'Best Nachos in NYC' Put to the Test

I finally had a chance to taste for myself what the Daily News recently named the Best Nachos in New York City - the Nachos Con Carne at 5 Burro Cafe on Austin St. My verdict: Good, but sorry, while I'd love to agree that we have the best nachos in the city, I really couldn't based on my "taste test" this weekend.

As the Daily News recommended, I tried the Nachos Con Carne with the skirt steak (shown above). Everything on the plate was great—except for the steak. I found the pieces overly fatty unfortunately. And they tasted ok. Nothing very memorable. Like I said, however, the rest of the food on the plate, from the peppers to the nachos themselves and the guacamole, was all really good. Next time I'll try the ground beef version which is supposed to be a little spicy.

New York Spider-Man fans cherish his city roots

Unlike most of the Marvel heroes who operate in New York, Spidey was born and raised in Forest Hills, and his adventures often kept him in the city. "He has the perspective of someone from the city but also that fresh look of a tourist where he appreciates the city," Hermus said.
