    Can’t get enough of Thanksgiving? Gobble up a turkey burger with the fixings

    Posted in Eat Out by Eat Out on November 25th, 2009 at 3:53 pm

    picture-24Not everyone has a Rockwellian holiday table to look forward to this year. Urban Daddy, that reliable mouthpiece for sad bachelor types, brings word that New York Burger Co. is offering its annual Thanksgiving burger Friday through Sunday (the chain is closed Thursday—sniff). A grilled turkey burger with mashed sweet potato, cranberry-orange sauce and (optional) onions is available on a white or wheat bun for $6.99. What, no stuffing?—Jenny Miller

    New York Press gets in on the Thanksgiving spirit

    Posted in Eat Out by Jordana Rothman on November 25th, 2009 at 2:22 pm
    Nothing says hard-hitting news like a turkey on the crapper

    Nothing says hard-hitting news like a turkey on the crapper.

    While we were busy rounding up the city’s best options for Thanksgiving, the gang over at New York Press was putting this little chestnut—their Thanksgiving issue—to bed. But you can’t judge an alt weekly by its cover, as the saying (sort of) goes, and there’s plenty of T-Day content to be found within, including this tale of a dude who sourced his Thanksgiving dinner guests on Craigslist. The Feed, for one, is thankful to see a cover-bird that’s less heroic than the glazed, glistening beauts featured in every food mag this time of year. Nonetheless, we’ll be going easy on the stuffing tomorrow.

    Last-minute Thanksgiving dessert: Benoit’s pumpkin tart

    Posted in Eat Out by Daniel Gritzer on November 25th, 2009 at 12:33 pm
    Pumpkin tarte

    Pumpkin tarte

    We know how it is—Thanksgiving is tomorrow and suddenly the prospect of cooking all that food is feeling a little overwhelming. You could hit one of these restaurants for the full meal, but if you’re entertaining at home, consider lightening your load with a pumpkin tart from Benoit. Pastry chef Youssef Aderdour has been selling the adorable 9-inch pies as a seasonal to-go item during the month of November, and there’s still time to order one (or more) for your turkey day. The tart features a liberally spiced pumpkin filling that’s wonderfully light and creamy, while the pâte sucrée crust lends a more refined quality than most pie doughs. Our favorite part, though, is the tiny candied pumpkin that graces the center. The little orange globe has been so carefully cooked in syrup that it appears raw, but the whole thing (well, minus the stem) is completely edible—a soft, fleshy confection that tastes of pie itself. The tarts cost $20 each and require a minimum of two-hours notice to prepare; they serve six to eight people depending on how hungry everyone is, and after a huge Thanksgiving dinner, no one should be too hungry…unless you really messed something up.

    Just in time for the cold, Ramen Setagaya adds new flavors

    Posted in Eat Out by Daniel Gritzer on November 24th, 2009 at 6:52 pm
    Ramen Setagaya's new soup options

    Ramen Setagaya's new soup options.

    The air will grow more brisk in the coming weeks, and with it come more frequent ramen cravings—there’s just nothing like a hot bowl of noodle soup to still an uncontrollable shiver. Ramen Setagaya appears to be positioning itself as the go-to place to satisfy that urge: The University Place location has recently launched an expanded menu, adding the spicy, sesame-flavored tan-tan men; slightly sweet curry with pickled ginger; and a vegetarian miso to their existing lineup of salt (shio), soy (syo-yu) and miso broths. It’s interesting that the ramen chain, which opened its first New York branch selling only the shio variety, has increasingly embraced a diversified approach. Some would say that’s sound economics, but to us it’s just a soothing dinner.
