McDonalds Menu Items From Asia

July 9, 2009 by gambypants

Did you know in a superior part of the world called A-ZEE-A, they’ve upgraded the McDonalds to suit the delicate Azn palate. True Story. Here’s a couple items Charlie would love to try at any part of the day, but preferably at 4Am.

Size is no prob for Charlie. The bigger the better. He could do without the ketchup though. It masks the meat juice flavor.

Cheese Katsu is a fried pork sandwich stuffed with cheese. Charlie doesn’t need the mayo. The BBQ sauce is enough. Maybe.

This can only be dreamt up after three Sparks and a sunrise. Charlie approves: Bacon potato pie. An apple pie but with mashed potatoes and bacon.

An Obama Deli Grows In Brooklyn!

July 9, 2009 by gambypants

Not Charlie Tu’s Brooklyn mind you. But he found on a slight detour to Clinton Hill that everyone and their fried chicken mamma is trying to capitalize on Hopey’s popularity. Charlie opted for a meal in his “own” neighborhood instead. No Change here for Chuckles.

RIP Sir Oscar Mayer

July 8, 2009 by gambypants

The Father of the most mysterious yet delicious food product in America, the hot dog, has passed on. Snarf! And so this weekend Charlie will commemorate our hot dog Führer by eating more than his wittle Azn tummy can take. And then some. Hide your BBQs!

Just an ordinary day

July 7, 2009 by gambypants

Same old. Same old. Charlie was hungry for dins and walking aimlessly in the West Village when he just happened to bump into his agent. Oh hai! She and her boyfriend invited him up to their place. They made fish tacos. Meal score. The End.

BACON is key

June 30, 2009 by gambypants

Some poor schmuck took Charlie Ga GA out for supper at Buttermilk Channel, a dining establishment in Carroll Gardens: LOCAL. ORGANIC. GREEN! Frank Bruni says it’s good, but Charlie isn’t so coy: the appetizers were a REVELATION. Bacon bar nuts. Delicious. BACON and nuts together as one! The entree was not so inspired: fried chicken, waffles and slaw. Meh. He smothered the entire dish in garlic aioli for flavor. He also thinks you’re better off spending your unemployment check on the KFC down the street–where they will service you immediately and won’t make you wait forever at the bar. Service fail.
