Stand: Given the staggering amount of bars in Gotham, it might seem strange to choose a tiny burger joint as a destination for a sloppy night out. First of all, your insides will thank you for the greasy protein and carbohydrate foundation. Secondly, two words: alcoholic milkshakes. One sip of the Kahlua Vanilla and you may forget who you are for about 3 seconds. There's also a strong selection of regional, Northeastern drafts (think Smuttynose, Dog Fish, and Victory) to be had by the glass or the pitcher, as well as cocktails whose names conjure up nostalgic Americana, including the “Rest Stop” (vodka and blueberry) and the “State Fair” (Calvados and apple puree). It’s meat and booze married in a greasy, Greenwich bliss. |
