Feast your eyes on a dubious addition to the city’s culinary landscape — the Frito Lay pie at the recently opened Fat Annie’s Truck Stop, a.k.a. F.A.T.S. We recommend pairing it with a bucket of Rolling Rock nips. Sure, the airy room full of Americana (Pillsbury Doughboy figurines, old iceboxes, vintage Texaco pumps) reeks of a tourist trap, but a look at the menu reveals more than a few items that appeal to our masticatory masochism: Chicken fried steak! Fried cheese curds! Tater tots topped with bacon, cheese, pickled jalapeños, scallions, and ranch dressing! We predict a Federline sighting in about … three … two … one 

Fat Annie’s Truck Stop, 121 W. 33rd St., nr. Sixth Ave.; 212-695-1122.
