Yes, the homeboys are adding a Mikkeller brewpub/HQ, but there doesn't appear to be anything new-- save an Impossible Burger or two-- lurking in the water for the culinary minesweepers among Metfolk.
God help me... I am a little curious about them thar Blue Jay Distillery "Poutine" (pulled pork, whiskey-raisin gravy, and curds over tater tots):

*Okay, there's a "World's Fare" street-food orgy with an admission charge, coming in late April. But would it have killed you to jam some tacos inside some other tacos, CitiFolk?

You lost me at Aramark.

This sounds like it will be quite good. Smashburger offers fried pickles as a side, and they are amazing.

The Mets are having an event tomorrow to show 'what's new' to the media (And not me this year, not that I'd justify taking a day off to go, but boo, that was a fun event)

Farts. Makes sense. The pacing of their build all winter definitely had me doubting an Opening Day Opening.
Yeah, but... there are probably hidden Cheetos in there! BTW, as someone who has-- on a semi-dare-- used Cheetos as an entree component (breading for hake) and "Hot Lime" Takis as a salad ingredient... I'm not sure anyone should be touting them as a feature. As to Aramark, well, you may take issue with some of their doings, but you can't say their offerings this season don't have balls: behold the Rockies Rocky Mountain Oyster Po'Boy.

I meant when is Mickkeller open. I might be at Citi for either the Monday or Tuesday game.

oh. they don't know yet. Not privy to any insider info here. Sounds like they're having issues with the city/license/whatever.

Looks like that Blue Smoke fried bologna sandwich is gone for good.

Some of this new stuff looks like the most overloaded Primanti's sandwich stuffed inside of a lasagna. And then wrapped in a taco shell. Yummy. I can't wait. /rolls eyes.

No clue if its good or bad that they aren't incorporating Bud Light and "DILLY, DILLY!" in with that. Either way, they are truly NOT a friend of the crown! I mean the ad campaign hasn't gotten that stale and obnoxious yet, has it? =;)

Annoying! They should be ready when I come there! I come all this way... =;) Joking aside, I wonder what the issues would be? And if it would be easier for an established area brewery like a Queens, Third Rail, LIC Project, etc to get in as opposed to a company coming in from Denmark. Though they do have locations in California, so I don't know.

wouldn't matter. new business location, new certificate of occupancy and liquor license and all that. inspections/bribes, etc. They're making beer and have relationships with brewers in the area to brew at so there will be beer in the stadium. But by now they should be promoting their opening day tap list.

Speaking as a guy who considers and attempts to solve food-production problems for money... the dog inside the pickle is kind of problematic. I mean, the dog would have to be cooked (and smoked?) prior to stuffing... but even then, if you're going to get the thing cooked enough to warm the dog through for serving, you're going to turn the pickle to mush. Excess moisture seems like it would be an issue, as well. There's a handful of other concerns with this that I have, and that's before you get to the whole WHY THE LIVING HELL ARE YOU STUFFING THIS THING INSIDE THIS OTHER THING, WITH WHICH IT DOESN'T PAIR THAT WELL ANYWAY matter. Pickle inside giant sausage MIGHT work better (at least, construction-wise). Even better, if you want to go fried-stuffed-pickle, might be going with a fried inside-out rollmop. Get some pickled trout or herring up in a giant cornichon-ish cuke pickle, and batter/fry that business, and that's a thing to have with a lager or three.
I mean, you could make one at home. Bur, y'know, you'd need some serious testicles to do so.

... said a big dummy several days ago, speaking way too soon. Oh, the Nas-underwritten chicken. Oh, the orange-cream Italian ices. Oh, the seemingly-endless breaded-and-fried cheese things! And-- Ye Gods-- that raclette-smothered, cornichon-loaded Alpine Brat... ... and Rao's short-rib-laden steak pizzaiola sub. I want to go to there, and put my face inside.
