Want something to do next Tuesday? Preferably something that’s free? Well, The Skint tipped us off to the VIP Grand Opening of 1834 Bar & Burger down in the Financial District. From 6-8 pm they’ll be serving complimentary cocktails and hors d’oeuvres, giving you plenty of time to get home in time for LOST (for [...]

Earlier this week, Laura (thoughts in italics) and I were lucky enough to visit West 3rd Common (full disclosure: we were invited to dine there. We are ethical bloggers!). West 3rd Common is owned by the same person who runs Common Ground, which our guest writer, Jenni, reviewed last week, and it just opened this [...]

If you’ve been reading our blog, you know how much we enjoy Blockheads, whether it is for dinner or brunch. The delivery lunch specials at Blockheads are also great, because they come with a soda and chips and salsa, all for $8.95 (before tax and tip).  Blockheads is offering 25% off first time online orders, between [...]

A few weeks ago Laura and I were invited to the opening of the new Johnny Rockets up on 62nd and 1st. Always excited for an event, we attended with her roommate in toe, but we weren’t sure what to expect. Don’t get me wrong, I like Johnny Rockets, but when I’m on the boardwalk [...]

We received word that 8coupons.com is teaming up with Pop Burger to offer a deal for us carnivores – two Pop Burgers for a mere 88 cents! You can try these sliders at the 58th Street location on Tuesday, Dec. 8th from 2 – 6:30 pm, and the 8th of every month from there on [...]

I’ve been working in the Financial District for three weeks now to know a deal downtown can be hard to come by.  Tonight though, that all changes.
Thanks to Eater, we’ve discovered that Zaitzeff, a burger joint, will begin offering a Thursday Happy Hour special, starting tonight.  For $9, you’ll get a bottle of beer, and [...]

I don’t know what it is about White Castle, but many of the guys I’m friends with have these legendary stories about their quests for some sliders.  Take my roommate’s brother Joe, for instance (note: he’s the guy with the saxophone).  His freshman year of college, he traveled from Fredonia, NY to Cleveland - a [...]

In my life, three burger places have been built up to bucket list status. The first, Dotty Dumpling’s Dowry in Madison, WI, lived up to expectations. It was my go-to burger through four years of college, because, let’s be honest, Midwesterners know their grilled meats. The second, In-N-Out Burger [...]

New York Magazine’s Grub Street compiled 82 of New York’s best burgers…I’m getting hungry just reading the descriptions and looking at the photos. Any thoughts on your favorite spots?
This week Time Out New York published its annual Cheap Eats issue - it’s a great guide for thrifty eaters, and they even break it down by [...]

A few weeks ago, a couple of co-workers and I went searching for a falafel cart that was spotted earlier in the week down on Park Ave South and the lower 20s.   Unfortunately, the cart had moved, and with our stomachs growling, the New York Burger Co. sign caught our eye.  While my hunger [...]
