Just ate at bgrs and cupcakes. It was awful. 1:30 sunday afternoon and the iceberg lettuce that served with the burger was brown on the edges. The pickle also looked like it had been sliced the day before. I had the cheese fries which are a joke. They are a regular order of fries with two slices of cheese melted on top, not a cheese sauce like most other places. It looked like a recipe out of a cookbook for kids. In fact I woul dave totally The Bison burger was ok but not good. The best burger for my taste is the Shack burger from shake shacke. And the BLT Chilie Cheese fries rock as well as the shakes. Eat at the bar don't wait for a seat. The decor misses the mark too. Pepto bismol pink and dark brown just don't blend well. .

>On a particularly unappealing stretch of Ninth Avenue (our closest landmark is B & H Camera)... Will someone please, please open a sushi bar in this vicinity!!! For real. We go two places to get our taxes done and the best bacon/egg/cheese sandwich in the city but nada as far as sushi...

Veggie burgers are insulting, and none are more so than the veggie burgers at Burgers & Cupcakes. While I thoroughly enjoyed (and highly reccommend) the beef burger, my vegetarian friend took one bite of her veggie burger to find a bright magenta mess made entirely of beets. Ain't nothing wrong with beets, but they're certainly not what she expected to find in a burger. It also looked pretty unappetizing. Other than that (and consistently slow service), Burgers& Cupcakes is delish.

Tabatchnik vegetarian chili is actually quite good -- otherwise I'm inclined to agree that it's usually pretty bland.

Wait a minute. An article that contains the word "burger" and nary a mention of the vaunted Shake Shack? I don't believe mine eyes.
