Let’s Go Knicks!

Since we’re quickly approaching basketball season, I figured I’d put out a review on one of the worlds most famous arena, Madison Square Garden. The Garden is working on an approximate $800 million renovation, which is taking three stages to complete. But what has thankfully already been completed, is the addition of many new and delicious food vendors throughout the Arena. (For a complete list see the NY Times Article here: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/09/21/dining/madison-square-garden-gets-a-new-menu-with-its-upgrade.html?pagewanted=all)

The Daily Burger serves burgers on English muffins (that somehow don’t get soggy?). Don’t forget about the bacon/onion jam. The regular burger will cost $8.65 while the cheese burger with the jam will cost you $9.95. Now why does Foodergie pick this up as an allergy alert? Because in the tiny corner of the menu displayed above the counter, there is a note that says that the bacon/onion jam contains shellfish! The good news? You can order the burger without the sauce, and add your own condiment at the stands at the garden.

Foodie Rundown:
If you’re not allergic to shellfish, the burger with cheese, with the bacon/onion jam is outrageous! You’ll feel like you stepped out of the garden and into one of Drew Nieporent’s restaurants. Oh wait, you kind of did?! (Drew is also the owner of Tribeca Grill, nobu and Centrico – just to name drop a few).
