Changing of the Guard

Howdy Amigos,
The more things change, the more they stay the same. This is a timeless saying and holds true for us more now than ever before. A year ago, Alex & I started Frites'N'Meats with the desire to bring some of the best Burgers & Frites to the streets of NYC. Over this past year, this has been our singular pursuit. From the beginning we were very fortunate to find a couple of guys, Al & Moody, who shared this goal with us and were instrumental to realizing this vision. In fact, in many ways, they were probably more instrumental to this than we were. After all they are the guys on the truck every day making the Burger & Frites, the Sassy Sauces, the ones talking to you and making sure that not only are the Burgers & Frites top notch but that your overall experience is top notch as well. We saw their passion for the business and their desire, and now we all decided it was time to turn Frites'N'Meats over to them. We will still continue to advise and, where needed, guide them, but the baby we saw through its infancy is now theirs to grow into adulthood. We are certain that they are the best stewards we could havee found for our child and are confident that they will do us all proud.

Our Schedule this Week is the same:
Monday - 46th St between 5th & 6th Ave (Midtown West)
Tuesday - 52nd St & Park Ave (Midtown East)
Wednesday - Water St & Broad St (FiDi)
Thursday - Park Ave between 27th & 28th St
Friday - Water St & Broad St (FiDi)
Dinner - Mon, Tues, Thurs & Fri - 14th St between 3rd & 4th Ave (front of Trader Joes)
Dinner - Wed - 3rd Ave & 31st St (Murray Hill)

The Burger of the Week is The El Cubano
Seasoned Grassfed Angus Patty,
Rosemary Ham & Gruyere Cheese,
Pickles & Sassy Sauce

We thank you for a wonderful first year and know you will continue to support Al & Moody as they take Frites'N'Meats to the next level.

With much Burger Love,
Vadim & Alex
