The Return of the Automat
This place has been around for a couple of months now, but betwixed inbetween the head shops, tattoo parlors, and all around riff raff that is St. Marks Place sits this little gem called
Bamn Foods. In true old school style it is the return of the automat with such delights offered like chicken fingers, mini-burgers, terryiaki chicken sandwich, pork buns, and my personal favorite, the soft serve green tea ice cream.
The concept is simple. Throw 8 quarters into the slot open the screen and pull out a delectable delight. Its fresh, innovative, and quite good. Not to mention, jackpot for the owners, and for the drunken folk that partake in the snacks when the place is open well into its 25th hour of the day.
In any event, I wanted to point this place out to everyone, and then suggest a couple other hot items that they might be able to squeeze into these slots.
5. Fish Sticks
4. Mini Cheese Calzone
3. Mozzerella Stix
2. Crabcake
1. Fried Dumplings or Wontons
Have a good weekend.

It's been a while since my last post, and I guess after all the shit that went down; me crawling into a bottle for 2 months, the North Korean nuclear test, and now Bob Barker retiring, it just hasn't been a happy time. I tried everything to keep the creative juices going, however it just wasn't there. So I holed up at a dark East Village bar, became an expert at Big Buck Hunter Pro, and got my life back together.
That being said, some inane ramblings that I have observed here in the city over the past several months:
1) New Yorkers don't know how to commute on a subway. Four words, "Move the Fuck In"
2) Is it me, or are those leggings that have become fashion forward again really not made for fat girls to wear
3) The Mets were a pretty damn good team this year, the Giants are on their way, and the Knicks are a train wreck that will make for some great reality television.
4) Pabst is the new Bud?, Patron is the new Grey Goose?, Rum is still just for faggy Pina Coladas, and umbrella drinks
5) Lost is still a kick ass show, and Prison Break is slowly trumping 24, until Jack Bauer saves us from The Alien attack season, which will be led by Tom Cruise, and a regenerated L. Ron Hubbard
So, in honor of coming back, and our most lovable guy, Bob Barker (remember to have your pets spaid or neuetered you sick man), a new Top 5 of your favorite game shows of old and new.
