The toys thats right! I couldn’t remember. I remember like an old school G.I. hanging by it’s neck from the ceiling. It was pretty strange. Good place though. I’d say you’d enjoy Rutts better though.

Is that the place on St. Marks that has the really weird decor?

I know Secaucus all to well, used to work there myself. Wish I had ordered from your Chinese place while I was there. Never got around to it.

Thanks for the NJ recommendations btw, I’m going to definitely take those into consideration for this summer.

Have you seen the deep fried hot dog I had in the East Village?
It’s covered in sourcream and avacado. Check it out here.

White Mana, Hackensack – ABSOLUTE BEST BURGERS in the state. It’s an institution. If you are going to one place this is it (if you haven’t been there already)

Rutts Hutt, Clifton NJ – Deep Fried Hot Dogs – The relish is killer. Place has been there for like 40 years.

Hot Grill – Clifton, NJ – Another Texas Weiner place (deep fried hot dogs). Would go with the Cheeseburger “all the way” though. Which is a chili cheeseburger. Good stuff. The fries w/ cheese and gravy are a staple here. The gravy is an odd color but it’s fantastic.

I would say these are my top 3 that are maybe 25-30 minutes outside NYC. Drives aren’t bad and you could easily do a tour out of these 3. They are not too far from each other if you know the roads.

Davey,

Thanks for the support. Where in Jersey are you from? I’ve got a few friends I’m planning on making a nice food tour with this summer, maybe multiple food tours. What are some stops I absolutely have to make?

Oliver-

Great to hear from you. The truck is on the UWS but the one in Chelsea on 8th ave and 14th street is better.

Derek,

Sorry to hear you’re in pain, better tell A-Rod to be more careful.
