I think some people overestimate the impact of trivial things like skin color; most people here in NYC don't care who makes the pizza as long as the place is clean, the pizza is good and the prices are reasonable. Make good food on a consistent basis and the repeat customers will follow.

    $100 is too much for that greasy pizza. Go to a real restaurant that serves Oxtail chili, shrimp Alfredo, or whatever dish you're craving

    On your past videos you mentioned cheap eats. Please ban the words cheap eats on your video. Reason I say that because if your video gets popular tons of people will be going there and the owner constantly raises their prices. Used to be cheap but now it is market prices. So you and UA-cam creators killed the affordable foods. So please call it affordable eats not cheap eats anymore. Nothing is freaking cheap at all
