If you’re not going to Citi Field Saturday and if you love barbecue and grilling and you’ve always been curious about what competition cooking involves, get out to Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn this Saturday to watch Smoke In Da Eye defend their Grillin’ on the Bay 2008 title.

NYC Best Sandwiches: Tiny’s Giant Sandwich Shop Is No Pun (Vegetarians Welcome)
February 20, 2009
Not that we didn’t already know, but Tiny’s Giant Sandwich Shop, on the corner of Rivington Street and Norfolk Street in the Lower East Side, is awesome. Seriously spicy chipotle mayo fires up the off-the-menu “Chicken Special” filled with juicy grilled chicken, thinly sliced tomato and onion, crisp bacon, and melted cheddar on a toasted [...]

Food Fight: This Movie is Awesome. See If You Can Figure Out the Analogy.
November 20, 2008
My food blogging/comedian friend Jon, writer of the Boston-based Food Fight! put me on to this insanely creative video which I watched 5 times in succession. Apparently, food is not love, it’s war. This just goes to prove, playing with your food has a purpose. Told you Mom and Dad.

NYC Chicken & Burgers: Cookout Grill Disappoints
November 17, 2008
THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED
Since moving from the Upper West Side to the East Village, I haven’t found any chicken as good as Chirping Chicken on 77th Street & Amsterdam Avenue. Cookout Grill, which opened on 13th Street & 1st Avenue in October, has a wood fired rotisserie, an open flame grill and a sign [...]
Five Guys Hot Dog: Delicious With Bacon, Cheese & Jalapenos
November 7, 2008
Sometimes you just feel like shaking it up. And sometimes you feel like it would be a bit redundant to post another rosy review of Five Guys Burgers. Whatever your motivation is, the next time you’re at Five Guys you too should get a bacon cheese dog. Add some jalapenos, since all [...]
Doritos Week at the New Yorker’s Cartoon Lounge
September 18, 2008
Do you like cartoons? Do you like Doritos? How about cartoons and Doritos? NYC Food Guy loves both, particularly Woody Woodpecker and Nacho Cheese Doritos inside egg salad sandwiches (TRUST ME!). Well we’re all in luck because the cartoonists at New Yorker are writing some funny stuff about Doritos, life and the crazy world [...]

Big Apple Barbecue Block Party Rocks: Review to Come
June 9, 2008
I learned three things this weekend: Big Bob Gibson & Chris Lilly’s Pulled Pork is melt in your mouth amazing, Salt Lick Bar-B-Que’s Brisket is the best I’ve ever had and everything I thought I knew about Barbecue is nothing compared to what I have to learn. Enjoy the collage, review to [...]
Island Burgers and Shakes: Gluttony at its finest
May 30, 2008
65 varieties of flame-grilled burgers or grilled chicken sandwiches (called churascos). Sixty five! And that’s not counting your own creations. The possibilities are limitless, but once you decide on what you want, I went with a Tijuana ($9.25, pictured below), with bacon, jack, guacamole, and sauteed onions, you’re in for a heart-stopping treat. [...]
Carnegie John’s Chicken Kebab Sandwich
May 29, 2008
Carnegie John’s cheeseburger is delicious. It’s griddled, grilled, and griddled again before being adorned with American cheese, lettuce, and tomato and then sandwiched in a fluffy, white bun. The Chicken Kebab sandwich ($4.50) is equally simple but not nearly as delicious.
Chunks of grilled marinated chicken tasting faintly of lemon are packed loosely into a ordinary [...]
