EAT, DRINK, AND SHARING

Everyone loves a good happy hour, and we have come up with one more reason for you to grab drinks with your friends after work. Introducing Thirsty Thursdays: 4food's weekly Thursday night party featuring music by DJ Tim, $3 beers and sangrias, and $5 chef created (W)holeburgers. Oh, and your rocking good time benefits local NYC charities.

This Thursday, a portion of the party proceeds will be given to New York Cares. Volunteers from the organization will be on hand to collect those gently used coats taking up way too much space in your closet. Every week in December Thirsty Thursday will spotlight a different organization. Check out the 4food events calendar (http://4food.com/eventscalendar/) and start assembling your co-workers.

ON THE CHART/CHARTBEAT: BLING, PILGRIMS, AND ALEXC X2

The Buildboard Chart is ringing and jingling its way through the first week of December starting at #10 with newcomer GRABINOWITZ’S “avicado with a little zip” Cado Bling sensation of Multigrain-Turkey-Avocado & Chili Mango-Avocado-Cheddar-Lettuce-Tartar Sauce. Falling into a tie at #9 AMICHAELS’S THE COWBOY WAY gets bucked from the top alongside AHARRIS’S (platinum) setting CaliBurger. Landing its way back on to the chart south of Plymouth is MICHSY’S November to remember Pilgrim Burger at #7. JFAVUZZA’S Better Turkey Burger gobble gobbles its golden way to #6, while DOCKERYFARMS’S The Jerk Burger projects its personality as it slips its way to #5. Hanging within the national polls is RHA70’S Michigan Wolverine Burger at #4, while ANGELA1126 can do no wrong as Jake’s Mac & Cheese pancetta burger climbs to #3. ALEXC’S confident “order today so you can say you knew this future Buildboard chart topper before it was famous!” The Manchego Avocado tangos its way from last week’s brink to this week’s crest at #2, while ALEXC’S “all business, all delicious” Midtown Cheddar Bacon is all day strong all week long holding down the top spot again this week at #1.
