We Heart Astoria Food Talk *Rich Foods*

Even though it’s summer, we never miss an opportunity to indulge in rich, comforting foods.  We figure, why not have a little something extra special when you can walk or run it off quickly?

How about these ginormous M&M brownies, now available at Sweetie’s Yummery? 45-11 28th Avenue, Astoria.

I’ve recently had the chance to try a new type of spaetzle at The Barn.  You won’t see them on their regular menu, so make sure to ask for the secret “Slovak/Czech” menu and order the halushky s bryndzou. 30-09 21st Street, Astoria. 718.728.0305

We’re loving the recent kudos for Pye Boat Noodle in the Wall Street Journal.  No small potatoes here – nicely done! 35-13 Broadway, Astoria. 718.685.2329

Did you hear that the soft opening of Astoria Coffee launches this coming Monday, August 18th at 7 a.m.? In addition to that, there will be tons of fun sneak preview opportunities leading up to the official opening, so make sure you walk by this weekend to see what’s going on.  30-04 30th Street, Astoria. 

Have you entered the awesome BareBurger sponsored giveaway to receive one of four $50 gift cards? That’s a lot of burgers, onion rings, fries and shakes.  Oh my!
