• 100 servings of Manhattan clam chowder and one bushel of Blue Point Oysters from the Grand Central Oyster Bar & Restaurant


• 20 pounds of "Super Steak" from Peter Luger Restaurant and six bottles of Peter Luger steak sauce.

If the Patriots lose, Boston mayor Thomas M. Menino will send the following to New York:

• 100 cups of New England Clam Chowder from Legal Sea Foods


• 42 pounds of coffee from Dunkin' Donuts in honor of Super Bowl XLII


• 12 dozen Boston Cream Pies and 12 Dozen Parker House Rolls (in honor of Tom Brady's No. 12) from Boston's Omni Parker House Hotel
