Petey thanks so much for welcoming us with open arms.

Homemade food prepared by the hands of comforting people who love to cook always tastes the best! I adore Mama Jo 🤗

[@HereBeBarr]

Me too!!

[@marveen6372]

It’s healthier

[@intru4020]

@@marveen6372 Just because it's home-made does not mean its healthy. For example; seed oils, sugars, chemical flavors, preservatives, and food colorings can all be found in home-cooked foods, including these street meals.

[@DonnellOkafor-pd7yn]

It's because it's cheap.

[@tishw4576]

I live in Cyprus and Mama Jo is serving legit food. Good for her.

[@CallmeMrKelly]

Love Jon’s reaction to good food. Takes bite, chews twice, closes eyes and lifts chin with the most contented look. Best compliment someone can give. Kudos!

[@chrisjrb7686]

“But you can survive doing what you like” 😨 omg this woman just made my eyes tear up that was one of the most amazing quotes I have ever heard 😮🥹 bless her ❤️ amazing job catching that on video Jon wow 😮👏🏼

[@HereBeBarr]

Mama Jo is just full of inspiration.

[@chrisjrb7686]

Absolutely! 🙌🏼

My most favourite Videos of Here be Barr is where affordable food is featured..I will never say word "Cheap" because Food is never Cheap it's a blessings to living beings no matter what living form you are 🙏🏻🌎🌍🌏🙏🏻

​@HereBeBarr food in Dearborn is great I used to like NY Italian foods but don't like Manhattan or Queens

[@TimothyZakaria]

​@@HereBeBarrCanadian maple foods are my favorite today but I know you are from South America. Crazy where people come from cause they don't lose their taste buds.

[@wallyg77]

I would buy from momma Jo's just because of her positivity!

[@HereBeBarr]

Amén

[@suefitz2498]

Gotta love Mama Jo’s, she’s a star and total legend as you said❤. Petey’s cart is great as well. I love all the cheap breakfast options in NYC. You always put it together so well ❤

[@mattrice5998]

I'm so glad to see Momma Joe's is still there! I saw a food doc on her many years ago and she seemed like the sweetest kindest soul. One day I would love to visit her cart myself. Great video, thank you guys!

[@blpalv15]

Mama Jo is correct. If you do what you love, you will be a success. Jerry Seinfeld said the same thing. If you go into something for the money, you will fail.

[@TheBingBuzz]

Love all the amazing stories from these small businesses!

[@travelandeats8518]

Connecticut here. Did my first bacon egg and cheese Harlem 125 and Lexington lil bodega on the right hand side. Video up!!!

I love how it turned out ,shout out to you Petey ❤

Very nice selection of places to eat for breakfast! Thanks for sharing

[@mala3167]

Going back in August! Excited to try these places out 😊

[@roscoemuttley]

Good one. Petey's Cadillac coffee is called "office mocha" in Seattle.

I have been in NYC two times and when I watch these videos, I want to come back again :D

[@slumcore3921]

Great video Jon! Always enjoy seeing some of the more obscure spots. Showing off the man, the myth, the legend himself 🎉 So glad Petey's getting the recognition he deserves, super sweet guy who's gonna tell you exactly what he's thinkin. 💛🖤💛🖤

[@AdamW77]

This is very useful to watch. I like the idea of staying not far away from one of these places and not having to go too far for breakfast before exploring.

[@s.macintosh-jc9rf]

Hi Jon, Thanks for the wonderful video of cheap eats in NYC! I’ve got to visit NYC just for the food. Welcome to Ben on your channel. Have a great weekend and thank you for your constant entertainment! Best Wishes, Peter

[@HereBeBarr]

Thanks! 😃

[@dianascarletthenry]

Exactly what I need!!! Powerful on a budget food. This goes direct to my fave tips.

Glad it was helpful!

PTOO PTOO to Mama Jo!! LOVE HER ENERGY!

Hope too see you in New York❤

[@ximenadelrio]

Thank you for this !!!!!

[@MeowjinBoo]

omg i visited that greek cafe in astoria in 2022, i'm greek myself and that cafe was so good. the owner was a fellow photographer, super nice guy and he was a victim of rent hike and couldnt afford to keep it open anymore. his bougatsa was the best i had outside of greece.

[@itsjohndell]

I'm long gone from NYC but this video made me homesick (briefly). So happy to see Mama Jo again, when I was ever on the UWS Grays was always a must have. And instead of standing behind some dipshit ordering a thousand things in their coffee a coffee regular is the essence of New York. Cheers from the left coast1

[@maryannreese6264]

Keep coming more videos enjoy all them 👍🏻👋🏻

[@elisazouza]

Sometimes the cheapest ones are the best ones ❤

Awesome, affordable eats in New York ! Great to eat there on a budget.

Ninos breakfast on 44 and 7 is also great too! Reliable and great food.

So fun watching and stepping back into that rainy morning, the food was great but also incredibly affordable! Thanks for having me!

Thanks for joining Ben!!

Dang. Been decades since I went home for a slice. Thank you for showing me the REAL places to go eat!

NYC eats is the best content for food by far !!!! Great job guys 👏 👍 keep up the great work

[@xtremeentertainmenttv9664]

Way better than anything LA has

[@AntonWongVideo]

I was wondering when you were going to do the Gray's Papaya breakfast items after the last video you visited them! Also, all these choices seem like the most NYC breakfast places and people you could find! Love it!

[@HereBeBarr]

Thanks Anton!

[@GingeRenee]

I spent a month in the Bronx and the thing I miss the most about nyc is the food. So much good food. I just wanted to eat all day long when there. It was truly the best food I have ever had. Pizza to die for and so much yummy restaurants. I had a burger the size of a dinner plate. It was delicious and so filling.

[@mk13902]

I’ll be taking my first trip to New York in July and I learn about 10 more places I want to eat at every time I watch Jon’s channel. This city has a vibrant food culture that I can’t wait to try.

Good stuff friends!

[@billwilliams4569]

Dang! I wished you had posted this video a week and a half ago. I stayed in New York last weekend, and my hotel was just 3 blocks further down Park Avenue. I know I passed Petey's at least half a dozen times. I'll have to check it out when I return in June.

I will definitely have to visit these places the next time I make it to NYC! Although I found a great breakfast place near where I stayed in Hell's Kitchen last time, but it's a sit down and not under $5.

[@minutereviewshow]

Love Bing Buzz dude's jacket. The food is almost as good.

im from greece myself and you often see greek food which isnt close to the real thing but she makes it AUTHENTIC

Thank you Jon, I am going to New York for the first time with my 12 year old in April. I am 30 and it's just me and him. I am extremely nervous but your videos have really helped me a lot and I feel a bit more confident now, thank you

[@HereBeBarr]

You can do it!

[@kevinnorris6558]

If it helps, there is certainly crime here but it's not nearly as bad as the news will make it out to be. Definitely have some cash on hand as many smaller shops in NYC are cash only and try Adels while you're here.

[@jakeleeding5170]

Thank you for the advice!@@kevinnorris6558

[@CuriousEarthMan]

On the map, Gray's Papaya is on Amsterdam and 72nd. Not Broadway, but a short block from Broadway, because they cross there. I heard the Papaya King relocated on the east side a block or two or so from where they were for years. I ate there in the 70s lol

You can eat delicious grub on the cheap in NYC at most no-name local delis and street carts.

[@rogergeyer9851]

When traveling in the northeast (big cities) on business in the 80's, I quickly realized you could easily get a satisfying diner breakfast for like two bucks. Having a similar amount of food for dinner at a typical restaurant for dinner would cost 5 to 10 times as much. Much more at a fancy place. Being a frugal person, I wondered how restaurants didn't just PRINT money at dinner.
