Cuisine of New York City

The cuisine of New York City comprises many cuisines belonging to various ethnic groups that have entered the United States through the city. Almost all ethnic cuisines are well represented in New York, both within and outside the various ethnic neighborhoods.[1]

The city's New York Restaurant Week started in 1992 and has spread around the world due to the discounted prices that such a deal offers.[2] In New York there are over 12,000 bodegas, delis, and groceries, and many among them are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
