Hope everyone had a great weekend, and took advantage of our non-stop 12 Days of Giveaways.  Today’s promotion is a double whammy, so fashion and food lovers listen up!

We start things off with an awesome t-shirt giveaway from our friends at BQT, who’ve been producing some of the coolest local tees in the borough.  Totally in love with their unique designs that pay homage to our fabulous borough, we think you’ll love their Queens related collection, as well as some of their more general interest designs (think football, think llama love!)  And here’s your chance to win 1 t-shirt of your own, in any design you so choose.

And our second prize comes from our friends at Bear, who are always coming up with something new and exciting as far as seasonal, comfort dishes are concerned.  We totally heart their latest brunch and dinner menus with new bites such as a Hunter’s Stew, Veal Dumplings, the Grizzly Burger (it’s back) and a very special “Russian Nobility” vodka tasting that comes with a plethora of complementary bites and even a poem book!  Want to experience it yourself? Here’s a chance for you to win a brunch for 2 at Bear.

How to Enter:  Leave us a comment with a new idea for a Queens t-shirt and/or what you’re looking forward to trying at Bear for brunch.  You can enter between now and Thursday, December 20th.  A winner will be chosen at random and announced on Friday, December 21st.  Good luck everyone!

I can’t wait to try the Chicken Liver Mousse at BEAR. It’s such a rare find on restaurant menus and is soooooooooooo delicious!

I haven’t made it over to Bear yet but everything sounds so great, especially the Hunter’s Stew!

I’d pay cash money for a shirt that said, “Suck it, Brooklyn!” Or something to that effect.

T-shirt- I would love to see a Bohemian Hall tee with the old sign on it. I think they would sell like hotcakes.
And, SALMON FRITTATA!!! Sounds like heaven!

Wow! What an eclectic menu! Rabbit? I am impressed! I love all those savory frittatas and sandwiches! I would have one of those for sure!

I’ve been craving Bear’s bloody for weeks. Since Bear adds bacon and eggs to the bloody does that count as breakfast? I think so…

I need to make it out to Bear to try their Bloody Marys. I love them so much! I’ll probably order food too :)

A t-shirt that says “Where’s the train?” But the W is black with the yellow Metro circle around it, a shout out to the old W train. A fallen Queens comrade.

I think a nice shirt idea would be one that pays homage to both the history of and the current much loved vibe of Steinway street….in the same Steinway and Son’s font maybe something like “Steinway and Sultans” or “Steinway and Sunni”. As for the Bear question, while the whole brunch menu looks great, in the winter time it’s hard for me to turn down steak and eggs.

I would rock an “I <3 Astoria" shirt anytime. And I'd wear it while sipping one of those amazing Bloody Mary's at Bear!

I’m always interested in trying new dumplings, so Bear’s veal ones sound great. I’m not clever enough to come up with a T-shirt design, but I’d want to wear one designed by the creative people of Queens and show my neighborhood pride :)

now that the Q train goes all the way to Ditmars (on weekdays, at least), I’m surprised no one has made a shirt yet that says simply “Queens” with the Q in the yellow circle from the subway line symbols.

For a t-shirt: “Astoria: You’re not in Brooklyn anymore.”

Bear: Bloody Mary – need I say more?!?!?

Baked Potato & Aged Cheddar Frittata & the SHredded Beet Salad!!! Damn. Need. Now.

I’d love to see a map in the shape of queens with little blowouts for Astoria, LIC, Sunnyside, Woodside, Etc.

Brunch is the best, I would love to try the Salmon Frittata with a side of cheesy toast! It would taste even better wearing one of BQT’s clever t-shirts! :)

Scallop omelet!

Also, I have the Awesome in Astoria shirt and wear it all the time! I think I’d like some shirt having to do with all of the mixed cultures in Queens.

The Hunter’s stew sounds yummy…and the LIC T-shirt that looks like the Pepsi sign is a great idea :)
