Im in NYC for 4 days and want a good burger. Where should I go?

>> No.9377607

>>9377600
You're about five years too late, Keith McNalley and April Bloomfield both announced that they're done with burgers

Get a chopped cheese at White Gold instead, it's the latest "poor pleb food (((elevated))) for out of touch 1%ers" memefood around these parts

>> No.9377688

>>9377600
Honestly I'd say just a diner or bar most of the hyped up popular spots are just memes. Whereabouts in NYC

in-n-out burger. they are all over in nyc

It's pretty safe to assume Manhattan between battery park and 59th street

Nobody coming here is staying in Forest Hills, anon.

Regional fast food shitposting bait. It's all the same shit, "I'm used to it" doesn't make it good.

>>9377600
go to a grocery store and buy some ground beef, some salt, a bun, some lettuce, tomato, mustard and mayo.

make patties, fry them in a skillet, place between the bun with the condiments arranged however you like and then kill yourself

That area doesn't really narrow things down much and OP could be staying in Brooklyn or on the UWS or UES.

Black Iron Burger in Midtown is the best in the city.

>specifying an area representing 2% of the land mass of the 5 boroughs doesn't really narrow things down much
Just what level of specificity would be enough, then?

>and OP could be staying in Brooklyn or on the UWS or UES.
Ok, maybe an airbnb in Williamsburg, Dumbo, and maybe Park Slope or Red Hook. UWS possibly but less likely.

Remember kids, when people say "Manhattan" and "Brooklyn" they do not mean Marble Hill and they do not mean Howard Beach.

Idk about burgers but if you want an Asian buffet go to IchiUmi at 6 East 32nd Street. Ignore the health inspection sign, last time I went they had a C rating and I didn't die.

Why would he be staying in the UWS or UES? And if he's staying in Brooklyn he probably would have said as much.

Add a nice leaf to it, otherwise it looks fine.

it's fancy house made meme mayo. Could use some lettuce/spinach desu though.

There's this place in Maspeth, Queens called Good Eats, pretty good shit there.

>> No.9377887

I was thinking like a neighborhood level of specificity since the lower third of Manhattan is still pretty big and certainly doesn't constrain choices of burger places that much

Speaking of UES JG Mellon is known for their burgers, they're pretty good but suffer from overhype

CHA CHEESE

don't go to white gold for chop cheese that's some bullshit

send this nigga to spanish harlem

>> No.9378195

>>9378182
Haven't spent much time in Spanish Harlem. Can you recommend a spot over there with a good selection of biodynamic wines? Would prefer to drink it out of a brown paper bag for authenticity but a dixie cup would be fine too.

Op here. I have wifi again. I'm in midtown but willing to eat anywhere south of Central Park I suppose. Thanks for the recs I'll defo try a chopped cheese

all my friends say bareburger but i havent been

>shake shack (original location) @ madison sq park (23 and broadway)

is my favorite

>> No.9378537

>>9377600
if you want a meme burger go to shake shack in Madison Park

otherwise go to smashburger

this is assuming you're staying in the city, but if you can make it to Brooklyn (specifically Bay Ridge) go to Burger Fi or Burger Bistro

It's okay but it's far from the best. They have an interesting selection tho, I don't know where else in NY can get a bison burger

Five Napkin
Spotted Pig

Jackson Hole (big portions for a good price, but nothing special)

Spotted Pig is still run by Bloomfield, so not all hope is lost

McDonald's in Union Square, get a vanilla milkshake as well.

Bareburger is medicore and overpriced. Shake Shack is a much better point at that price range.

Airbnb have changed the game with this shit mate, if it's a accessible to the subway and the price is right, almost anywhere is fair game. Though since OP took a pic of Manhattan and almost everyone from out of NYC means Manhattan when they say NYC he almost certainly is in Manhattan

I've heard Boilmaker in the East Village has some breddy great burgers at a solid price
