Address-> The best I can get the the net is, In Citylink, Next to HMV.

As the name of the restuarant explains itself, the concept of the restuarant is based on new york itself. Statue of liberty in the middle of the resturant, subway look-alike dining tables, new york city backdrop.
I find the food quite cheap relatively speaking in terms of restaurants, of course you shouldn't compare food court prices here right?
Since it was a relatively new resturant, only open a few weeks ago, the patrons were amazing, coming in herds and all. I had to wait like 30-40mins in the quene? But the service by the manager was great, cheerful and smiling, he invited us in to sit down on the sofas near the entrance as we waited for our seats. There's this menu just outside the restaurant, and the giant yankee burger just caught my eye and I knew what to ordered. Well, here comes the chain of food.. P.S: Please pardon me, I forgot all about the names, so the nearest thing I can remember is that all the dishes here have a "Gotta try It!" stamp beside their names in the menu.

1. Salad

I'm not really a salad guy. You know, meat meat meat and more meat, no veges please whatsoever. But the vegetables (whatever you call them) is just nice with the dressing, bread crumbs and roasted chicken meat. However, it's not a very good opener, as the dressing doesn't start your appetite going. But, rather good for a diet meal I guess? Diet and nice food = perfect combination.

2. Buffalo wings with cheese sauce
I was expecting chicken wings fried and dipped in red hot spicy sauce before they came, much alike the ones in Surfer's place in Funan centre. But it just came differently, you know, sauce separated from the wings, and the sauce was creamy white. A note though, please consume it while it's hot, cause it doesn't taste nice when it's cold wings with cold white cheese sauce. Well, yet another new type of fried chicken wings I've tried. Another note, they should marinate or put in some taste in the wing itself, cause it's kind of tasteless without the sauce.

3. Pepperoni Pizza
Juicy, cheesy and filled with loads of ingredients in every slice of that personal size pizza. Good old original cooking way from Italy. But I still think that the bread part of the pizza is way too hardy.

4. Pork Ribs
Fatty, juicy and totally sinful. They must have gotten these ribs from the fattest pig they can find. The ribs were so full of fats that the meat was so succulent from the oil. Well, it's something sinful that you want to try once in a while. A note: Fats bring out the taste of the meat. No fats = no succulent meat. Same concept goes for sirlon steaks.

5. Giant Yankee Burger
The main hero, the main dish, the main killer for the day and possibly the only name of the dish that I can remember or rather can't forget. The description gave in the menu gave something like this: The burger is gigantic~! Enough for four persons to eat! We dare you to eat it alone! And here's my description. The beef patty itself is almost a thumb finger nail thick and each of the sesame buns were just as thick too. The plate filled up more than half the space of the table. Apart from the size, the beef patty was alright only, because I think they cooked it for too long, such that the beef became rather dry, and you do know how dangerous dry food can do to the throat right? Especially BIG and dry food. So please, do not try this dish unless u're gastronomically prepared. Cause the people I went with were not. LOL.
Oh man, just talking about the last dish gave me the creeps. One thing to take note about the waitresses and waiters there, maybe they are just new, because for somethings they just didn't take initiative to do, like giving us the cheese, chilli flakes and tabasco sauce for our pizza, small plates for us since we obviously are going to share the dishes we ordered and warn us that the burger is REALLY REALLY BIG! Maybe a life-sized photo of the burger would do real good.

Overall speaking, the ambience was kind of good, manager was smiling and welcoming, concept is nice, sofa cosy and food cheap and up to standard. They even offer the customers cotton candy after our meals, pretty neat ah?
