Spoon #30: Walker's

Miss Dish and I actually swapped Spoon #30 a few weeks ago, but in the hoopla of Super Storm Sandy I have not had a chance to post about it.  The swap took place here at Walker's in TriBeCa:


Miss Dish and I first stopped in about a month ago, and we were so impressed that we decided to come back for a swap.  Walker's is another classic New York bar.  Opening in 1987, it has a full twenty-five years of service under its belt.  I like these bars that don't rely on "oldest in New York" titles to earn their keep - somehow they feel a little more "authentic".

If you stop in, I really recommend the hamburgers.  For a long time I scoffed at people who would claim the best burger, thinking "how can you screw up a hamburger?!".  Well, perhaps I'm just a little more sophisticated now where I can say the people at Walker's definitely make a burger of distinction!

And of course, here we have Spoon #30:


Marked "Winco Stainless 18-0", Spoon #30 looks like it a Winco Regency, just like Spoon #7.
