I'm making this bad boy tonight! What sauce would you recommend for it? Trying to create NYC pizza in Glasgow is tricky :(
Thanks everyone! I'm now in NYC and starting to work through the list :)
@korovka and @kathryn thanks for your help!
...I ate in island burgers 12 years ago, is it still as good?
@freets Yeh, I've read it. The places they aren't necessary local to the place I'm staying.
@eliselaurel this might be doable! :)
Do they still sell the Super Size meals in the US? They stopped it in the UK and I don't actually miss them. It was a total impulse thing.
@dsloth - cheers! I was pretty sure I could use the Indian bread now you've confirmed it :)
I live in Scotland and I really like Gryos (though haven't had one in years because we don't get them here), they seem like a healthier version of the donna kebab...not sure if it's true but I like to think it is.
I've never seen the type of bread they use for gyros in Scotland, the closest is nanbread. It'd be good to get a recipe for the bread so I don't need to travel 3000 miles to eat a gyro again :)
Hey! I'm in NY in a couple of weeks for 7 days and staying at the Hudson hotel on 58th/9th.

Top priorities for me are:
Breakfast (needs to be super local :D)
Pizza
Burgers
Hotdogs
Come on guys give it to me!!
Also, if you think there is somewhere I 'NEED!' to go to throw it in.

I can't remember a time when soda wasn't vilified. Of course, there have been some memorable gimmicks (remember Crystal Pepsi?), but mostly just a whole lot of high fructose corn syrup and not a lot of fun. Needless to say, the idea of returning to a time when soda was without as much baggage is definitely appealing. These three homemade sodas are contemporary takes on classic soda fountain drinks: a rickey, a phosphate, and an egg cream. More

I've got a confession to make: I love pan pizza. I'm not talking deep-dish Chicago-style with its crisp crust and rivers of cheese and sauce, I'm talking thick-crusted, fried-on-the-bottom, puffy, cheesy, focaccia-esque pan pizza, dripping with strings of mozzarella and robust sauce. If only pizza that good were also easy to make at home. Well here's the good news: It is. This is the easiest pizza you will ever make. Seriously. All it takes is a few basic kitchen essentials, some simple ingredients, and a bit of patience. More
This recipe requires no kneading, no stretching, pretty much no skill whatsoever to create a crisp-crusted, airy, chewy pan pizza. Top as desired. More
This recipe for classic burgers from The Martha Stewart Living Cookbook: The Original Classics looks simple, but as Adam said in his description of the book, is the result of a lot of work to find the perfect recipe. The... More

You'd be forgiven if your first thought when hearing mention of Georgetown's Bourbon Steak is... well... steak. But that's not what we're here to talk about today. It's about a bar snack at Michael Mina's Bourbon Steak in the Georgetown Four Seasons: the BBQ Pulled Pork Cupcake. A long time fan of Red Lobster's Cheddar Bay Biscuit (who isn't?), Executive Chef Adam Sobel created his own version with cheddar and scallion, despite the original recipe being a closely guarded secret, shaped it into a cupcake, and stuffed it with smoked pork shoulder.

This creates a slightly sweet, intense tomato sauce typical of New York-style slices. It's also good served with pasta. Read more about the science behind the recipe here.... More

The secret to our Chicken Tikka Masala is a salty yogurt-based mariade followed by intense charring on a hot grill. We purposely undercook our chicken so it can simmer in a creamy spiced tomato and cream sauce before serving. When done right, the sauce should be a multifaceted affair; A balanced blend of intense spice flavors with a gingery kick rounded off by the richness of cream and butter, with a splash of freshness and acid from tomatoes and citrus. As you bite into a chunk of chicken, the smokey char should work its way though to the forefront, to be slowly replaced by a new layer of spicing, this time intensified by its time on the grill. The chicken chunks should be juicy, moist, and tender. More
I've not got a smoker and I know not making it in a smoker will make it lose it edge but can you do this in an oven?
