Welcome to the Lunch Quadrant, where we offer you four lunch options (two standing, two sitting) by a given subway stop. This week we look for eats around the 59th and Lexington station, an area surprisingly lacking in too many great food options considering the number of offices nearby. Which doesn't mean we weren't able to find food for you!

The Lunch Quadrant: 59th And Lex
The Mother Duckers
We came to win. We were prepared for the challenges they laid before us. Blind wines…bring it. Guess the spices…we came to play. Decorate the cookie…we’ll take down the pastry chefs. This was our mantra. Dirty or fair, we had one goal and that was to win the 2nd Annual Duckathlon sponsored by D’Artagnan.
Seeing Stars
The other night, Gothamist had the most decadent dream: in one night, we ate at Hearth, WD-50, Asiate, Public, Cru, Sumile and Per Se. We sipped wines from all over the world, and nibbled on delectable desserts from Spice Market. When we woke up the next morning, we realized that it wasn't a dream after all -- it was the StarChefs.com annual Rising Stars Revue, and Gothamist was there.
