From gourmet blends to off-menu specialities, to beer pairings, NY Burger Week will pay tribute to the world’s greatest sandwich, the Hamburger. Each restaurateur and Chef will be preparing a unique event that pays tribute to the Burger in their own way.

NY Burger Week kicks off on the evening of May 1 at Idle Hands Bar with That Burger in the East Village. The menu will feature Burgers and beers “expertly paired” by NY Burger Week founder, Rev Ciancio, with each track on Guns N Roses debut album Appetite for Destruction. Attendees will enjoy craft beers from Ballast Point, Green Flash & Stone Brewing Companies as well as a selection of off-menu mini-Burgers & Tater Tots along with a special dipping sauce from the mind of Dan Petersen, the creator and Chef for That Burger . The Food and drink menu will be paired with a corresponding track from the rock album that set the world on fire. More details and tickets are available here: http://bit.ly/GNRNYBW
