Lurker

You were awesome on 710 and you will will be amazing on Fox. Programming the Tivo right now...

Lurker & his friends DID come from Daisy May's and will "preview" the ribs, cornbread, okra, and beer at Blue Smoke, too. We're also planning a January road trip to Montreal b/c we've heard that 4 star beef is stacking up at the border. My feelings toward this burger (priced at $8): It's like vanilla pudding - I wouldn't ever seek it out, but I also wouldn't refuse it if it were served. If the burger was $8 and a friend said "my B-Day party is a Landmark", I would go. Now that I know that was a $13 burger, however, I feel a lot different. This is vanilla pudding priced like a truffle. At the $13 price point, if a friend said "my B-Day party is a Landmark", I would either skip or eat beforehand. BTW, a HUGE shoutout to whoever recommended the JUdson Grill burger. I took my client there yesterday and got a big thumbs up. It's expensive at $15.50, but worth it, especially when the fries are good and the onion rings are some of the best in the city.

I'm so in on this. Haven't been to Savoy in over a year. Allow me to express my agricultural ignorance, though - what do cows normally eat? Hay? Every time I've driven by cows, they seem to be eating grass.

OK, I’ve been called out, so I’ll climb down off my bar stool and say hello. Reading the board is fun; actually attending “Burger Club” is funner. Everyone was amazingly friendly and receptive to new people. In spite of my score being the third lowest given (how did that happen?), I very much enjoyed the cheeseburger. Just like all NYC restaurants, it was cooked one-degree more than I had asked (I requested medium rare, I got medium). Somehow, it was the overall taste that really made this one good – one component didn’t jump out like some places (ie Peter Luger is all about the meat, Deb’s is about the fixings, Brooklyn Diner is about the juice, etc). This place is simply a well-matched meat, cheese, & bun combination Put it down as an amazing find for that neighborhood. PS elyse: count me in for a couple of pecan pies and an order of pao de queijo.
