Surely the body cannot work without food, therefore food will be needed without a doubt, it is a preparation for the fun things that will be taking place at Time Square. Ready? A good restaurant I recommend is Dallas BBQ. It is rated with four stars for customer satisfaction. Also, the menus are very affordable and delicious. Their top main starters are ribs, chicken and steaks. Dallas BBQ has some great wings. They are so tasty, you will be left sucking your 10 fingers. Dallas BBQ also, has a variety of wings from which you have the option to choose. My favorite wings are hot wings (medium spicy) with a side of french fries and a pina colada as a drink. After a delicious meal. Next is Times Square; to save some long walks, Times Square is seven minutes away walking from Dallas BBQ.
