LATE-NIGHT FRIES AT LUCKY'S FAMOUS BURGERS

Before doing so, however, a handful of said city dwellers get a craving for fries, which they fulfill at Lucky's.
Where to Find: There are three locations in New York City, but this particular scene was shot at the Lucky's Famous Burgers on West 23rd street.
