WEDNESDAY
Join taxi drivers for your first proper serving of veggies for the week at Punjabi Grocery and Deli (114 E 1st St between First Ave and Ave A, 212-533-9048) for a fat samosa topped with curried lentils and cooling cucumbers ($2.25). Tip: Load up on the free pickled condiments.
Tired of slumming it? Come to classy underground cocktail den Blue Owl (196 Second Ave between 12th and 13th Sts, 212-505-2583) for complimentary vodka concoctions from 5pm to 6pm on Wednesdays.*
It’s definitely not Di Fara’s, but we can’t complain about the cut-rate prices and cheesy slices at 24-hour takeout spot 99¢ Fresh Pizza (569 Ninth Ave at 41st St, 212-268-1461). If you’re still hungry, just add more of those red-pepper flakes.
* Just because the booze is free, doesn’t mean you shouldn’t tip.

Or we can share... just because they want us to order 2 salads, 2 appetizers, 2 entrees, doesn't mean we can't order one of what we want and share. Just because the booze is free doesn't mean you shouldn't drink.
what about all the money you spend taking the subway to all of these places??
