>I can throw a rock in any direction in Manhattan (especially lower and upper manhattan) and find quality restaurants that are priced well below 20 dollars. Why is 20 unreasonable? Costs here are certainly lower than Manhattan so what’s with the upcharging here?

Because the places that have the absolute rock bottom prices for food, fast food, are still charging something close to $10 for a meal. Real restaurants pay considerably more for food and put more effort into it. That's why you only find cheap food at places that can apply economy of scale.

>Why don’t most people at mcwhorters order the pork chops then? Why do they grill whole chickens endlessly all day?

Because that's what they like and what's cheap? Do you know what a chicken shack is? It's not a place that happens to sell a lot of chicken.

>You asked me what I consider to be not overpriced, I’m not moving the goal posts I’m just pointing out the exception here certainly proves the rule.

No, you asked for me places. I provided places. You then bitched about there only being provided four during a workday when you never mentioned a number.

Because less than $20 is not a great price point and you know it.

The vegan friendly place with brunch is a bit of a bridge?

>Most people who go to mcwhorter get the chicken that’s why they cook them en masse on the racks.

Order the pork chops, which so many chicken shacks have. Hint: chicken shacks pretty much only serve chicken.

>Also four restaurants in a giant area full of restaurants is not the ringing endorsement you seem to think it is

Not only are you moving the goalposts, you got a couple of answers for a specific price point during the workday. What do you expect, a memorized list? Get a grip.
