Wilfrid Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 "An argument to bring back liverwurst, the least popular sandwich option in New York." Inadvertently funny? "In my quest to buy a liverwurst sandwich, something like the ones I ate as a kid, I tried five delis in the West Village, and none seemed to have it..." Seemed to? Robert, try your local supermarket. Believe me, it will seem to have it. It will also have bread and a raw onion if you insist. I will post instructions on assembling the sandwich later.

Orik Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 What's amazing about him is the deli case is staring him right in the face saying Boar's Head and he still doesn't realize these are all the same meats in the various delis including what must be the world's least flavorful liverwurst. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sneakeater Posted April 10 Author Share Posted April 10 When somebody refers to secondi on an Italian menu as "pasta-free options", you kind of have to wonder whether they have the slightest idea how Italian food works. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

backyardchef Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 "From the restauranteur that put Hamptons dining on the map comes the Northfork Bistro-- showcasing the menu items that defined barbecue and tavern dining for generations of NYC diners. This inventive "shack" features the chef's iconic re-imagining of a hamburger by placing it on a bun.... as well as their unique salt and pepper brisket with smoke...."
