What’s your guilty pleasure from them?

M_Six · 02-04-2023, 12:27 PM

Yikes, $90 for ramen for two? That there is some pricey food.

Oldgixxer · 02-04-2023, 12:43 PM

Bagels from NYC&occasionally Nathans. Can't find a decent bagel down South at all. Weather is great,but the bagels,deli&pizza just ain't the same as back home

Wifey just ordered some bagels and bialys from a place called "Just Bagels." They were typical of the bagels you find here in central IL. Mostly just bread in a roll. Not at all like real NYC bagels. So hard to get decent bagels here.

I feel your pain. Due to work,the Mrs usually travels to NJ/NY every 2mos and she always brings back a dozen or so and I'm like a dog salivating for his food bowl when I pick her up at the airport waiting for my everything-bagel

We like jalapeño cheddar bagels from our local bakery. Delicious.

Tommy-G · 02-04-2023, 01:38 PM

It’s weird, seems like almost everything is $100
I’m looking for really good peppered bacon if anyone has a reco. Doesn’t have to be from Goldbelly.

Italian hot dogs from my home area in NJ are my vice

I love hot dogs, Tommy. The Italian hot dogs sound great. I want some.

Same out here in Arizona - impossible to find good bagels.

I ordered a dozen everythings (ET's) from Russ & Daughters via Goldbelly. I also ordered a quarter pound of Nova (lox) and a half pound of cream cheese.

I think the total was like $125.

Bagels were pre packaged and came Lenders style. I wasn't expecting that. I've never been to the physical location in NYC so maybe that's how they they do it?

The nova was good quality.

Overall, it was a pretty mediocre experience.

I've heard good things about Essa Bagels so I may try them next...

RickFLM4 · 02-04-2023, 05:47 PM

I’ve looked at ordering some pizzas but find the pricing beyond absurd, so I haven’t tried anything.

My favorite place retired during COVID but this spot was way more main stream in a bigger town.

Tommy where in NJ were you from? I was a 25yr member of Plumbers Local 14 in Lodi (now Local 24 Newark) and all my work was in NNJ

I know the area well

We've had crabcakes through Goldbelly, can't remember which place. My son and his wife get NY style pizza and proper pastrami sent to TX from various places on a regular basis.

I was pleasantly surprised by the thick-cut peppered bacon from Schwann's. Don't know if they have a presence out your way or not.

OkieSnuffBox · 02-07-2023, 09:16 AM

Blackout cookies or Blackout brownies from Brooklyn Bakery.

You guys have to take into account all the orders include the overnight shipping fee which is a huge chunk of the overall cost. Plus Goldbelly taking their cut, just like if you order local using Postmates or Doordash.

I get it...there are some things I have no threshold for price and there are others that I just cant mentally spend the money on

Ginos East Pizzas

I like browsing through Goldbelly on occasion just to see what's on there, but the pricing is insane so I usually don't get anything.

I did once order this rain drop cake just to try it out. Was really weird and a bit underwhelming.
