When chef Joe Dobias first decided to open up his own place he originally wanted to open a food truck or a sandwich shop. Instead his girlfriend and partner Jill Schulster persuaded him it was better to start with a restaurant and then work their way down, and so JoeDoe was born (for which we are thankful). But now, three years later, Dobias is realizing his dream. Yesterday afternoon Joe and Jill opened up their second eatery, a sandwich shop on First Avenue and Eighth Street called JoeDough, of course. Finally, East Villagers can dine on brisket sandwiches from noon till all hours of the night.

Still Got It: JoeDoe
In this city, restaurants come and go faster than you can say "sustainable locavore burger." And even though there are great new additions to the culinary landscape popping up every week, you've gotta give kudos to anyone who can stick it out for over a year. With that in mind, we bring you Still Got It, our tribute to establishments that continue to serve mouthwatering meals and drinks long after the buzz has faded—or if the lingering hype is still justified.
Video: East Village Chef Builds A Better Meat Munchkin
It's been just about a month since we met the latest Dunkin' Donuts frankenfood: Meat Munchkins. At the time, a brave young man named Seth tried them out, only to bite into a nearly frozen morsel coated in an unidentifiable gooey substance. But as far as ideas go, on a scale of 0 to Homer Simpson Fantasy Food, a pancake ball with sausage inside rates pretty high up there. To that end, the same determined young man recently set out to find a better version of the chain's creation; he challenged Joe Dobias of the East Village restaurant JoeDoe to build a better Meat Munchkin. The result can be seen below, in all of its wild flower honey goodness...
Midweek Special: NYC Restaurant Review Roundup
Here, pour yourself a morning cup o' contempt, courtesy Frank Bruni's review of Delicatessen (pictured), the overpriced, overcrowded Soho comfort food lounge where tools and over-privileged scenesters flock to judge each other. (You know, the place that's driving neighbors to urinate on it.) After conceding that "this seriously mediocre but ingeniously conceived restaurant" isn't catering to epicures, but rather "night crawlers looking for foodstuffs that double as alcohol sponges," Bruni decides that "many of these dishes are clever, but their execution is usually matter of fact and sometimes quite sloppy...How to pass the time? During dinner I enjoyed watching the Delicatessen pirouette, a 360-degree spin some patrons perform on the way to their seats, allowing them to appraise the room fully and be fully appraised by it."
