For Penn Station Diners, Nowhere to Go but Up - NYTimes.com

It never changes!

"Some travelers entrust their stomachs, anxiously, to the tacos of Pennsylvania Station, where dark hairs and soda stains soil the dining tables above the tracks. Others make it as far as the soft pretzels, sagging meekly behind glass, or the pizza shops whose fumbled marinara sauce has fused semipermanently to the floor.

But for any famished commuter in this long-disparaged hub, the nation’s busiest transit site, the specter of culinary surrender is never far-off.

“This is the armpit of the city,” said Steve Fox, from Manhasset, N.Y., waiting for a train recently at the TGI Friday’s on the Long Island Rail Road level."
