Luke’s Lobster Makes People Go Batsh*t
Addiction, it’s not just for crack anymore (sorry Pookie). Thanks to the miracle of the Internets & Twitter I just heard about a Craigslist Post today from a guy who snapped because he hadn’t had his Luke’s Lobster Roll yet. Titled; “To the lass walking her dog” the post reads; I just want to apologize […]
Luke’s Lobster
Blink & you’ll miss this little whole in the wall. Luke’s Lobster (93 East 7th Street @1st Avenue) is nestled in-between the two Caracas Arepas restaurants on the north side of the street.

East Village Eats Tasting Tour 2012 Recap
Well it’s that time of year again when I trying to put into words the amazing food that I’ve eaten at Fourth Arts Block’s annual tasting tour. Superstorm Sandy put a wrench in the works, so coverage is a bit later than usual this year, but well worth the wait. As with last year, things […]
Hester St. Fair Arrives On Saturday April 28th
With warm weather in the air, the 2012 season of the Hester Street Fair is set to kick off next Saturday April 28th. I’ve had my problems with previous years & the crowding, but I can honestly say I’m looking forward to it. Every Saturday from 10am to 6pm through October 27th you’ll be able […]
Choice Eats 2012
I’ve been to a few Food Events over the past few years, so it wasn’t my first rodeo, but nothing prepared me for the scale of this year’s Choice Eats tasting event that took place last week. I thought I’d be clever & arrive 15 minutes early to ‘avoid the crowd’, but we were greeted […]
