			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://koolbloo.com/index.html" target="_blank">Kool Bloo</a>, a small chain of grease pits throughout Manhattan, just opened the 24 hour take out/delivery area of their new East Village location on 12th Street just off Avenue A.  <strong>Kool Bloo has the potential to become the go to late night dining spot</strong> once the main room opens but there&#8217;s two problems: 1) Everything is overpriced 2) Their menu is overwhelmingly large.  I attempted to play it safe by ordering something low key, but that didn&#8217;t prevent a disappointing experience. I ordered a chicken burger, which I thought would be grilled but instead arrived breaded and fried, on a roll with bacon, lettuce, tomato, and melted jack cheese.  I also picked up an order of seasoned curly fries.  <strong>Read on to find out where things went wrong&#8230;</strong></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2083" title="nyc-food-guy-dot-com-027" src="http://nyceats.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/nyc-food-guy-dot-com-027.jpg" alt="nyc-food-guy-dot-com-027" width="450" height="337" /><br />
<span id="more-2081"></span><br />
Problem #1: the $19.94 total!  For fries and a chicken sandwich! You can see from the photo below that its a big sandwich. If you measure it out with your fingers against the football, the heights are pretty similar.  But most of the height came from the vegetables not the cheese and not the bacon, which brings us to problem #2.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2085" title="nyc-food-guy-dot-com-022" src="http://nyceats.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/nyc-food-guy-dot-com-022.jpg" alt="nyc-food-guy-dot-com-022" width="450" height="337" /></p>
<p>Problem #2: the $2.00 bacon never made its way onto the sandwich. $5.00 afforded a copious amount of curly fries which were crispy as requested. The generic breading on the all white meat breast was a little over-fried but the chicken itself was juicy and tasty.  The only excitement surrounding the generic roll were the sesame seeds.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2084" title="nyc-food-guy-dot-com-032" src="http://nyceats.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/nyc-food-guy-dot-com-032.jpg" alt="nyc-food-guy-dot-com-032" width="450" height="337" /></p>
<p>I&#8217;ll give these guys a little time to work out the kinks before I return and do something crazy like order the &#8220;Sticky Burger,&#8221; which features peanut butter spread over bacon.  Until then, <strong>I&#8217;ve got a mission for the readers: Check out Kool Bloo (<a href="http://koolbloo.com/menu.html" target="_blank">here&#8217;s the menu</a>) and let me know in the comments section what you ordered and how it turned out.</strong></p>
