zaytoons has made me ill many, many times, but i still eat there because they deliver late.

wasn't someone else saying that about the pros hts location, too? that branch sounds like it has problems. i never had any issues with the original one (never ate meat there, though).
― lauren, Tuesday, 9 December 2008 20:06 (fifteen years ago) link
so the place i was talking is actually Palestinian in Sunset Park (i know, how accurate am i). it's called Tanoreen and i've had the food delivery once OMG.
― Surmounter, Tuesday, 9 December 2008 20:08 (fifteen years ago) link
oh, that place! it's in bay ridge, i think? it's supposed to be wonderful. we almost went there for lunch on sunday, but went for mexican in sunset park instead.
― lauren, Tuesday, 9 December 2008 20:11 (fifteen years ago) link
yes yes bay ridge. arrrgh i wanna go NOW
― Surmounter, Tuesday, 9 December 2008 20:12 (fifteen years ago) link
ian likely referring to the pros height zaytoons fwiw
― Lafayette Lever hi wtf (ice cr?m), Tuesday, 9 December 2008 20:13 (fifteen years ago) link
btw, lunch in sunset park ruled. went to la guera (aka ricos tamales) and had the most amazing soup (barbacoa) in addition to some great tamales and tacos .

where should i eat while home? looking for something newish and pretty moderately priced (entrees under $20).
maybe dirt candy, which opened on 9th st in november? it's non-granola vegetarian in a cute little space.
― lauren, Tuesday, 9 December 2008 20:41 (fifteen years ago) link
wasn't someone else saying that about the pros hts location, too?
yeah, me. I won't go there anymore. it's the same one Ian's talking about, the one on Vanderbilt
― dmr, Tuesday, 9 December 2008 20:46 (fifteen years ago) link
but dave, where do you order food from after 11pm?!
― ian, Tuesday, 9 December 2008 20:49 (fifteen years ago) link
or are you one of those people who eats at reasonable hour?
not that reasonable ... but not usually after 11 either
after 10 there's still a couple options, although some are on the park slope side and may not go all the way back to you (Antonio's Pizza, Helios, Joy ...)
I think maybe Teddy's goes that late? I like their gyros
― dmr, Tuesday, 9 December 2008 20:58 (fifteen years ago) link
Tanoreen is awesome. Been twice, once on a "what's Bay Ridge like?" lark and then on the way back from buying my Mac at the Staten Island Mall Apple store.
Zaytoons is like family to me. I love it, but I'm sick of it, but it's always comforting.

fairly poor experiences with the smith street zaytoons

i.e. there is no need to go to zee casbah -- we are ALREADY HERE
Has anyone eaten at Irving Mill yet? I'm very interested in the charcrouterie (sic) plate they do.
― problem chimp (Porkpie), Tuesday, 9 December 2008 22:06 (fifteen years ago) link

i finally had my first 5 guys experience* last night (the one on montague st). in-n-out, the gauntlet has been thrown. hard.
*lol "out of context" thread etc
― marjane satriani (get bent), Tuesday, 9 December 2008 22:16 (fifteen years ago) link
lol i think everyone who has eaten at five guys has spent plenty of time making the "i love to stuff my face with five guys" jokes
― beyonc'e (max), Tuesday, 9 December 2008 22:18 (fifteen years ago) link
in-n-out fans have their own special gallows humor.
― marjane satriani (get bent), Tuesday, 9 December 2008 22:22 (fifteen years ago) link
oh hey, max - where did you end up for your special birthday meal? i've been meaning to ask.
― lauren, Tuesday, 9 December 2008 22:23 (fifteen years ago) link
haha welllll we went to gramercy tavern and i was honestly sort of disappointed... ari hated it but i was just sort of nonplussed--the food was good but not great but the atmosphere was sort of terrible & steak house-y if that makes sense. not sure if it was an off night or what... id like to go back for the prix-fixe sometime! possibly had too high expectations?

― Lafayette Lever hi wtf (ice cr?m), Tuesday, 9 December 2008 22:34 (fifteen years ago) link
no totally they do i agree with this
five guys is overrated. Shitty fries, too.
― Dandy Don Weiner, Tuesday, 9 December 2008 22:36 (fifteen years ago) link
no wai--five guys fries are what makes five guys so great
― Mr. Que, Tuesday, 9 December 2008 22:37 (fifteen years ago) link
the things with the fries at five guys, is that they're really pretty good but they just give you so many that by the end it feels like yer eating salty packing peanuts.
― ian, Tuesday, 9 December 2008 22:37 (fifteen years ago) link
i usually dont fuk w/the fries cause then im just uncomfortably full - once i did eat 2 double burgers - i was really hungry that time tho
― Lafayette Lever hi wtf (ice cr?m), Tuesday, 9 December 2008 22:39 (fifteen years ago) link
yeah i think they've started to cut down on the number of fries they give you here in DC. last time we went we didn't feel toooo stuffed when we left. we usually split a small fries and we're totally blahgAHSghGAShlgS afterward with potatoes
