Best spinach roll. Very cheesy too.

From Montreal, food to take back to the US!
Requires shopping the morning of the day before as well as a late night run on Metro, Bixi, Bus. Primarily for Kouign Amann pastry, Schwartz's smoked meat sandwich, St Viateur Bagels, and croissants from almost any place.

Sana Restaurant, basement at 1175A Crescent St, Montreal. Good Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi food. Veg and non-veg.

And cold mashed potatoes spread with fluffy caviar (!).

July 4th Macy's Fireworks viewed from Brooklyn Kent Ave and 12th and 13th Streets.

Nice day at Coney Island. Nathan's hotdog (with sauteed onions & mustard). Fries shown are chili cheese (but regular fries much better!). And Coney Island beach looks great on a hot day. Also nice to have many restrooms in area (unlike other parts of NYC!).

Banana pudding from Magnolia Bakery. NYC Amtrak Penn Station. Take one when visiting someone or going home! Yummy!
