South Florida is hours away from its next gourmet burger. Andy D'Amico, Robert Guarino and Simon Oren are scheduled to open 5 Napkin Burger for dinner service on Thursday, June 16 at 5 p.m. The partners opened the first 5 Napkin Burger in Manhattan in 2003 to "give the burger its own stage." Eight years later, they've set their sights on Lincoln Rd – and are bringing burgers, sushi, salads, sandwiches & sides with them. We talked to D'Amico about burgers, Miami-friendly cocktails and controversial tater tots.
Grand opening is less than a day away – how are you feeling?
We're ready - as ready as we're going to be. There's only so much you can prepare for. We open for dinner tomorrow (June 16) and are shooting for lunch on Monday (June 20) and brunch a week from Sunday (June 26).
Tell us about the concept
We're a burger-driven American bar & grill. It started with the name, the burger and the flagship on 45th Street and 9 Ave (in Manhattan's theater district). We built a concept that's neighborhood-driven, accessible and has options for diners to revisit & eat at a moderate price.
We've got our fair share of highbrow burger outposts in SoBe – what distinguishes 5 Napkin?
My vision of an American bar & grill is more than burgers & fries. I think of maki rolls as the American component of a Japanese sushi menu, so we've got sushi. We've got traditional items like chicken wings and matzo ball soup, a big American craft beer list (80-100 varieties) and a large wine list. We fancy ourselves as being the burger restaurant of steak places.
What are your most popular dishes?
Burgers are king. Our sales are 78-80% burgers and the two big burgers are the 5 Napkin & Bacon Cheddar (#2). After that, I sell a lot of turkey & veggie burgers, streak frites, mac & cheese and buffalo chicken sandwiches. Our number one salad is our burger salad – by far.
You've got three restaurants in New York and one in Boston – what changes have you made for Miami?
We created some lighter dishes (chicken paillard, crab Louis salad, heirloom tomato & avocado salad side dish, Thai marinated salmon with cucumber salad); added some local beers; and updated our cocktail list – made some drinks stronger, some bigger & put more of an emphasis on the rum section.
What are your favorite dishes on the menu?
I'm partial to the 5 Napkin burger (10oz ground chuck, gruyere cheese, caramelized onions & rosemary aioli) – I think the flavors & the combination are unique. I'm also partial to the tater tots, although they're a bit controversial, as they're really a gruyere croquet, not the tater tots most people had in the cafeteria line at school.

Berlin: Restaurant Richard, Borchardt or Brasserie event space for large group dinner? Food at Borchardt is very mediocre. |
Kichisen is way more expensive than 20K. |
Budapest - rustic/traditional? help, please Try Rosenstein |
Weekend In Barcelona - What Not To Miss Just this past week I had the chance to revisit two favorites: Coure and Igueldo. |
Osaka Binbiya びんびや - need some help with menu translation :-) You must go. This place is wonderful. Honestly, really stunning. I wastaken there by a business contact and ever since it is a fixed point every time I visit Osaka. I do not read kanji and struggle enough with hiragana when not handwritten. My 'trick' is to have the hotel book seat(s) at the counter. I order immediately a ni-go of sake and then have a waitress or a person sitting next to me to translate the menu. This always works. They do many interesting vegetables. All the fish dishes are very good (binbiya means fish by the way) - the best buri-kama of my life. Make sure to close the meal with their hand made noodles. Also, plan well ahead for the trip going there, as it is in a street where the taxi cannot enter. KK, I envy you a little |
Barcelona-best area to stay in for restaurants For good food rule number one is stay away from Ramblas. |
Esszimmer is the best. Glad you got that. Now, would you believe that the Mozarteum music school gave the license for its students restaurant to a Korean family? It is called Hibiskus. |
Prague Very Special Occasion Dinner Sansho |
My plan for the sidetrip to Kyoto is finished Boring considerations of money, diet and health aside, my questions or very gentle pieces of advice would be - how did you get a reservation at short notice for Nakahigashi? I have known the place and the owner reasonably well for some years now and still I have to book three months in advance? - please check carefully the implied etiquette and self esteem of Kichisen's chef. If you were to tell him what your plan is, he might refuse to have you as a customer. Please report back on this one, should things go as I think they well might. - and just to make sure: do you realize that the ingredients your meals will be based on, will be the same each time - Kichisen, Kikunoi, Kitcho and Chihana will not drift far from what have for some 300 years now in Kyoto been considered the seasonal ingredients. I will read your report with deserved attention! |
3 days in Belgium/TYPES of waffles? Dear Sue, waffles, the real ones, are labour intensive. The dough, if well made and not just based on chemicals added to treated flour, has to rest. Live yeast is used and the proportions, temperature while resting, humidity and so on are unforgiving. Think of making bread or other patisserie. Many outlets take shortcuts, but this deteriorates the results. The real waffle is crispy on the outside and soft inside. In Brugge try Lizzie's wafels and in Antwerpen Desiree de Lille. For Liege waffles, pieces of tempered sugar, the size of coffee beans are added to the dough. So when the dough goes into the hot iron mold, the sugar caramelizes and even burns a little. The result is much stickier waffle, gooey with lumps of sugar. The Liege waffle is typically a product sold in bakeries or confectionery shops. Now that we are safely beyond any considerations of diet, weight control and caloric self-denial ... Do you know the very thin waffle cookies of the brand Destrooper? They make a crispy thin waffle, based mostly on butter. Look out for that one! |
Restaurant for Sunday night in Girona Sunday evening is indeed difficult, but Sunday late lunch offers heavenly options like Arros i Peis. They serve seafood and rice. |
Dear Suefh, Food wise Ghent is very much the happening city. More so than Bruges. Leuven inner city is not a foodie destination. De Vitrine - www.indewulf.be/devitrine/ Getting to Ghent from Leuven takes just under an hour by train and is very easy. Bruges takes longer. |
Tankuma Kitamise honten serves it. I remember most of all the yellow fat and the slightly charcoal grilled leek. |
Cheap Eats in Belgium - possible? In Brussels an honest lunch in your price bracket can be had at Noordzee. As I wrote before, food wise Ghent is where you want to be. Still your budget might squeeze out the better options. |
Make sure not to eat at Naschmarkt... Nice for a stroll or a glass of wine at Wein&Co. Maybe the miniature japanese bar Kuishimbo, but the rest there is best avoided. |
Bruges - De Karmeleit or De Jonkman? Both offer very very fine dining. Your decision could be based on the following elements. If money were a consideration, Karmeliet's wine list is not known for being a bargain. |
Reservations using a hotel concierge I am not familiar with Tokyo station area, but Shinjuku is paradise. Specially there you need to rely on inside knowledge, as the market is very competitive. If I were dining solo and not entertaining guests, I would tell the concierge my favorite ingredients plus a maximum budget, and request places within walking distance from the hotel. Strolling through Shinjuku at dusk with the neons taking over from the daylight and enjoying those two or three beers before your dinner. Man, you are making nervous with envy! |
Reservations using a hotel concierge Lucky you, November is for foodies one of the tastier months. Fish is fatter, plenty mushrooms, crab, monk fish liver, yellowtail collar and cheek, new harvest rice and new sake. The concierges of reputable upper tier hotels can be very effective. However, be aware that some restaurants will ask you to choose a set formula (or at least commit to a price range) right away when making the booking. Give us a hint of where your hotel is. CH is more fun when you use it to find things not yet endorsed by Michelin. We prefer to have you report back on a yet unidentified izakaya of 8000 yen, rather than tell us Saito would not have you for three times that. |
Artichokes - Conquering the thorny thistle. Help Dear JTPhilly, There are about as many different types of artichokes as there are flowers or mushrooms. Plus, not all of them lend themselves to all preparations. You must carefully opt for the preparation fit to the type you can buy fresh near you. Some plants will yield up to three flowerings in a year, the early summer bloom being more tender than the later ones. To cut this short: your first three questions depend mostly on what artichoke you bought and whether it was fresh. Fresh at the market in Rome where I buy them, means that less than 48h passed between harvest and you eating it. Then indeed, cleaning them and getting rid of 60% of the volume as waste, makes you think. But it is worth it. Try to find a type which white inner hart you find tasty when raw, dressed with just some olive oil, lemon and salt, possibly some shaved fennel, white mushroom and parmiggianno on top. Make that variety your benchmark for all other preparations. Please disregards all recipes that tell you to boil, pre-steam or bake for 30 minutes or longer. This simply makes all the flavor evaporate and leaves you with a soggy mush. It will look like an artichoke, but will have no taste. If someone told you to boil a rose in salted water, or fry it in oil, what would you think? I find stuffing and baking them, even with very fresh produce, a violation and close to murder. The preparation that yields the most aroma, is what the Pepin video shows between 5:40 and 6:50. Take of the outer leaves, shorten the stem, trim the dark green outer rims, continuously rub with a lemon, quarter them, take out the choke and use the soft white to yellowish inner parts. Pan fry those quarters in butter mixed with olive oil, little salt, until slightly colored. Add finely diced shallots, finely cut (stems of) parsley. Then deglaze with a good white wine, cover the pan and lower the temperature. Keep the lid on for 10 to 15 minutes. Puts the wedges on plates, reduce the cooking juices, add lemon and grate some lemon peel and fresh pepper over the plates. All the time you would have spent stuffing, can be invested in finding the right sauvignon blanc to drink with them. |
Most of what was posted here about Lokal is right. |
dear eli, You could step out of Grande cloche hotel en walk straight across the square, some 30 meters, and be at Comme chez Soi, one of the classiest tables in town. Two stars and strong on seasonal produce. I bet their menu right now will include Belgian specialties like white asparagus, morels, young eel, hop-shoots, grey shrimps, strawberries. |
Berlin, Viena, Prague, and Budapest- Sept 2014 hi briscopa Although it is not entirely clear what you expect from restaurants in general, I would make some substitutions, based on one guest eating fish only. In Vienna I suggest you drop Fabio (pretentious expensive fake italian) and Sosaku (imitation japanese and heavy smoking). Substitute by Konstantin Fillipou (top but cannot be combined with opera though) and Mochi (honest japanese fusion bar with great outdoor seating) In Budapest eliminate Fausto (average italian with very high prices) and Comme chez Soi, and replace with Onyx and Csalogany 26. (If you crave fish in Budapest you could go to the local Nobu, but the loudness of the music and macho attitude of some staff are just obscene.) In Prague I would forget about Kampa (mostly a location, rather than a cuisine) and V Zatisi, and rather go for dinner to Sansho (fusion tasting menu) or simple lunch at Cafe Louvre. In Berlin Vau, Rutz and Reinstoff were always my favorites but I could not check on new developments since four years or so. Enjoy and report back |
Breakfast ideas near the Zoo area. Berlin, right? Try Café im Literaturhaus in Fasanenstrasse. Not a low budget operation and occasionally very autocratic service, but the location is sensational. |
Belgium: Birthday dinner in Antwerp (or...?) Happy birthday first of all, early but valid. Just an idea. You could eat fabulous luxury lunches in Ghent, Bruges and Antwerp, where the food scene is really happening, and skip Brussels' overpriced mass oriented food industry. That option would give you the best value for money. In Antwerp check Het Gebaar, a place that does lunch only. You sit in a botanical garden over a century old. Booking very much necessary as Michelin has starred this. A short train or taxi ride to Antwerpen suburb Duffel finds you Nuance, my idea of splurge and birthday treat, if someone else not on student-type budget were paying. Here, your request to get beer paired to the tasting menu will lead to a fabulous result. In Bruges your choice is unlimited. Refter, for one, but many many other good choices for all budgets. Downgrading to mass tourism is however always a risk in this town. Ghent is right now booming. Top class local produce is the focal point in restaurants, ranked from low cost upwards, like Volta, J-E-F and Vrijmoed. Enjoy and report back |
Thoughts on Prague restaurants Your list is fine as it is. Just two or three small ideas to give perspective. Lokal is very good for lunch - no booking needed, just walk in. Less noise and less smokey than in the evenings. I prefer Sansho over Alcron anytime, but that is because Sansho is one of the rare places that serve reliable first class fish and seafood. Degustation is a matter of social standing. You will eat a large meal in one of the city's most expensive places. However, this type of fixed tasting menu with many small dishes, can be had elsewhere in Europe for less money and considerably better quality. Enjoy. |
Just my advice. You left out my favourite - Nakahigashi. Enjoy! |
Izakaya recommendations among other things in Osaka~ In Osaka look for a place called Binbiya. Superb, but you will need language help. Let someone else make the reservation, telling you eat everything (if indeed so) May is the wrong season for ankimo and shirako, I am afraid. Enjoy and report back |
Casual, local-feeling bars/pubs/restos in Munich, Prague, Copenhagen, Stockholm For Prague your request leads straight to LOKAL in Dlouha. |
Hi Ed, Antwerp will not disappoint you, there is a wide choice and recently the offer in the middle price bracket expanded considerably. A lot will depend on your means of transport though. Restaurants you must try are Ardent ( my current favorite) Wonderful for a quick lunch Strand van Oostende For splurge and special occasions go to Nuance (in nearby city of Duffel) Football Kelly's - irish pub near central station with many screens, many tourists, a few good beers and noise Old Trafford (yes, that is the name) - a bar near the former national bank building - just two screens, more insiders of the game, everybody knows the offside rule and no loud comments permitted, no noise, the very unpleasant owner can and must be ignored If Belgium gets past the group stage, public viewing areas are bound to mushroom. Enjoy! |

Paid a fraction of what many colleagues earn, adjuncts across the state and country are starting to join forces to demand better treatment.
Student James David and Metro State University Prof. Anne Winkler-Morey talked about the assignment she had just handed back to him.

In many ways, Anne Winkler-Morey loves being a professor. It's the job she always wanted, teaching history at Metro State University.
Except for one thing. She has no benefits, no job security or even a desk to call her own. This year, she says, she'll earn just $17,000.
It's a far cry from the academic career she dreamed of while earning her doctorate at the University of Minnesota. She's discovered the hard way that faculty jobs with a steady paycheck and a modicum of dignity are a shrinking minority in college classrooms.
For the first time, half of all college instructors are like Winkler-Morey: part-time adjunct professors who, critics say, are often trapped in a cycle of jobs that barely pay the rent.
"I spent 12 years training for this," said Winkler-Morey, 55, of Minneapolis, who started teaching 20 years ago. "I was making more on unemployment than I am now."
Now, adjuncts across the country are starting to join forces to demand better treatment.
"There's a perception that college faculty have the easiest jobs and are very well paid," said Maria Maisto, founder of the New Faculty Majority, a national advocacy group for adjuncts. "People are generally shocked, I think, when they discover what the conditions are."
As an adjunct, Winkler-Morey says she has no problem getting teaching offers — but they're almost always part time, temporary and a fraction of the pay that staff instructors get for the same classes.
It is, administrators admit, one way they've tried to fill gaps in the teaching ranks without locking themselves into long-term commitments.
"Yeah, it is a way to save money; I don't see any way to get around that," said Mike Reynolds, associate provost at Hamline University in St. Paul, where adjuncts now outnumber full-time professors.
For those on the front lines, the trend has been demoralizing.
"You certainly don't go into becoming a professor thinking you're going to be making poverty wages," said SooJin Pate, who has a Ph.D. in American studies and made $15,000 as an adjunct at Macalester College last year.
Surveys show that adjunct professors make $18,000 to $30,000 for the equivalent of full-time work; compared to "tenure track" professors who earn $68,000 to $116,000 (plus benefits), according to the American Association of University Professors.
Meanwhile, the percentage of professors in those coveted tenure jobs has been steadily dropping: only three in 10 today, down from six in 10 in the 1970s.
In the past few months, frustrations over the plight of adjuncts have boiled over in congressional hearings, online petitions (Better Pay for Adjuncts) and a two-day walkout at the University of Illinois at Chicago last month.
And there are growing signs of unrest in Minnesota. In January, Adjunct Action, an offshoot of the Service Employees International Union, started contacting thousands of adjunct instructors in the Twin Cities to gauge interest in forming a union. In February, Winkler-Morey launched a group called United Minnesota Adjunct Professors on Facebook, inviting adjuncts to share their concerns "so we can move toward a list of demands."
The concern goes beyond self-interest, activists say. They argue that the growing reliance on academic temp workers is shortchanging students.
"Adjunct faculty are running out the door because they have to teach as many classes as they can to make a living," said Maisto. That leaves little time for students who may need extra help.

I seriously hope this is not a private fight.
Some observations:
The GOP has, collectively, gone down a rabbit hole of craziness.
The other half of our duopoly seems to be on their heels.
My questions are:
Why do you think this is?
Do you feel cared for?
Are you OK with losing the benefits of a self governed republic?
In the absence of the notion of self governance,
can one expect the option of caring for one's self and others?

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama calls Geraldine Ferraro a political trailblazer who broke down barriers for women and Americans of all backgrounds.
Obama says his daughters - Sasha and Malia - will grow up in a more equal country because of Ferraro's career and her ideals.
Ferraro was the first female vice presidential nominee on a major ticket when she was Democrat Walter Mondale's running mate in 1984. He lost to Ronald Reagan.
Ferraro, a three-term congressman from New York City, died Saturday in Boston, where she was being treated for blood cancer. She was 75.
Obama says Ferraro "fought to uphold American's founding ideals of equality, justice and opportunity for all."

NGP Capital Resources Company Announces Organizational Changes And Recent Portfolio Activity
GMX Resources
On September 19, 2012, GMX consummated its exchange offer for its outstanding 5% Senior Convertible Notes due 2013 (the "2013 Notes"), pursuant to which holders tendering the 2013 Notes received new Senior Secured Second-Priority Notes due 2018 (the "2018 Notes") and shares of GMX common stock. The Company tendered its 2013 Notes in the exchange offer, and consequently received 2018 Notes with a face value of $12,661,000 and 3,646,368 shares of GMX common stock. The Company sold 300,000 shares of GMX common stock in September and an additional 254,000 shares in October 2012.
Interest on the 2018 Notes accrues at a rate of 9% per annum and is payable quarterly (commencing March 2, 2013) at GMX's option, in cash or, with respect to interest paid prior to September 19, 2014, either in the form of cash, GMX common stock, or a combination thereof. The number of shares of GMX stock, if any, to be issued in lieu of cash interest is calculated by assigning a value per share equal to the product of (a) 0.75 and (b) the 10-day volume weighted average price, or VWAP, ending the business day prior to the interest payment date.
Mr. Gardner commented, "We are very pleased to report the restructuring of the Black Pool Term Loan and the results of the GMX exchange offer, which we anticipate will positively impact the net asset value of our investment portfolio. These transactions were made possible with the focused efforts, patience and diligence of our investment team, working together with our portfolio companies, to deliver the most favorable outcomes for all parties."

Lawrie Sanchez will not rush into a decision on Danny Murphy's long-term future at Fulham.
Murphy moved to Craven Cottage from Tottenham on a season-long deal before the close of the transfer window in August.
The midfielder has scored twice in nine Premier League appearances and has expressed a wish to stay with Fulham.
But Cottagers boss Sanchez wants to assess Murphy over the coming months before offering the former Liverpool player an extension.
"All current players' contracts are reviewed on an ongoing basis," said Sanchez.
"Danny is here and has done well in the games that he has played.
"I'd like to see him over the course of the season - if we want to keep Danny we will keep him."

The frustration among Ellis County department leaders was evident Monday during a special budget meeting.
With Commissioner Swede Holmgren absent due to health reasons, Chairwoman Barbara Wasinger and Commissioner Dean Haselhorst pushed county staff to find cuts in their budgets. A $1.6 million shortfall was whittled down to approximately $900,000.
Reducing the timeframe of operations at the jail because of construction, changing the schedule for purchasing/removing capital and keeping subsidies to outside organizations at 2014 levels were among the proposed cost-saving measures.
The problems are attributed in part to financial changes enacted by the state, according to the meeting's agenda. Personal property tax revenue is expected to shift 7 percent to 8 percent.
Wasinger urged staff to find their own cuts.
"I don't have any great ideas other than just slashing things," Wasinger said. "I would much rather have you each do it to the best of your ability where you can shave off as much as possible, because I don't think you're going to like what we do."
The chairwoman said she is opposed to passing the burden to taxpayers.
"We just dipped into the taxpayers' pockets with the sales tax, and they have been very generous. I hear from everyone, 'Don't raise my taxes,' " she said. "I hear it at the grocery store, Home Depot, Walmart, everywhere. We're all trying to cut back and watch things."
Greg Sund, Ellis County administrator, said a 3-percent allowance in the budget for employee raises could be adjusted or eliminated.
Kerry McCue, Ellis County EMS director, said the departments' budgets are "bare-bones."
"Do you want us to continue the same level of services?" McCue asked. "We believe, I think all of us believe, that the current budgets that we're at are what we need to continue the current levels of services."
Wasinger said she does not believe the cuts will lead to reduced services because there are other places costs can be reduced.
"No one wants to reduce services to the county," she said.
The budget must be finalized by the end of the month, and the public will have the opportunity to share input in August.

Egyptian officials face negligence charges over painting theft

Egypt's general prosecutor stated on Monday he had referred 11 officials from the Culture Ministry to a Cairo court to be charged with negligence that led to the theft of a Van Gogh painting worth an estimated $55 million. The painting, known as "Poppy Flower", was stolen last month from the Egyptian capital's Mahmoud Khalil Museum.
The prosecutor referred the officials to a court in Dokki, the central Cairo neighbourhood where the museum is located, he said, according to Reuters. The court's first session is scheduled for September 14.
An initial investigation of the theft indicated "flagrant shortcomings" in security, state media said.
