PYT bringing its offbeat burger creations to the Bowery



The coming soon sign appeared last week at 334 Bowery for PYT, the first NYC outpost of the Philadelphia burger place known for some pretty wacky creations.

A rep for Gia Trattoria confirmed to us that the Italian restaurant has closed. While PYT will open in the weeks ahead, the adjacent space will continue to be home to the now larger SRO pizza speakeasy.

As for PYT, well they peddle speciality stunt burgers with deep-fried "Philly Cheese Steak" Hot Pockets for buns … or Chicken Bacon Eggo Sliders… the Cocoa Krispies Chicken Burger … hey, it's your colon. Check out their menu here.



Perhaps PYT will stem the tide of restaurants here, with Forcella, Espoleta and Gia Trattoria coming and going fairly quickly since last November.

    I'm so excited we have another restaurant that peddles ... food ... for those with the palette of a drunken 8 year old.

    That's an insult to drunken 8 year olds everywhere; they have much more discerning palates!

    Yes, that's why people move to NYC, to eat Hot Pockets. Get a life.

    Ugh — sorry Pinhead. That's a typo. I meant cologne.

    Do the fried Pixie Sticks come with dipping sauce?
