The Underground Gourmet by Milton Glaser and Jerome Snyder

Paperback (1967)

This classic illustrated guide to New York City dining on the cheap (in 1960s prices) covers “101 restaurants, from the exotic to the mundane,” including (per the back cover) “the information needed to cope with three hitherto mysterious New York specialties: Puerto Rican chuchifritos, Jewish knishes and Chinese Dim-Sum (dumplings).” A delightful snapshot of a bygone—but still recognizable—New York.
