Welcome to the Lunch Quadrant, where we offer you four lunch options (two standing, two sitting) by a given subway stop. After going to Park Avenue South last week we're heading further downtown on the Lex this time around to Canal Street. Though we're leaning more on the Broadway and Canal side of the station for these options, with Chinatown just around the corner there is a whole lot of good eats in the area. Don't be shy about adding your favorites into the comments!
If you've got any spots you want us to highlight by that stop, or a station you want Quadrent-ed, shoot us a tip at [email protected].
