Remember Obika, the Italian Mozzarella bar that opened in the atrium on Madison &#38; 56th last year?  Their sandwiches were pretty good, but a little small for the price- and I haven&#8217;t really thought about going back since the original +/- they got in November.  That is, until I saw [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In all the baby craziness of last week, I completely missed Robert Sietsema&#8217;s write up of Obika in the Village Voice. I can&#8217;t tell if he loves it or hates it, and he completely ignores the take out sandwiches (the only part of the menu cheap enough to interest me).  But if you love mozzarella, [...]]]></description>

*Sigh* &#8230; Obika.  What are we going to do with you?  When I first heard that Obika, the Italian mozzarella bar chain, would be opening it&#8217;s first American outpost in Midtown I was pretty excited.  It sounded really good.  Actually, that&#8217;s not true.  It sounded expensive. Imported meats and cheeses?  There was no way this place [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Restaurant Girl posts her list of best under $10 bites, and the take out menu at Obika makes the cut. &#8220;Order anything with mozzarella, especially the salted croissant stuffed with prosciutto or the ciabatta sandwich with basil and tomato.&#8221;  Also on the list&#8230; Midtown Lunch favorite Woorijip (on 32nd btw. 5th+Bway.)

Not only did they break their promise of being prepared today but they seemed to have done worse than yesterday: they apparently ran out of sandwiches at around 11am! [...]]]></description>

A few more bits and pieces of info about the newly opened Obika:
1. The takeout menu and eat in menu are in fact different.  The menu that was posted yesterday with all the under $10 sandwiches, etc. is for takeout only. The eat in menu is more expensive, and while not super expensive- is definitely not a [...]]]></description>

Lunch&#8217;er Bossman sends word that Obika (the Italian mozzarella bar in the atrium on Madison and 56th) is officially open, and even more surprising- everything on the takeout menu is under $10!  This is unexpected, and very exciting.  Takeout is available from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m.  A full readable version of the sandwich portion of the [...]]]></description>

The new Magnolia Bakery on 49th &#38; 6th Avenue is officially open, and take a good look at the photo above&#8230; because that is emptiest you will ever see this place.  Profiled Midtown Lunchers Rachel from Cupcakes Take the Cake, and Blondie and Brownie (from Blondie and Brownie) were there, so if you&#8217;re interested in [...]]]></description>

Got some great photos from Lunch&#8217;er Bossman today.  The first is from Madrit&#8217;s Pronto Pizza on 55th btw. 5+6th.  You may remember Pronto as the pizza parlor who recently added sushi, and was giving out free samples on the sidewalk.  As far as I can tell, the only reason to eat there over Tuscany Catering (also [...]]]></description>
