Thanks so much for the post, Zach! I got *2* free lunches from Pret today. Two employees were handing out flyers this morning and during the event. They weren’t stingy with the flyers, surprisingly.

At 12:10pm, I got in line midway down the block of 48th Street and got my sandwich in 15 minutes. From where I was, it moved quite quickly and the yummy chicken and avacado sandwich, organic popcorn and mini brownie were worth the painless wait.

I waited in line longer at Cafe Zest’s 50% event and had a harder time navigating the chaos inside. But damn, that food was worth the hassle.

Did anyone else try this?

Keep up the good work!

I just came from walking by this as I work around the corner. The line is so long, it’s not even funny. I decided not to wait. Guess I won’t do anything for a free lunch, lol

Lou: Acme downtown in the city has awesome wings and a great selection of hot sauces for every taste. The fried okra is amazing as well! Give it a shot. You won’t regret it.

Thanks for the feed back… I don’t know if maybe I’ve overlooked it, or I’m correct when I say there doesn’t seem to be much info about buffalo wings around mid town… did i miss that blog? or is there really nothing worth nothing in midtown?

to Lou — the best I’ve had in the city were at Hooter’s (and those wings were the only reason I’ve ever been there). The only one I know of is on 56th Street, just east of Broadway.

This is totally off topic… but I just had a craving for Buffalo wings and wondered if anyone had any good suggestions?

Thanks for the tip, Zach! Good to know about the flyer situation. I wonder how crazy the lunch rush is going to be there tomorrow…
