Summer afternoons are perfect for sitting in the park with snacks, a few cold drinks, and a blanket spread across the grass. But if you're like us, you're the kind of New Yorker who can't be bothered to pack a basket and would rather grab one to go. We've made your picnic planning a little easier by rounding up a list of our favorite eateries that will help you put together a premade picnic basket. Check out the top gourmet joints that will give you an afternoon off, and offer a lot of food options to make your picnic a success.
