Midtown Lunch

Free Bagel Alert: You know what's better than an Ess-a-Bagel w/ cream cheese (on 3rd btw. 50+51st)? A free Ess-a-Bagel with cream cheese. Today's Scoutmob deal is good for 100% off a single bagel w/ cream cheese. Translation: free bagel! You have until the end of the day today to claim the deal...

2 Bros 46th Finally Reopening Today: Remember the fire that closed down the branch of 2 Bros. Pizza on 46th btw. 5+6th back in October? Well, they finally got the place fixed and it is back open as of today. Dollar pizza for everybody!

Get 50% Off Schnitzel & Things: Not that any of us needs any convincing to eat at Schnitzel & Things, but today's Living Social deal offers $12 worth of food for just $6 at their brick and mortar location on 3rd avenue btw. 45+46. In other words, you'll get a Schnitzel Sandwich and a side for just $6. You're welcome.

Rickshaw Dumplings Kiosk To Open Monday?: Looks like the final Times Square kiosk is finally set to open! They let me know via twitter a couple weeks ago that they were going to open in December, and now Rickshaw Dumpling Bar tweeted this week that their kiosk will open on Monday. Seems like odd timing, with New Year's Eve insuring that the kiosks will most likely be moved again in the next week, but for fans of RD- finally having a steady supply of dumplings in Midtown West will be cause for holiday cheer.
