Haven't been to Virgil's in years, but I think Collins Bar may be able to beat them for best beer selection in the area. Some good American craft beers on tap and a pretty wide selection of international bottled beers. Free popcorn too.

Yakitori Totto should presumably be included, as so many members like it.

Michael Ruhlman writes a glowing review of his recent meal there. "Best Chicken. Ever." Thomas Keller sent him there.

But did he have the chicken balls? They are soooooooo good.

Chickens have balls? You city people with your nutty ideas!

I think I don't got no palette [sic], because I just thought it was a lot of grilled chicken. Perfectly fine, and with some interesting cuts, but just grilled chicken - and a bit repetitive as a dinner.

You guys have been reading too much of Andrea Strong.

True, but a meal of just chicken is kind of dull. It's way more interesting if you have other grilled items (I'm fond of the grilled tofu) and some of the larger plates from the kitchen.

I finally got around to the Kati Roll Company on 46th ('twixt 6 and 7), which I had on my list as a flushboing recommendation for ages.

Go off-peak.

The estimated fifteen minute wait went past twenty minutes, which is a long time to be standing in a crowded fast food joint.

But good food, good value, freshly prepared - hence the wait. The flatbreads are cooked on a flat pan of great diameter, then stuffed with chicken, lamb, vegetables, etc. You can dial up the spicing if you wish. Two rolls will set you back around $7-$9. I ate a pair of shami kebab rolls, which were well-filled and very filling. A little greasy, if I had to complain.

I'm keeping this in mind for the next time I am able to run out and pick up lunch.

Daisy, I couldn't stop drooling when I saw that photo yesterday. I knew the ramps would get your attention. But 11th Ave? Could he be more inaccessible?

He's supposedly opening in Chelsea soon. A block away from my apartment.

You lose Tia Pol but gain ramp sandwiches. Eases the hurt.
