It's marked up because the store is viral. In other words, he charges that much because he can. If the Ock (who has 2 bodegas to run) charged regular priced, he'd be spending all day making those sandwiches.

As a New Yorker, bodegas are not just a staple in NYC, but the metro area as well. I lived in Jersey City for a few years before moving back to NY, and there are plenty of bodegas there as well in The Heights. What makes bodegas special are the charm and the affordability (typically) for the average person living in some of the most expensive areas anywhere. And it's a true bodega if there's a cat around.

Like he says- the bacon egg and cheese, on a frosted honey bun IS enough for 4 people - and probably could induce a heart attack in all 4 of them. If you come to NY try a baconeggandcheese on a freshly baked NY REAL bagel- or a lighter opt: the kaiser roll....that's real NY. It isn't health food, but it's not poisonous either.

I tried the BE&C this exact same way the ocky way and guys, it's worth the money. Even when cut in half these things are HUGE! I'm a big guy with a big appetite and I was full when I was done with my half. So say my half was $9, typical bacon egg and cheese is anywhere from 3 to 5 bucks depending where you go, if you get a side of mozzarella sticks that costs another 4-5 bucks, and this guy puts enough bacon for 3 or 4 sandwiches you get anywhere else. If you go there go there with a friend and split it, totally worth it. Ocky is magic!

NYC definitely isn't a perfect city (their subway has seen better days, while ours has chandeliers), but I'll give it to them that their bodegas are culturally significant. NYC isn't NYC without its bodegas. And we thank NYC to continuing to provide the Internet with its weirdness. Hoping to one day make it over there to do a UN speech. I just hope what happened to Admiral General Aladeen doesn't happen to me.

I love how eclectic NYC is and how the people seem to embrace diversity. I love that they have so many "mom n pap" food spots with original flavors and secret recipes. I'm not knocking all the big franchise chain food spots but these little ones tend to have some of the best tasting most creative menu. Years ago I went restaurant hopping with some relatives and literally visited 4 different spots on the same street and enjoyed a taste off each menu, we don't have that luxury in my city for a variety of reasons.
