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.
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!
Shirt Idea: the image of the Hell Gate Bridge that wraps around the entire shirt.
T-shirt idea: Astoian Nights… A whole new world for you.
The Bear Eggs Benedict! The addition of pork loin sounds delicious!
I haven’t made it over to Bear yet but everything sounds so great, especially the Hunter’s Stew!
That photo has me craving eggs benedict!
I’d pay cash money for a shirt that said, “Suck it, Brooklyn!” Or something to that effect.
I’m a sucker for eggs benedict.
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!
How about we have a t-shirt with a bear wearing a fabulous dress and crown?
‘Queens…do it in Astoria!’ and I would wear my new T to Bear for their brunch blood mary’s!
t-shirt- love to see a Boheimian Hall tee. I think they would sell like hotcakes.
and… SALMON FRITTATAS!!!!
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’m excited to see that Bear has a tofu dish on their brunch menu!
I love veal and I love dumplings. Veal dumplings is a must try!
I’d like to try the hunter’s stew. What a great giveaway – Merry Christmas.
The mushroom frittata from Bear sounds delicious!
Diver Sea Scallop Omelet- Pan seared scallops baked into a sunny-side 3-egg omelet!!!
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.
How about Queens with the Q and N as the subway letters? Bear’s brunch looks great!
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 :)
Tshirt: “Steinway: the Fifth Avenue of Astoria”
For brunch: Can’t wait to try the bloody mary!
Oh, I can’t wait to see more cool Tshirts from BQT! Some ideas: Queens map, water tower, I heart Astoria, 7 train, Q train…
Omg, the picture above makes my mouth water. Bear is one of my fav places. I almost ALWAYS recommend it to others.
Love to create ny own Astoria shirt, born and raised PROUD asotrian! And the food from bear is ALWAYS on point, would be the perfect bonus.
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.
The salmon frittata sounds fantastic!
The Salmon Frittata sounds amazing!! Can’t wait to try it!
For a t-shirt: “Astoria: You’re not in Brooklyn anymore.”
Bear: Bloody Mary – need I say more?!?!?
I want to try the Savory Cheese Toast — and a bloody mary!
Is it weird I want to try the barrel-cured sauerkraut at Bear?
Astoria shirt! <3
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! :)
T-shirt: the floating Buddha in front of Manhattan skyline as seen from Socrates Sculpture Park, rendered in a charcoal sketch.
I want to try Bear’s Jumbo Bloody Mary!
i saw a pic of the bloody mary’s at bear…look like a meal in a glass, definitely on my list of things to try!!
I eat eggs benedict everywhere I go. I’d eat eggs benedict every day if I could.
Haven’t tried Bear yet, but am dying to!
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.
Cheesey Savory Toast and a Bloody Mary sounds amazing to me!
I’m looking forward to trying Bear’s whole menu! I love that they have such hearty and savory dishes for brunch.
The Hunter’s stew sounds yummy…and the LIC T-shirt that looks like the Pepsi sign is a great idea :)
Hmm. I do want to try Bear! And for a shirt… maybe Astoria: It’s great! Really!
Can’t wait to try brunch at Bear!
I’m looking forward to trying what’s in the picture! That looks delicious and the tomatoes are so red!
