Super Bowl Parties for NYC Foodies
As you very well know, the Super Bowl is less than a week away, and since the New York Giants are involved, there's even more interest than usual this year in the city. If you don't want to pack in to a crowded and expensive sports bar and would rather throw a party of your own, you'll need some serious snacks and beverages. Hit the supermarket and cook up the classic Super Bowl dishes, or call up one of the following places, put in your order, and let someone else do the work for you.

super-sized heroes.
