That's wonderful news!
New York food is not at all what people think of as American food. Lots of wonderful options. The biggest problem isn't the calories but the expense.
Well maybe the bagels will be a problem, as they are so delicious in the city, like none anywhere else. The really good NY pizza seems to have been gentrified into extinction. I grew up on the Upper West Side and the fifteen cent pizza slices, cut out of huge pies whose crusts were spun theatrically in the windows of the tiny takeout shops by handsome men who could only have been named Tony, remain among my happiest food memories. If there are still real Jewish delis, they too are a treat. But you are far away from the suburban strip mall food deserts in NYC.
