Admit it, girl - sometimes, you get a teensy bit tired of the ubiquitous “mixed greens” for lunch. Don’t you secretly just crave . . . a burger?
Well, when you’re ready to admit it, head down to Paul’s in the East Village for a no-frills, affordable burger with all the traditional trimmings. Paul’s is the kind of place you remember from back home - a bit like a roadside diner, filled with Americana, and serving up burgers, cheesesteak, fries, beer, and milkshakes for a great price (the burgers start at $4.20). Feeling guilty about your diet? You can order a small burger. Out with your guy? There’s a deluxe for him.
And while you’re there, enjoy it. There will always be more salads.
