Today is National Holiday in Belgium, and to celebrate Wafels & Dinges will be giving out free tastings of their newest ice cream flavor, Belgian Madness. The ice cream is made with honey, lemon and Hoegaarden beer and while they’ve been serving it for a few weeks now, today is the official launch day. Plus between Noon and 1pm you can get a free cone of the stuff (or you can get it as a gratis topping on a waffle) at all their carts and trucks. The truck should be parked on 46th between 5th and 6th (if they don’t get shooed by the cops like last week) and they have a cart on 40th Street between 7th and 8th Avenue. Just be sure to check the ML Twitter Tracker before you head out. (Photo courtesy of Blonde & Brownie)

E & E Grill Offering Free Coffee This Morning: E&E Grill House, the new steak place on 49th btw. B'way+8th, is launching their new grab and go coffee program this morning and to celebrate they're giving away free cups of Barrington Roasters coffee to their first 1,000 customers before 10am all day long. They're not open for lunch yet, and we're doubtful their lunch menu will be in the ML price range, but we'll take some free coffee! Freeloaders engage.
