Taking a bite out of the Big Apple

The Big Apple's history and identity is best explored through its food - dishes given a new home by waves of immigrant communities and turned into New York City icons. Nathan's annual hot-dog-eating contest has been running each 4 July ever since, and while Chicago has its 'dragged through the garden' dog, Dallas its corn dog and LA its Pink's chilli dogs, New York's dogs are perhaps the most famous. The New York bagel of choice is smoked salmon and cream cheese: in the 1930s a Kraft marketing campaign successfully promoted the bagel and cream cheese combo, while lox was sold from pushcarts on the Lower East Side by Jewish immigrants back in the early 1900s. Today, The Traditional Sandwich - a bagel filled with Nova Scotia smoked salmon, plain cream cheese, Lucky's beefsteak tomatoes, red onions and capers, served with a pickle and coleslaw - has breathed new life into a New York classic.
