Why not try Nanoosh?

Nanoosh, a restaurant best categorized by its organic take on traditional Mediterranean fare,  has offered King's students a 10% discount with ID after 3pm!  They are located at Madison Avenue between 33rd and 34th (just a block from the Empire State Building). The restaurant offers customers the option of seated dining, take out, or delivery (including online ordering)! Check out their website!


UPDATE: Jennifer Tharp and I visited Nanoosh and ended up eating there for lunch a few days in a row! The restaurant is bright, clean, and close-by, and the service was incredibly quick- I'm talking waiting in line, ordering, and taking my food to-go, all in under 5 minutes and during lunchtime, too.  Jennifer loved the Quinoa Salad ($7.95) made with red peppers, red onions, organic walnuts, dried cranberries, rasins and, of course, quinoa. I loved their Tomato Soup (organic tomato, celery, cucumber, onions, and basil pesto with a whole wheat pita on the side) and their Lentil Soup (organic lentils, carrots, and onions and a pita). Both soups run $2.95 for a small and $4.95 for a large. Equally delicious was the Hummus Chicken Wrap ($8.25)  consisting of a whole wheat tortilla, chicken breast, hummus, tahini, and organic onions and  greens. It was large enough for me to make two meals out of, and just as good the second day as it was the first! Finally, their beverage selection was reasonably priced and ranged from fruit juices ($3.50) to cans of Coke ($1.50) to bottles of Virgil's Root Beer ($3.50) and wine and beer ($4.95- 5.95). Jennifer highly recomends the lightly sweetened Organic Iced Mint Tea  and I'm addicted to their Organic Mint Lemonade ($2.50 for either), garnished with fresh mint leaves.  If you visit Nanoosh and have a favourite dish, tell us about it in the comments section!
