| - It's true, one of the Financial District's not-so-hidden-but-often-overlooked gems (hence, few lineups). This place isn't over-the-top amazing, but it's definitely something different in an area of over-priced food options and often underwhelming food - here, the highlight is definitely the lunch special, as other reviewers have mentioned.
Located in the heart of Commerce Court Food Court (just diagonal from the PATH entrance of Equinox gym), this is a humble food stall that serves mostly breakfast items - cereal (obviously) and steel cut oats with toppings of your choosing. But also, randomly, at lunchtime, they sell Asian-oriented meals that are quite delicious and very satisfying, under $10.
Their most popular lunch item is the cold Buckwheat Soba Noodle Salad, which you can choose to have with either chicken or tofu. Seasoned very well, spicy. sweet. Generous portions of chicken, lots of veggies, and a light sesame dressing that complements the meal so well. For one large bowl of this, I paid around $8.00, and I still had leftovers for dinner.
If you're sick of food court fried chicken or the long lineups at the Fresh salad bar, check this place out. Small lineups, friendly staff, reasonable prices (for the area), and healthy offerings make for a pretty decent breakfast or lunch choice.
