Financial District Lunch: Tabasco Chicken Over Rice at Water Street Gourmet
September 3, 2008
- What: Tabasco Chicken (heavy cream and chipotle sauce, no actual tobasco, mixed with tender chunks of mainly white meat chicken) over your choice of yellow or white rice. It’s a quick, spicy, filling and affordable lunch in the Financial District.
- Cost: $10 with a drink
- Inside Info: Since there’s not actually any Tabasco in it, the spice level is mild with a tiny kick. The deliciousness of this dish won’t floor you but it will keep your wallet full and your stomach happy.
Where: 12 Water St between Whitehall Street & Broad Street, NY, NY 10004 212-785-5200

that looks like someone puked in a tin dude
rice looks decent though…
not sure how 10 bucks is a good deal for that….i’d rather get 10 hot dogs off a street vender and swallow them whole..
LONG LIVE JOEY CHESTNUT!!!

Puke,
You may be right but its still damn tasty. $10 for a filling meal is a deal in this city, have you tried to buy lunch in any of the business-centric hoods in Manhattan?

im down for just about any lunch that includes a dollop of heavy cream

Hold on a minute…Puke may be right. How much is a Papaya King dog? I confess, Doc Dyspepsia is an old mofo, who last time he ate one, a Papaya Dog was edible, and cost 99 cents. 10 bucks for a pukey Thai meal, or all the Papaya King dogs you can eat, and live? Hard one….

Oh my. I said “hard” on this web site. What a boner!
But what about “puke”, who swallows them whole?

Doc,
Easy there man. You’re walking a thin line amidst my sometimes raunchy readers. Just know you walk that line alone.
When are we doing Ben’s Best? Two weekends from now? Or should we just do a BK diner burger asap?

Yes, Guy, I went overboard, and gave in to an easy setup. Thanks for reining me in.
As for an excursion, let’s talk off-line, both look mighty good.
