   "It is a trying time for the vendors of Penn Station food, perpetually   
   doomed to disappoint, especially with the building's stately counterpart,   
   Grand Central Terminal -- a home to Michael Jordan's steaks, Shake Shack's   
   burgers and "sustainably sourced" espressos -- just across town. Now some of   
   Penn Station's stalwart tenants may be forced out. Several unpretentious   
   dining establishments, including the downstairs TGI Friday's and many   
   fast-food stops, are expected to be replaced in the coming months, building   
   officials have said."

   I read the article in hard copy.  I thought that the bad food was the least   
   of the problems in the modern Penn Station.  No/ bad AC is a far greater   
   bother.  The waiting room reminds me of the IRT #2, minus the bubble gum on   
   the floor.  The call for the DC trains is like a cattle call with so many   
   people lined up you can't even GET to the waiting areas.
