First, I smacked him real hard, right across the forehead. So he looks over at me, winks, and he ladles again!! I had enough. I got up, ran behind him, and pulled his chair out from under him. He'll think twice before using that sauce again! I was eating at Peter Luger’s once and the guy at the table across from us started to ladle some of that red sauce onto his plate.

I don't know, I'm not a huge fan, though the BF will reverently refer to "the greatest steak Yvo ever made" as having been a porterhouse marinated in luger sauce (in my defense, we were about to embark on a camping trip, and we bought 2 porterhouses, threw them in the cooler in ziplocs with luger sauce... and then cooked them over hickory wood on an open flame. I really dont think it was the luger sauce that made it awesome, but he can think what he wants :D lol zach what about your site instills violence like so in people? shall I not say luger’s is meh? *raises an eyebrow

Nate's comment *was* hyperbole. You may understand the definition but clearly don't 'get' it in action. If I say that a person who does something idiotic "should be shot," am I advocating gun violence? No. Midtown and other parts of the city don't have 'ruffians,' but rather people who get it and can make a point. You are clearly not part of that latter category. josef – get a clue and grow some thicker skin. Nate’s comment *was* hyperbole.

Beating and dragging people out...? Thought us midtown workers were a bit more civilized than the ruffians in other parts of the city. Guess not.

I go a couple of times a week , and the food at most of the stations, including the sandwich station with the Peter Luger Chicken. The problem is that one of the dudes working there has decided he's going to try to take all the sandwiches upscale, so they all are a buck more now and have totally random names...like the grilled veggie sandwich is a called "the ladies sandwich [sic]." That eliminates half of your potential customers right there! You'll also see him aggressively pushing free samples. That foolishness notwithstanding, Variety Cafe seriously kicks ass. That health code violation was bs! I’m a huge fan of Variety Cafe. I go a couple of times a week , and the food at most of the stations, including the sandwich station with the Peter Luger Chicken.
