As expected, the pizza puns were prevalent in the NYP article.
Philadelphia: Simple and Subtle Burgers at 500˚
I can't believe I just got Fresh Prince of Bel-Air-ed, Hamburger Today style. Well played, sir...well played...

Snapshots from the 2011 Grilled Cheese Invitational in Los Angeles
If I ever create a band, our first album will be called: "A splooge of hot Whiz-based sauce." Who wouldn't want to listen to that?

Dry Aged Burgers for a Good Price at the Brindle Room in the East Village
I had my first dry-aged prime burger experience at David Burke's Primehouse in Chicago this past weekend, so this is definitely making me hungry. Did the menu at Brindle Room say how many days it was dry-aged?
Poll: Ice Cream, Gelato, or Frozen Custard?
Milwaukee custard!
Report From the Sweets and Snacks Expo, Part I: What the Big Guns Brought
I'm surprised you didn't convulse into a sugar coma!
Payne's Bar-B-Q in Memphis for One of the Best Chopped Pork Sandwiches
At first glance I thought the yellowish/greenish-hued substance was an egg yolk or green chilies. But, the slaw sounds like a good addition. Do you happen to know what was in it? I'm assuming cabbage and some onion, but was it just yellow mustard as a binder?
This Week in 'New York Times' Food News
2 stars for SHO? After reading the review, that sounds about one star too low. He seemed to have very little complaints regarding the restaurant and scolded it for...well...doing great food in a bad economy?
A Sinfully Bad Burger at Cloister Cafe in the East Village
I'm sorry you had to go through that traumatic experience, Nick. For every Black Label burger there is a Cloister Cafe burger, I guess.
Dear Slice: 'Maria's Pizza in Milwaukee - It Deserves Attention'
Hooray for more Milwaukee love! I've yet to go here, as I've been away at school, but I have definite pizza plans this summer, and Maria's is near the top.
Where Do You Get Your Favorite Burger?
Mazo's or Elsa's On The Park in Milwaukee
Custom House Tavern in Chicago: New Name, New Chef, New Excellent Burger
I had no idea Custom House was remodeling. You mentioned that they are adding some new items, but do you happen to know if they are revamping the entire menu? The veal cheek entree was amazing!
What Are the Must-Eats in Your City?
From Milwaukee, I'd have to say Zaffiro's for some thin crust, Honeypie or Comet Cafe for some comfort food, and Sanford's for a great fancy place.
Best Burgers in Los Angeles from LAist
Just to let you know, the link that is supposed to go to Damon's top 5 burgers in LA is really linked to the Umami Burger site. Didn't make me any less hungry, however. :)
Today's Special Burger at RUB BBQ: Butter Burger
Hopefully not as much butter as Solly's. http://www.roadfood.com/photos/1850.jpg
Fresh Food on TV: Weekend Edition
That whole Chowdown Countdown show was a disappointment to me. They just took a bunch of places that Man vs. Food went and mashed them with all of the ______ Paradise (Hamburger, fried foods, etc.) locations. It just seems like I've seen it all before on that same channel :/
Portland OR: Apizza Scholls on KOIN TV -- 'Best Pizza in the Nation?'
I love how the reporter is just standing in the middle of the kitchen with two dough balls in his hands and talking while everyone is in the middle of service
Poll: Do You Prefer Fresh Mozzarella or Regular Mozzarella on Your Pizza?
Is regular supposed to be the standard shredded and fresh the sliced mozzarella from the ball? Or is fresh meant more literally - the mozz is was actually just made? Sorry if this question shows a bit of my newbism :/
Photo of the Day: Del Posto Chef Mark Ladner
He kind of looks like a character from a Pixar film. Anyway, he does great food and deserves to be up there in recognition with the "rock star butchers" and the like. Honestly, the only reason I know of him is from watching Batali on Iron Chef America (he is one of his sous chefs).
This Week in 'New York Times' Food News
Bill's seems the new "hip" place to hate. I've never been, but its just an observation.
Cakespy: The Pumpkin-Apple-Pecan Pie
Three pies in one? I'd expect worlds to collide and the end of space and time as we know it. There can only be one!!!...pie.
Street Food Profiles: The Burger Bus in Santa Barbara, California
There might have been a VendrTV episode on this, too. I'm not sure, though.
Introducing the Serious Eats New York Chocolate Chip Cookie Championships
I've heard that too, NotAmerican. I also heard that letting the batter rest overnight is another "secret." :)
