Famous Halal Guys and Five Guys Are Great Hangover Food

Mixed Combo @ the famous Chicken & Rice Cart on 53rd & 6th Ave.

If you thought the Midtown Lunch commenters could get nasty, check out this comment on Something Awful asking for the best drunk/hangover food:

“Chicken and lamb over rice from a halal cart. Squirt enough harissa over it to scare the evil right out of you (and burn your o-ring when you’ve got the beer shits the next morning). Preferably from the 53rd & 6th cart.

Another commenter agreed, and added his own recomendation:

“I would take that cart behind the school and get it pregnant. Drunk, I almost always swing Mexican. If not Mexican, then Five Guys.”

Nice.

  • I meant “unsubscribe”

  • Well, ‘adamprato’, you are pretty good at “Didn’t even notice that” … a.k.a. running one’s mouth BEFORE putting one’s brain in gear.

    Fact is, there were TWO of us, and my wife plainly stated to the idiot that she did NOT want any fries. So, perhaps you, in your New Yawk wisdom, could explain to me why I got THREE orders of fries.

    Oh yeah, I am pleased that you like my hat. It is a Stetson (made in Texas) and the hatband is from a rattlesnake that made the fatal mistake of biting me in Kerrville. Since you are so infatuated with my hat, you could probably own one much like it for about $500 total.

    I wonder if you would like my Australian ‘Kakadu’ leather hat as much??? LOL!

    Cheers, prato.

  • It’s better to run your mouth before putting it in gear, than putting it in gear and starting off, from a purely automotive metaphor as this would stall the car. Next time, open mouth and insert foot.

  • CockChug09 – I freely admit and acknowledge that I make mistakes from time to time. I’m not embarrassed at all to admit it. I don’t post to blogs pretending I know everything *cough*

    Okay, so for my “New Yawk Wisdom”:

    – Assuming you didn’t pay for the fries (you said “I got” not “they charged me for”). Perhaps they were being kind and generous. I can see why such a concept escapes you.

    – Assuming you paid for the fries, then there are two options. They took one look at you and said “this guy likes to supersize it” and acted according to their expert knowledge of their clientel. Perhaps they thought “her lips say no, but his eyes and spare tire say yes”. Or perhaps they did understand the order at first, but they then proceeded to make a mistake *gasp*

    Cheers, CockChug

  • @adamprato – don’t feed the trolls. DocChuck is like that episode of The Simpsons where the giant billboard mascots come to life and the only way to defeat them is to ignore them.

    Just ignore the trolls and they go away.

  • I am NOT surprised to find out that ‘chris6sigma’ receives his education and/or amusement from a cartoon series, i.e. ‘The Simpsons’.

    But aside from such drivel, Mr. Prato, actually, I was “charged” for the fries, but did not notice the ‘charge’ until preparing to leave the restaurant (I rarely examine the bill, once I tender my credit card — a poor habit that I will have to correct).

    The ‘manager’ refused to refund the price of the fries, although the Five Guys headquarters (with a bit of prompting from VISA) did correct the transaction to my total satisfaction.

    Cheers, Prato.

    PS. I am totally surprised to hear a New Yawka admit that he or she (or you, in this case) makes “mistakes from time to time.” So refreshing!

  • IF you had an amex Black card there would not of been a problem.You fat pikey grit sucking pikey.

    Also…..i think he looks like chief wiggum, oink oink.
