Ruth Reichl’s Ultimate New York City Snack Crawl - New York - The Infatuation

"I grew up on 10th Street. There was a Grey's Papaya on the corner of Eighth and Sixth. For years, whenever I came home from college, the first thing I would do is go and get a Grey's Papaya hot dog. To me, it is really the taste of home. Now I live on the Upper West Side and I'm very lucky: there's one on the corner of 72nd and Amsterdam. I like mine with just the onion sauce and mustard on it. And I actually do drink that papaya drink, which I know is all chemicals. But I think if you're a New Yorker, you love that taste. I'll sometimes just walk over to the Hudson and walk up, eating my hot dogs and drinking my ridiculous papaya drink. I really do love that place." - brennan carley
