Bronx Bites: A Four-Stop Food Route

Follow Ms Caridad, Jerry's Pizzeria, Tarte Bakes and Xochimilco in that order for Dominican plates, pizza, a coffee break and Mexican cooking. Bring friends, pace the orders and plan travel between stops rather than treating this as a short walk.

Bring friends. Come hungry.
