Local before arrival
With its more than 35 cafes, restaurants and stores, this historic market hall attracts about 6 million visitors every year. The best strategy for visitors is to arrive hungry and eat your way through. Try the Cambodian sandwiches at Num Pang, the moist brownies at the Fat Witch Bakery, and the freshly pressed organic juices at One Lucky Duck. The Manhattan Fruit Exchange has a giant selection of fruits and vegetables, and the Lobster Palace sells fresh fish and seafood, and boasts a sushi and sashimi bar.
