  1. Has anyone eaten at Bad Burger? I am curious what people have to say. I was interested in it before it opened, but I haven't gone in yet.

  5. I'm assuming Goat Town is trying for their full liquor. They're nice, doing well and obviously not a bar.
    Hope they get it.

  6. I'm in favor of 5 Napkin Burger's existence (I've eaten at the Hell's Kitchen one and it was tasty), but a sidewalk cafe there is madness! It's already so crowded there. Hard to even wait for the light to change without getting knocked over.

  7. I tried Bad Burger for breakfast (omelet, homefries, toast, coffee) and the food was very good. My friend had a burger, which he said was better than most. Staff was nice. My only complaint was it was damn cold in there - maybe they can resolve that problem before winter sets in.

  8. Most of the sidewalk cafes feel like madness to me, so I have to more than agree with the sentiment that sidewalk seating at 3rd ave and 14 th st a particular kind of madness.
