Nifty whiteboard demo.
I’ve eaten at BLT Burger twice in the week or so that it’s been officially open.
It’s a pretty good burger. Not as good as the Shake Shack, but it’s got a nice crust—something that not a lot of burgers in New York have. Also, the fries they server are fantastic—they’re double-fried and delicious.
I’m not sure that I’ll make it a regular stop, though, as It’s a bit on the expensive side (particularly if you order the $62 Kobe burger).
I’d like to apologize for the lack of pictures; I’m not so good at taking pictures of food I’m supposed to eat, insomuch as I tend to be, at the critical moment, more concerned with consumption than preservation…
Oh yeah, and don’t forget to vote tomorrow, even if none of the races you can vote for are essentially uncontested (e.g. New York City).
