Roti Rolls at Bombay Frankie's

Let me first say that I was BOMBARDED by mags, newsletters and events this afternoon all guiding me towards the free and cheap splendid events taking place throughout the city this summer. Most everything kicks off in June so I'll start actually writing about them next week but my piece of advice is to get done with all that "I've wanted to do this for so long but haven't yet" "stuff" that needs to occur before the craziness of summer sets in and you're busy up to your ears with events!

While you're out and about, however, check out upper west side favorite spot of mine, Bombay Frankie's! Located on Amsterdam at 109th street, this little haven of a street store serves up Roti Rolls, basically a sort of burrito stuffed full with Indian food. Ranging from $2.75 (for spiced potatoes and chick peas) to $6.00 (for the shrimp variety) apiece them mega-sandwiches offer the perfect meal to go as you check out central park on 110th or cruise Columbia's gorgeous campus on 116th. With special deals if you buy two (seven bucks gets you two chicken malai rolls) and mango lassi's in the fridge, there's nothing more likely to get way up on the west side!

Oh yea, and if you're lucky enough to live nearby, they offer free delivery until midnight on orders 12 bucks or over, 212-666-1500.
