Sweet sassy molassy! Ugh, my first experience with Coke Plus did not impress. A very nasty after-taste coupled with a less-than-refreshing during-taste. I did like the San Francisco-licious rainbow branding, but I don't think I'll be getting my daily vitamin supplement from this drink. I'm sticking to my regular regimen of Coke Zero and Flintstones Chewables....

An immersion blender is a great tool, I agree. Crucial for blending soups to a creamy consistency. But, of course, I have to weigh in with the best kitchen gadget of all time: the butter dispenser. http://www.medianugget.com/2004/07/butter_dispense.html

Jenny is a big fan of the turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes combo that is most often presented as an open-faced turkey sandwich. We've tried some saloons and a few chain diners, but we really haven't found "the place" to enjoy this delicasy. Usually, for comfort food, it's Blue Plate or Chow or Home, but in this case, we're not sure. Is the open-faced turkey sandwich bound for oblivion????

I too love Veselka for their Ukranian/Polish foods... in my opinion they have the best borscht in the city. But their burger just didn't do it... it wasn't horible or anything, but definitly not top 10. I haven't been to Blue 9 in like over a year, but the more burgers I eat at all the other joints in the city, the thought of Blue 9 having a top 10 burger also now seems slim. I didn't mean to lump my comment about Burger joint and Goodburger with Blue 9... those two have a good product, I think Blue 9 is good if you're in the area, but that's about it. How about Roll-n-Roster? anyone tried that place down the street from Blue 9?

Interestingly enough, when I was in Amsterdam 2 years ago, since I was in a hurry, I did pop into a McDonald's, and the Quarter pounder is a Royale with Cheese over there too
