Taste of Manhattan: Pop Burger

Kristen and I were in the city seeing the sights last week and really wanted a good burger for dinner. Kristen said she knew the perfect place, Pop Burger on 58th street close to the Apple Store and FAO Schwartz (where Tom Hanks danced on the keyboard in BIG).

The great thing about eating out in New York is all the crazy decorations and architecture in each of the buildings. Pop Burger is no exception, and when we walked in there was a great wall of all things burger shop related that was laser cut in metal alongside the wall. See the picture below:

It almost feels like a bar crossed with a burger shack, and they have themed music playing overhead that’s different everyday. That night the theme was ganster rap, because we heard anything from Notorious BIG to Sugar Hill.

We both ordered the slider burgers ($7!) and orders of fries and cokes. They do their burgers a little different though, like mini gourmet slider burgers.

It was a great meal as usual and afterwards we wandered down Central Park South past all the famous spots of Manhattan like The Plaza Hotel and Mickey Mantle’s.
