Miss Korea BBQ

CT & I have been back for from our Panama trip for a little while now and already have a bunch of NYC based posts for you. Rather than let them get “stale,” we are gonna have a couple bonus posts at 12:15. Enjoy! The day after Hurricane Irene paid a visit to the tri-state area, most forms of inter-state transportation were still offline. As such, CT was unable to get to her office in Connecticut, so she worked from home. As for me, I braved the empty streets of Manhattan for my usual walk to to work. Since the [...]

Food Gallery 32 Revisited

Back in April, I got a Groupon email advertising a deal for Bian Dang inside Food Gallery 32. The deal was for $5 you get Taiwanese Fried Chicken or Pork with Rice, Sauce, and Dumplings. Considering this would normally cost $11, it was a great deal. You may remember the last time I had Bian Dang I enjoyed it very much. The deal seemed to be too much food for one person, so instead of going during lunch, I waited until CT was around so we could go for dinner. I figured if we get something else from one of [...]

Kimchi Taco Truck

TT says: I’m taking the day off and letting CT take over. Enjoy! Ever since first hearing about the Kimchi Taco Truck on Midtown Lunch, I’ve been wanting to try it. Unfortunately, I don’t work in an area that gets frequented by food trucks. After a failed attempt at the Brewer’s PicNYC, I was excited to discover the truck was parked nearby on my day off. Looking at the menu, I remembered that they were known for their amazing “Kim-cheesesteaks,” however, I just wasn’t quite in a sandwich mood. So I decided to go for the Kimchi Bowl with spicy [...]

Big D’s Grub Truck

This post has been a long time coming, and I don’t know why I’ve put it off for so long.  Whoops!  A while back, I decided to run into the city and try this truck I’ve been seeing all over my friends’ Facebook feeds lately: Big D’s Grub Truck.  It happened to be parked near my friend’s office in midtown, so he joined me for lunch – and even better, this was during the week that they had a promotion for $1 off a taco platter or a sandwich if you said “CBS New York” to them.    Fun.  (Also: [...]

Brewers PicNyc

Last month, Thrillist announced the first food festival of the season on Governors Island would be the Brewers PicNyc over Memorial Day weekend. They also offered a deal for VIP tickets for $55 instead of $85, which included one hour early admission plus all you can eat and drink(beer too). CT and I enjoyed Meatopia and Parked last year(although we ended up in the minority that felt that way), so we were both keen on returning for another festival. Since we are old hands, we know how best to navigate these events. Rule #1 Arrive EARLY! On the way to [...]
