Only today, burgers and fries at 1962 prices!

Wednesday, February 22nd, 2012

Alert!  We at Diners.org has just been told that Big Nick’s NYC on the Upper West Side is celebrating their 50th Anniversary by adjusting their menu prices to what it was in the 1962.

Need a comparison?  A quarter-pound burger right now in 2012 would cost you more than $6 but from noon to midnight on Wednesday February 22, it will only cost you $0.60!  That’s 60 cents!

Enter the Year of the Dragon!

Monday, February 6th, 2012

Happy Chinese New Years!  This time we are welcoming in the year of the Dragon (for you 2012 conspiracy theorists out there, take that as you will) and with that comes a new gallery of photos.  Last time for the year of the Tiger we showed what one of our staff member’s families prepare for the occasion and this year we return for more.

This year has a bigger focus on pastries but much of the menu stays the same.  We hope all of you enjoy the photos.  Happy Year of the Dragon!
