Want super secret hole in the wall street food that's ethnic and famous? Try A and A Doubles bakery for what the local Trinidadian population says is the best place to get a double (which is a fried bread and chick pea street snack) in all of NYC. Careful because you'll walk right past this place without ever knowing how famous and how good it is! We didn't know it was here for years!
