Queens in the house! January 2, 2010 1:18 PM Subscribe
Hey, New York City. Let's have a meetup Saturday, January 16th in Astoria, Queens.
I'm thinking Bare Burger for dinner at 6 p.m., followed by drinks at a local bar (I have a place in mind and can't remember the name- going to walk by tomorrow). Shout if you're coming, I'll call in advance and they'll set aside some tables for us.

Burgers in the nabes, can't say no to this. I get to sleep in AND go to a meetup.

One mostly-non-vocal vegetarian at least is fine with Bare Burger and hopes to not get into it at the meetup, though I know its a classic fight to have. Hope to be there.

Strangely enough, a vegetarian friend was the one who recommended this place to me. I can't speak to the vegetarian burger options not having tried them, but there are two, and all the salad options (which looked amazing the day I was there).

The portabello burger and the vegy burger (soy based) are both outstanding at Bare Burger.

I'll be there! It'll be my first meetup too (besides the 10th party in the summer), because you guys always hold it in bars I can't go to. :) :/
Also: has anyone ever had elk or ostrich? I did eat some bison meat once, but I can't remember what it tasted like, because the whole time I was eating it, all I could think about was the bison staring at me with its giant accusing eyes. (Cows and chickens don't glare at me that way!)
...okay, I just reread that, and on second thought, I think I'll just have the soy one.

The Ostrich burger is better than the elk. The Bison is almost as good as the Ostrich but not quite. The menu recommends which meat goes best with each burger combination. All three of these meats are leaner than beef but have different tastes. I've always felt elk to be a much more tougher, leaner, and taste a tad too athletic on a burger. It's not juicy enough. Bison is probably my favorite overall meat when it comes to a burger (except for Kobe Beef), and Ostrich is just tasty and fun to eat because how often do you get to eat ostrich?

I know and *love* Bare Burger! But I'm not sure if I'll be able to venture out with the munchkins to Astoria (depends on the weather, how they're feeling, etc.) I also (obviously) wouldn't be able to go to a bar afterwards.
How much lead time do you need for an rsvp?

I have some king cake mix I bought while in New Orleans that I never got around to making on Epiphany because I worked mad late, but according to research any time from Epiphany to Mardis Gras is technically king cake season. You think the Bare Burger folks would mind if I came with dessert? Honestly, I just want an excuse to eat freakin' sugary cake covered in colored sugar.

Hooray for an out-of-town visit from The Straightener. I might be going on a date night with the boy, but if not I'll hope on over from the G. Hopstop says it goes all the way up to Steinway Ave but that sounds wrong. Any Astorians care to weigh in?

Point of order: I think the G only goes that far SOMETIMES. On the weekend, I think it terminates at Court Square.
Zoomorphic, I looked into this and saw the best bet is the G to Court Square, then the 7 to Queensboro Plaza, then the W to Broadway. (Actually, in my neck of the nabe it'd be a bus to Queensboro Plaza, but that bus is a block from me.) It sounds like a lot, but it's only an hour total travel time.

I'm taking advantage of Martin Luther King Day to come get the quarterly Daily Beast free lunch that supplements the peanut packs they send me for stories. They make me feel like an important New York person for 45 minutes before I head back down the turnpike to my near minimum wage job in the bowels of a decrepit municipal building in Philadelphia. It's like Disney but with drug addicts and prostitutes.

Just checked the MTA website- No G Train at all this weekend! Find alternate routes. Honestly, it makes more sense to take the N to Broadway or 30th Ave as opposed to the RG to Steinway, anyway; it's closer to the restaurant.

posted by EmpressCallipygos at 5:51 AM on January 12, 2010
Just looked into it- I forgot that they just split the B61 into two buses, a local in Brooklyn that's still called the B61 and an express to Queens, the B62. The B62 is the one that goes all the way to Queensboro Plaza. The bus driver should announce where to get out; I think it's the last stop. The lucky thing is, if you don't get off in quite the right place, you should be able to follow the above-ground tracks to find the entrance to the 7/N/W.

Ok, I did not show up like I said I would, but it's not for a totally flaky reason. I had a bit of an...incident with my roommate on Friday morning (he decided to walk into my room, uninvited, while I laid in bed. If that wasn't weird enough, he was naked! Ew.) So I decided to skip town for the night. I just was too skeeved out to sleep in my apartment alone. (Friday night I had friends stay here with me, they were coming in from out of town for previously-arranged plans.) Yes, I have since kicked him out, but he is still here for the time being, I had to give him notice.
So, um...if anyone needs a room in Astoria, get in touch with me. It won't be available til March 15th though (damn lease, I had to give him 2 months notice). And you have to promise not to be creepy or inappropriately naked. I mean, yeah, roommates may occasionally see a lil something while the other is going from the shower back to their room and the towel is just slightly too small, but just promise you'll never wake me up with your genitals, ok?
Anyway, I am so sad to hear that I missed some delicious King Cake!! That coupled with my co-worker who is off to New Orleans this week (and has been talking about beignets at Cafe du Monde ALL. WEEK. LONG.) has been sending me into doughy sugar cravings something fierce.

So, um...if anyone needs a room in Astoria, get in touch with me. It won't be available til March 15th though (damn lease, I had to give him 2 months notice).

Finally uploaded my iPhone pics, hope they're not too blurry. Hope you're still ok, AlisonM, that is some mind-bogglingly creepy roommate behavior to have to deal with. Yikes.
