Have Fork, Will Travel

I am enjoying the infinite variety of restaurants in New York. But I am learning that my eyes are bigger than my stomach. It is almost as though I haven’t eaten in restaurants before. But even coming from a place where there are wonderful, innovative restaurants, I find myself here in New York still ordering so that I can taste something, instead of something to eat. I consider eating in new places and trying new foods to be a part of the adventure. But how to enjoy the leftovers?
