Perhaps the ladies want to shop and the men want to go drinking at the best pubs (or the other way around!). No problem, customize 2 carnets and send to each person’s smart device. Or, you can do it the old fashioned way and print it to take with you!</p> <p>Other destinations available on Carnet.com are London, Milan, Venice, Rome, Los Angeles, New York and San Francisco. </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/bacon-milkshakes#post-23248 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 15:21:48 -0500 deanlo 23248@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p><a href="http://sfist.com/2012/02/03/jack_in_the_box_unleashes_a_bacon_m.php" rel="nofollow">http://sfist.com/2012/02/03/jack_in_the_box_unleashes_a_bacon_m.php</a></p> <p><a href="http://sfist.com/2012/02/03/sfist_reviews_the_bacon_shake_by_ja.php#photo-1" rel="nofollow">http://sfist.com/2012/02/03/sfist_reviews_the_bacon_shake_by_ja.php#photo-1</a></p> <p>Well yeah, how did you think it would turn out? </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/coors-lite-silk-worms-and-fried-chicken#post-23224 Wed, 01 Feb 2012 16:09:49 -0500 vdubjb 23224@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p><a href="http://www.dallasobserver.com/2012-02-02/restaurants/at-tto-tto-wa-bistro-the-happy-marriage-of-korean-fried-chicken-and-beer/" rel="nofollow">http://www.dallasobserver.com/2012-02-02/restaurants/at-tto-tto-wa-bistro-the-happy-marriage-of-korean-fried-chicken-and-beer/</a> Texas is big and crazy! </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/food-trucks-for-pups#post-21791 Mon, 20 Jun 2011 12:16:00 -0500 Goats 21791@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p><a href="http://thebark.com/content/more-food-trucks-pups" rel="nofollow">http://thebark.com/content/more-food-trucks-pups</a></p> <p>We need one of these in the City!

In these five cities, the fast food company is testing four different prototypes for redesigned Wendy's restaurants throughout the world.</p> <p>Two existing stores have been remodeled in each city to showcase two of the four prototypes. Construction on the first redesign, at one of the Columbus locations, began in July and took just six weeks.

Some of us tip our mailment, paper delivery, etc. I used to get my coffee from a stand outside my building and during the holidays would throw him a 20 or so. However, 2 years ago he left and I started going to starbux in my building. I only drink black iced coffee so I wasnt getting raped. Immediately I was a regular to them and they told me about the Sbux account which gets me free refills, so i now spend less than i ever did. (this is not an add/shill, I promise). Anyway, I could just put some loot in the tip jar but was wondering if anyone had any ideas that a group of baristas would enjoy. Cash is great if its one or two people, but there are probably 10 employees, and even a $50 wouldnt get to far. Any ideas? </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/congradulations-zach#post-22722 Mon, 14 Nov 2011 12:12:15 -0500 Mamacita 22722@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>;-) </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/the-role-played-by-the-housing-societies-for-greater-development#post-22525 Wed, 19 Oct 2011 03:09:03 -0500 Griffin41 22525@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>When considering the proliferation of low cost apartments and <strong> <a href="http://www.abadbuilders.com/" rel="nofollow">Homes Kerala</a></strong>could make rapid strides mostly due to the sincere efforts of the cooperative housing societies. Some of the major guidelines for the allotment of land to these societies are that<br /> (i) Land is to be allotted on first-come first-serve basis, at predetermined rates, and there is to be no allotment of land in the rural areas.<br /> (ii) Number of dwellings per acre is to be 60, although there is a proposal to increase this limit up to 100, and<br /> (iii) Ordinarily not more than two acres are to be allotted to a society and an apartment built by a society should not have a carpet area exceeding 2,000 square feet. </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/do-you-miss-pizza-cone-make-your-own#post-22519 Tue, 18 Oct 2011 09:22:08 -0500 Spydr331 22519@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>I went on lifehacker.com today, and found pizza cones on the front page! they link to an instructable about making a pizza cone from scratch</p> <p><a href="http://www.instructables.com/id/pizza-cones/" rel="nofollow">http://www.instructables.com/id/pizza-cones/</a></p> <p>just thought that was interesting to pass along. probably way more trouble than a regular pizza but hey, novelty and nostalgia </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/french-ban-ketchup-in-cafeterias#post-22457 Thu, 06 Oct 2011 09:30:46 -0500 vdubjb 22457@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p><a href="http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/world/la-fg-france-ketchup-20111006,0,1095831.story?track=rss" rel="nofollow">http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/world/la-fg-france-ketchup-20111006,0,1095831.story?track=rss</a></p> <p>what are you supposed to put on your freedom fries there? </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/docchuck#post-4577 Wed, 04 Nov 2009 10:42:21 -0500 Fred 4577@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>In the comments on a fairly recent MTL entry (<a href="http://midtownlunch.com/2009/10/23/midtown-links-the-chicken-pot-pie-edition/)" rel="nofollow">http://midtownlunch.com/2009/10/23/midtown-links-the-chicken-pot-pie-edition/)</a>, Zach indicated he was considering banning me and DocChuck as he is "sick of the same back and forth every day"</p> <p>I understand this concern, and promised in a subsequent comment that I would cease and desist; and I have kept that promise</p> <p>I will confine my comments on DocChuck (&#38; his many alternate login identities) here, and intend it to serve as a reference on the subject</p> <p>Full disclosure:<br /> 1) I'd like to see DocChuck banned from this website, just as he is from most other well written food websites, like SE and OTB<br /> 2) I (like DocChuck) am not located in NYC, but I like to read about NYC, especially it's food scene.
