BARK made me BARF

Ridiculously overpriced. $7 for a veggie dog. Healthy Nibbles down the street has veggie dogs for $2.50. Bark is one big joke. I mean, if you like going there, I'm glad you enjoy it. I, myself, am never going back.

Wow - way to be pretentious and judgemental. Now it's my turn. Ahem......there are SOME people who think that food is only good if you overpay for it and believe that if the food is cheap, well then it MUST be bad.
read this. it's more the toppings that make the place gourmet more than the dogs themselves.
i'm not going to try to convince anyone here of anything.
if you want to compare bark to a street vendor or gray's papaya, we aren't going to agree. it's apples and oranges. there are some people who value good food and others who don't, plain and simple. not a judgment, just a fact of life. -
By the same token Andy, who gets so worked up over a hot dog.

Stopped by the other day on my way back from Target, had the Classic NYC $5 dog. I thought it was really good and the place comfy enough to sit down, relax and check email, etc. while munching on your dog. I wish they had old-style bottled coke or ginger ale, though. Didn't like their soda selection. Not planning on being a regular, but that's because I eat hot dogs very infrequently.

If, in case, you are referring to me in that statement...I am not actually worked up over a hot dog. I'm worked up over a person who used the argument: If you don't like it, you taste is not refined enough to appreciate good food which is what that poster did when he said "there are some people who value good food and others who don't". A jackass like that annoys as much as people on the sidewalk who won't move their strollers.

funny, cause people with strollers don't annoy me at all.
i walk around them.
how's it going andy from healthy nibbles...? -
I'm still having a tough time believing that posting about something is evidence of being "worked up" over something.
...I have 4000+ posts to the contrary. -
bark was named in the latest new york magazine as one of the "reasons to love new york"

• At Bark Hot Dogs, chef-owners Joshua Sharkey and Brandon Gillis get their dogs from an Austrian sausage-maker upstate, and baste them in housemade smoked lard butter. The sauerkraut is aged in oak barrels, and the beans are of the heirloom variety.

Ate there last night again and the dogs were on point. Highly recommend the Slaw Dog, the crisp slaw meshes well with the smoky, snappy dog. Place was also pretty busy at 8am on a Tuesday which is a good sign for them.
Howdy, Stranger!
