Web menu zen: Greenland's only Chinese
restaurant 07/27/2004 06:07 PM
What's that you say? You're wandering the ice-covered streets of Greenland, empty-stomached, looking for some decent Chinese takeout? Well, grab a bib and download this, baby: the online menu of the frozen land's only Chinese restaurant in Misigisaq, 100 miles north of the Arctic Circle. Quoth the owner, "We are adding new dishes all the time -- this week harbour porpoise cooked in a clay pot is the new special." Oh, but what to order:

# Love at first Sight: Caribou meat on little sticks
# Dried Fried Seal
# Tired Fisherman's Soup: a pick-me-up soup of whale meat and six traditional Chinese herbal medicines to reinvigorate you.
# Fragrant and Crispy Greenland sea bird (eider duck or Bruennichfs Guillemot, depending on the season)
# Numbing Spicy Musk Ox
# Clay Pot Walrus
# We are proud to serve not only a variety of Chinese teas, but also Kaffi Tunnulik (coffee and caribou fat).

Looks like they want to franchise, too. I'll have a venti, half-caf coffee and caribou lard, please -- hold the foam.

Misigisaq ApS is looking for partners interested in franchising our unique concept of Greenlandic ingredients and top quality Chinese cooking. We are able to support any such partnership with training, franchise documentation, and full logistic support. We believe there are many international sites with great potential for Misigisaq Restaurants. We can outline the prerequisites for a successful Misigisaq branch with any interested parties.

Link , and do not miss the "customer snapshot gallery" with pictures of tough tundra homeboys and this lovely local girl. (via egullet , thanks, Jonno)

Restaurant Week in NYC

Restaurant Week in NYC 02/01/2005 09:26 PM

New Yorkers, there's still lots of time to take advantage of Restaurant Week:

Enjoy special three-course, prix fixe menus at the city's best restaurants. The restaurants listed below offer $20.12 lunches and/or $35.00 dinners during Restaurant Week. Duration: Jan. 24 - 28 and Jan. 31 - Feb. 4, 2005; Excludes Saturday, Jan. 29 and Sunday, Jan. 30

I can personally vouch for lunch at 11 Madison Park (three full courses with five possible choices for each course and they gave me so much dessert) and have also dined favorably in the past at Artisanal, Blue Smoke, Craft, and Gramercy Tavern. The "lunch only" places are probably the best deals...$20.12 for so much good food, it feels like you're stealing from them.

Canadian Restaurant Adds Wi-Fi

Canadian Restaurant Adds Wi-Fi 02/10/2004 07:57 PM
Earls Restaurants is installing Wi-Fi with FatPort's help for both customers' and managers' use: It's definitely passed a trend and into routine that retail businesses find just as much utility and potentially more cost savings (versus actual net income) from having Wi-Fi hotspots in their locations. Most of the 50 restaurants already had DSL installed, and so that wasn't a separately tracked cost. Amusingly, it took quite a while for FatPort to install some locations because of the infrequent airline service....

The Benugo chain of deli's has opened a new branch on great Portland street in London - just north of Oxford Circus. They offer free wireless access for anybody spending £2 in their restaurant (£4 at lunchtime - and given the price of London sandwiches that is not difficult).

And the poster advertising this service encorporates the )( warchalk symbol. Just for the sake of cool I am sure.

How to order food in a restaurant

How to order food in a restaurant 06/05/2005 11:47 PM

When you're out to eat with friends and family, it can be challenging to decide what to order off the menu. There are often too many choices on the menu, everything sounds good, nothing sounds good, you're unfamiliar with a particular type of cuisine, you'd like have what that woman over there is having but you don't know what that is, etc. etc.

Luckily, a group of authors has recently released a series of pop science books focused on solving this particular problem. Here are some lessons on ordering food from those books:

Blink by Malcolm Gladwell
Glance quickly at the menu and order whatever catches your eye first. Spend no more than 2-3 seconds deciding or the quality of your choice (and your meal) will decline.

Freakonomics by Steven Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner
The key to ordering a good meal in a restaurant is understanding the economic incentives involved. Ask the server what they recommend and order something else...they are probably trying to get you to order something with a high profit margin or a dish that the restaurant needs to get rid of before the chicken goes bad or something. Never order the second least expensive bottle of wine; it's typically the one with the highest mark-up on the list (i.e. the worst deal).

The Paradox of Choice by Barry Schwartz
Take the menu and rip it into 4 or 5 pieces. Order from only one of the pieces, ignoring the choices on the rest of the menu. You will be happier with your meal.

The Wisdom of Crowds by James Surowiecki
Poll the other patrons at the restaurant about what they're having and order the most popular choices for yourself.

Everything Bad is Good for You by Steven Johnson
Order anything made with lots of butter, sugar, etc. Avoid salad or anything organic. A meal of all desserts may be appropriate. Or see if you can get the chef to make you a special dish like foie gras and bacon covered with butterscotch and hot fudge. Ideally, you will have brought a Super Sized McDonald's Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese Meal into the restaurant with you. Smoke and drink liberally.

Waiters Use Customer's Card While He's
Still In The Restaurant 06/11/2004 12:55 PM
There have been plenty of stories about waiters stealing credit card numbers with skimmer devices, but over in Shanghai, a pair of waiters couldn't even go through that much trouble. After picking up one diner's credit card, they immediately went next door and orde red $3,000 worth of mobile phones. This set off a bit of a well-placed alarm with the credit card company - who called him up to verify the purchase. The waiters were quickly arrested. The article has the understatement of the week: "The pair never intended to be waiters for long." No! Really?

And for the willing, there's one dish that would make most carnivores squirm: monkey meat. At Mama Ekila's Inzia restaurant, African bushmeat is flown in — and fried up — for discerning diners looking to put a bit of adventure on their plate.
