I have trouble sometimes recognizing my face in the mirror so I can't confirm or deny it but the rumor is out there...
"Did you hear that Frances McDormand and the Joel Coen were in Schnack on Saturday."
"Breaking news! Just got word from a friend Frances McDormand apparently
yelled out of their car, "the burgers are great!"
Whoever they were, we hope that they enjoyed themselves; the same wish we have for every customer. We figure there is no way we can actually take over the world unless people like the tiny burgers!

It's been a few months in the making. Tonight, if the tea leaves we call TV Guide, are correct the episode of Cookin' In Brooklyn called Opening Night will air. It's the story of Schnack!

In like a lion and out with a party. March seems to have been Party Central at Schnack, so we wanted to thank everyone who has had a party at Schnack in the last few weeks.
Thinking of having a party? Ideally, for any group between 8 and 25 people we have great deals starting at 20.00 per person for 2 hours (all you can eat and drink!). It's more expensive but you can also close down Schnack for a totally private party up to 75 people.

You might think it's a bit late to be talking about New Years... BUT with Spring almost in the air it let's think back to those nice cold windy days of winter..

A nice write-up on us in NY Newsday Bargain Bites... but they did get the dog wrong. We use Stahl-Meyer. "Schnack. Don't, for heaven's sake, call it junk food. Those hot dogs come from Niman Ranch, after all. And what could be more sublime than the mini-burgers capped with cheese? If you're looking for something more substantial, there are fish-and-chips, and main courses like roast pork. (122 Union Street; 718-855-2879)"

When Time OUT NY predicted that Manhattan was the NEXT Brooklyn that really set the tone for those of us who really feel Brooklyn isn't some part of NYC that, "you don't go to" but rather, for many of us, the most interesting part of NYC. Where we live, work, play and hmmm Eat!
For those in the know, Brooklyn has been part of NYC since the boroughs came together in 1898. So it's no surprise that when Brooklyn "City Hall" put together a "dining" program, the price per meal has been set to $18.98; Now that's a great price to pay for a 3-course meal, except of course if your at Schnack where well, that doesn't just buy a meal, it buys a feast!
So keeping with our "Schnack" tradition of putting our own spin on things, the $18.98 special at Schnack will be a meal for TWO; it will include everything from Beer to Coffee.
It isn't final but what we are considering is:
2 Med Schwags or 2 Cokes
6 Singles with Cheese
Onion Rings (the best in NYC!)
Small Fries
Warm Banana Choc. Bread Pudding or a Schnack style Brownie
Tea or Coffee for two
Let us know what you think!

Steve Bodow, Mary Purdy and Curtis Fox about new liberal radio
networks--it gave me the chance to channel Rush Limbaugh, which was
great fun. You can listen to the episode here:

Spring is in the air and we are finally, again, getting walkers rather then just drivers coming to Schnack. It's not so rare these days to talk to a table and find out they walked 10 or 20 blocks or more to get to Schnack!
We are planning some St. Paddy's Day fare, but nothing special in the brew department since our prices allow you to celebrate any day!
