I would never eat at Ted Montana Grill (on 51st btw. 6+7th). What is this Mickey Mouse, owned by Ted Turner, we make bison burgers and are environmentally friendly BS. I’ve got much better places to eat lunch. What’s that you say? They’re offering a $10 lunch special with mini burgers, meatloaf and more? Well, [...]

A new day, brings another sandwich entry in the Midtown Sandwich Challenge. Actually… another *two* sandwiches. That’s right. The Jamaican Dutchy cart (on 51st & 7th) has created two sandwiches, and one of them is the first vegetarian entry in the challenge. Although the spirit of the challenge is to create something outrageous and unhealthy, [...]

Uh… yeah. You heard me right. Soft shelled mother f’ing crabs on a Midtown by the lb. buffet. That is what I discovered at the Cafe Duke on 51st btw. 6+7th yesterday. I’ve already written a bunch about how much I love their by the lb. buffet, but this just put it over the top. Soft [...]

A few weeks ago I wrote about how the new Carribean Spice cart (on 46th btw. 6+7th) was distinguishing themselves from the Jamaican Dutchy (on 51st & 7th) by offering coco bread, the perfect vehicle for a Jamaican patty. Well, it turns out the Jamaican Dutchy has coco bread as well… in fact they’ve always had it. [...]

Julia Moskin has a great Jamaican jerk feature in this mornings New York Times and guess who should pop up, but our good friends at the Jamaican Dutchy (on 51st & 7th Ave.) She interviews owner Oneil Reid and calls his jerk chicken one of “the best truck lunches in the [...]

Gotta take it easy at lunch today so I’m in tip top shape for the Choice Eats Festival tonight at the Puck Bldg (advance tickets are sold out, but there will be limited $35 tickets at the door starting at 5:30pm- more details here). So, I headed over to one of the few generic Midtown delis I can stomach (Cafe Duke on [...]

After a one month “process” of securing a new license for their cart, The Jamaican Dutchy has returned to 51st St. & 7th Ave. And not a moment too soon (it’s getting freaking cold). A new line of hot soups, potato pudding and a complete breakfast menu has been added to the old standby lunchtime favorites, like jerk chicken, [...]

Midtown is about to lose an O.G. lunch destination…
House of Pita has lost the lease to their original location- the window space on 48th btw. 5+6th. You can still enjoy their delicious falafels & burekas (plus more) at the newer full service location on 46th btw. 5+6th, but today is the last day to get your fix [...]

Starting on Monday, September 24th The Jamaican Dutchy (on 51st btw. 6+7th) will be serving hot soups daily. Top of my list to try… the Chicken Feet soup and the Goat’s Head Soup. (I wonder if I can get Andrew Zimmern or Anthony Bourdain to come with me.) I’ve never been more ready for Summer to be over. Bring on the cold weather!
Thanks [...]
