BURGER CONQUEST TO HOST 3RD ANNUAL NY BURGER WEEK 
MAY 1-7, 2014

To celebrate National Hamburger Month, Burger Conquest, Burger Maker & The Food Film Festival proudly bring you the 3rd Annual NY Burger Week, May 1-7, 2014.

The Burger Week is a 7-day celebration of trendsetting chefs and unique burgers with a series of daily events.

Burger Conquest announces the 3rd annual NY Burger Week from May 1-7, 2014. Offering gourmet blends, off-menu specialities, drink pairings – and the return of the Burger Crawl! – 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_The_Burger_Week_NYC_2014_Black_Shack_Eastern_Meets_Western_Event_Layered_FinalThe Burger Week in New York kicks off May 1 at Black Shack (320 Lexington Ave) with a unique burger collaboration. Chef Jeffrey Maslanka brings off-menu burgers to the Burger Week, this time with Ramen Burger creator Keizo Shimamoto. Chef Jeff was the creative force behind the 2013 NY Burger Week off-menu Burger brunch at 67 Burger. For 2014, he and Shimamoto will work together to re-imagine each other’s Burger. Keizo has re-designed Jeff’s Western Burger – and it will be served along with Jeff’s take on the Ramen Burger. The dinner, limited to only 40 seats, will also feature a Black Shack off-menu Asian-themed side and a beer milk shake.

The album, originally released in 1980, has gone on to become the 4th highest selling album of all time. On the anniversary of its recording in New York at Electric Lady Studios, attendees will enjoy a selection of off-menu mini-burgers created by Chef Dennis Hatzinger using Burger Maker’s Custom Blend Certified Angus Beef Burgers, each themed with a different song on the album. Burgers will be served with a series of craft beers from Bell’s Brewery, Two Brothers, 21st Amendment and Singlecut Beersmiths.
