People often ask "What's so special about Ray's Candy Store?" I say "Go there and you'll know." Take a trip back in time to this old school East Village hang serving up the city's best fries, shakes, frozen yogurt and other delights at Reagan-era prices. Ray is an absolute saint. He's been working the night shift at this 24-hour-a-day haunt that bears his name since before most of us were born. Whether he's making you the biggest heap of golden fries you've ever seen or telling a story about the 'hood back in the day, you'll never leave Ray's unsatisfied. Go. Now.
