Wed Jul 03 10:19:31 -0700 2002 1263380 0 Owl 2 1263473 Went there last night for the first time-- suuuuuper laid back, low-key, however you want to term it. It's literally RIGHT above the Carroll Street F/G station, on the east side of Smith Street. They serve hamburgers/cheeseburgers ($2!!!), no fries (but I was able to bring in some potato chips purchased at the bagel shop next door); hot dogs with (or without, obviously) relish; chili of some fiery hot kind (couldn't try it in this weather). There might have been other foods listed, but I can't recall. Beers a-plenty for such a small place: New Amsterdam ($3), "Duff" (might have been Old Milwaukee... but for 2$ I didn't care), Jever, coule of others. And unlike so many other places in Gotham, you can order *pitcher*. There were also wines available by the glass which might have appealed to me if it hadn't been 150 degrees in the shade-- or if it were really a Yacht Club-- but I was perfectly content with my Duff in a syrofoam cup.

Love it. Wish I lived down the street. Tue Jul 09 18:31:00 -0700 2002 1263380 0 budino
