Tue Oct 13 06:15:52 -0700 2009 5099058 111618 travpard 4 5099091 That's pretty damn cool. :) Hope I have the same luck! www.thelunchbelle.com Tue Oct 13 06:23:26 -0700 2009 5099072 110996 LeahBaila 2 5099356 No ebelskivers? Tue Oct 13 08:02:38 -0700 2009 5099020 10936 kathryn 3 5099442 is that the name for the meatballs? Tue Oct 13 08:31:09 -0700 2009 5099356 111618 travpard 4 5099662 From Leah's link, it said they would serve meatballs and ebelskivers. https://www.madisonsquarepark.org/programs/default.aspx Here's what ebelskivers are: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%86bleskiver Tue Oct 13 09:42:20 -0700 2009 5099442 10936 kathryn 5 5099799 there was the stand selling meatballs, not sure if they had ebelskivers. Tue Oct 13 10:22:08 -0700 2009 5099662 111618 travpard 1 5099105 do you know if the prices are the same as at the restaurants? looking forward to trying these out Tue Oct 13 06:29:21 -0700 2009 5098982 18288 janethepain 2 5099117 it was around $5-6 for a taco, fatty dog. you would definitely need a couple of things if you want to make a meal out of it. Tue Oct 13 06:35:04 -0700 2009 5099105 111618 travpard 3 5099165 Here's a random q for you: Do these kiosks accept credit cards? www.thelunchbelle.com Tue Oct 13 06:55:41 -0700 2009 5099117 110996 LeahBaila 4 5099168 i dont think so. Tue Oct 13 06:56:24 -0700 2009 5099165 111618 travpard 5 5099176 Damn! Guess I'll have to wait 'til pay-day. Thanks! :) www.thelunchbelle.com Tue Oct 13 07:00:10 -0700 2009 5099168 110996 LeahBaila 1 5099261 Tried fatty crab's hot dog ($8) on Sunday, it was pretty tasty, but too much bun. Wafels and Dinges is of course delicious and made a good desert. Overall the offerings made me want to hold out for Shroom burger, but unfortunately the Shake line was looooong (no surprise there) Tue Oct 13 07:29:49 -0700 2009 5098982 14210 olia 1 5099273 i walked by the park on friday and don't know how i missed it. i only saw the tents selling the jewelry and knick knacks. i wish i knew about it before because i was starving. thanks for the heads up on this, leah Tue Oct 13 07:34:48 -0700 2009 5098982 1102327 tkm616
