7-Eleven Birthday Donut

Brody, Rusty and I were waiting for the bus in front of 7-Eleven and I noticed they had a deal on Birthday Donuts (3 for $2). They look like sprinkled donuts. I’m not sure why they are called Birthday Donuts. Seems like they’re limiting their market to just birthdays, when they could be an Everyday Fun Donut.

I took a photo through the window and an employee came out and asked me if there was a problem. Nah, I’m just taking a photo of the donut. It was like I was a terrorist taking photos of a nuclear plant.

I came back the next day to get one for Jody’s birthday. I guess they were right in naming it a Birthday Donut, since I ended up buying one. Sorry for posting these photos, Jody.

And then this happened. Sorry, Jody.

Jamaican Me Hungry Sandwich

A few nights ago, I was at my local corner deli, Golden Star Corner. We were talking about taking a photo of their great new True Grit sandwich (roast beef, honey turkey, turkey bacon, lettuce/tomato, cheese on a hero) for them to hang up. I had been drinking and I was trying to impress a girl that was ordering a sandwich. I told her to get one with a Jamaican beef patty in it. That sparked the idea behind the Jamaican Me Hungry.

Jamaican Me Hungry (beef patty, cheese, ham, peppers, onions, mayo and hot sauce) …dang. My dreams have become a reality. I can only imagine all the kids from Legion ordering one after a wild late night.

I hope you enjoy them.

God Bless Deli’s Chicken over Rice Platter

Stopped into the 24-hour God Bless Deli in Greenpoint one late night. I ordered the “Special” Chicken over Rice Platter $5.99 w/ a free can of soda. It’s the heaviest carton of street-meat style food I’ve ever held. White sauce, hot sauce. It was solid. If anyone ever wanted street-meat food late night in Greenpoint, God Bless Deli.
