Midtown Lunch in The Paper of Record
I don’t even really know what to say. I started Midtown Lunch three years ago this week as an excuse to stuff my fat face during lunch. And somehow that has lead to this? It’s kind of ridiculous.

like usual, the Times is way late in picking up on the awesome. Congrats and thanks for making our lunch time better

congrats Zach, I really think this couldn’t go to anyone more deserving.

Great article, you totally deserve this, your site is great. I’ve been working in Herald Square for eight years and really appreciate you came along to discuss some alternatives to salads and delis.

way to go. your site has been my saving grace, and has actually made me somewhat disappointed that i’m leaving midtown soon.

The reporter didn’t pull a Jason Blair and not actually try the Kati roll? ha ha. Congrats Zach, you may end up getting juiced plates like when a restaurant recognizes a reviewer!

Congrats Zach! I followed this site for nearly three years, and I still look forward to reading it everyday even though I no longer work in Midtown.
-

You certainly deserve props for your services to the Midtown Lunch community. Can’t think of a cooler form recognition than having the Times acknowledge you. Congratulations!

what amazes me about webonomics is that you have enough people clicking on the ads to be able to do this “full time.” In the 3 years i’ve been reading the blog, i don’t believe i’ve ever clicked an ad. people must be very easily distracted or have lots of time on their hands. good for you though.
