Midtown Lunch

You still have a couple of more days to win a lunch from NBC’s food truck, which will visit undisclosed locations on Monday Feburary 8th with Chefs Daniel Boulud, Alain Ducasse, Michael White, and Paul Liebrandt in tow.  But there have been some complaints in the comments about the difficulty of the quiz… so we managed to snag a pair of passes for one lucky Midtown Lunch’er. The locations haven’t been released yet, but the passes will be for the lunchtime slot (Noon to 2pm).  And we’ll make it easy for you to boot.  Just post a comment below explaining why you should be the one who gets passes, and you’re entered to win.  A winner will be drawn at random tomorrow (Friday) at 3pm.  Limit one entry per person.  Good luck!

Less Than 1 Week Until Boulud Truck Hits the Streets

Less than a week to go before Daniel Boulud, Paul Liebrandt, Michael White, and Alain Ducasse hit the streets of New York in a food truck, and NBC is now running a slick ad promoting the whole thing. (Thanks to Lunch’er Robert for passing that along.) It doesn’t give you any of the extra info (like the fact that the truck will be parked on 49th and 5thand that it will be serving a burger topped with pork belly!) but it’s still fun to watch. Kind of got us excited… until we remembered that only 500 people are being served and you have to win your way in.

Daniel Boulud to Hit the Streets in a Food Truck

Remember last April when NBCNewYork put David Chang into a street cart downtown to promote their new website? Well, they’re at it again.  We’re hearing from a very good source that on Feburary 8th Daniel Boulud “and friends” will be hijacking a food truck to promote the launch of NBC’s new restaurant site. “It’ll be a bonafide truck, stopping at various unannounced locations through out the city.” And unlike the Chang thing, they are guaranteeing a Midtown stop. (My vote is for charcuterie sandwiches!)
