[...] — if you order with 4 or more people, they’ll also throw in a frisbee. I have a feeling MidtownLunch would be all over this picnic idea if AQ Kafe would find a way to offer this for under $10 — [...]

Alas Zach, the prices at AQ Cafe just went up and now there are several items over $10. Including the Gravlax club (now a whopping $11.95) and (I’m sorry to tell you) the meatballs ($10.95). On the up side they have a new menu with new items that are just as tasty as the old menu. The Nordic Cuban hit the dirt though.

DAMMIT Zach that’s the last time I blab endlessly about my favorite “hidden” lunch places on ML. First Piece of Chicken, now this. Why don’t you do a week-long spotlight on the soup & sandwich deal at Fika while you’re at it!

Clearly I’m not a good Jewish boy (something my mom has known for awhile). I always wondered what the difference between lox and nova was. Is that the difference? Lox is brined, and nova is smoked?

Zach, every good Jewish boy should know that Lox is NOT smoked. Lox is SALTED salmon – just brined. Similarly Gravlex is not smoked. It is brined and dilled. Trouble is that Lox is too salty for many people, so they prefer smoked salmon.

I went to the AQ Khan cafe and it was the bomb.
