers has been wearing the football version ever since he got this second concussion of the year this season. So GOOD THINKING!.
I'm seriously craving some red meat now. SERIOUSLY.
Oh how I love macaroni and cheese. I was also rather picky as a kid - no burgers, etc. I'm getting better, but still not a huge burger fan. So it goes.
That burger looks amazing. Also, there's a Delmonico in Vegas too, I think. Is it the same? Of course I haven't eaten at it, but I really really want to.
EFF I SOMEHOW FORGOT TO PUT STEAK IN MINE. WHAT. IT IS ONLY THE BEST FOOD EVAR.
Also I made it to 'walk of shame' and then i lol'd. I imagined you doing the charlie brown/george michael sad walk while stuffing your face. Hahahahaha.

I have never had one of those burgers, I will have to look into them.
The best burgers I've had have been in some hole-in-the-wall place in Austin. Can't remember the name. The reason I mention this is because they look EXACTLY like the one in the picture.
Also, I think the fact that steak did not make it into your top 3 means you need to turn in your MAN card. Sorry, but them's the rules.
