Superiority Burger is a restaurant in NYC right across the street from Thompson Square Park and the creative force behind the foodstuffs served there is Brooks Headly, who can feed you nutritiously but seems to thrive on super-charging your sweet tooth like really nobody's business. for NY, it's affordable, but you should go with a little extra money so that you may try everything on the menu. it's pretty fairly completely vegetarian and even heaps vegan. it's a big reality in a tiny universe.

Superiority Burger is the best restaurant in New York City. It has a passionate and punk spirit, and their flavors are unmatched. Something about the food and the ethos reminds me of the food I grew up eating in the Bay Area. Creative, seasonal, fresh as fuck… it’s very grounded and connected to the source but still playful. You can literally taste the magic! I’ve been going there so long and so often that I’ve become a known regular and am now friends with the iconic owner Brooks. I have been in spiritual pain while they’ve been on hiatus for the last few months preparing to re-open in the old Odessa diner space. When they finally open you will probably find me and Nancy there 5 days out of the week (if not 7…lol). See you there! P.S. Their cookbook also has the world’s best banana bread recipe- TRUST ME.

here are some of my NYC tops thus far (i am still looking for my favorite...)
-Ear Inn 7/10 (patty's got a good kick, i asked gary the owner if they add an excessive amount of black pepper as the secret, he didn't confirm. buns were dry last time though)
-Superiority Burger 8/10 (i have yet to try a whole one by myself bc friends always insist on SHARING but that won't happen next time)
-Raouls 6.5/10 (way too fucking messy for that price... felt feral... yet tasty)
Thai Diner 7/10 (i love going to asian restaurants just for american-style burgers)
-Burger Joint 6/10 (great spot for selfies in the hotel hallway before/after)
Shake Shack 8/10 (how can you not)
Corner Bistro 5/10 (it was fine)
-J.G. Melon 5/10 (overrated)
-White Mana in NJ 8/10 (maybe doesn't count)
i'm partial to smash style and prefer sandwiches with structure sans the bulky patty BS... people have also suggested burgs from Long Island Bar, Minetta, Bernie's, and Lexington Candy Shop (thank you/you're welcome)

get in the ocean where and when there are waves and improvise. your pains will go away, physical and existential. if the surf is high, wear fins.

if you've heard this compilation, you know and don't have to read any further. it gets the job done. it's an ultimate. you can't stop listening and don't have to. you shouldn't. every time you play any song here, a baby somewhere stops crying.

I don't know if she sings out in public much but if she does you should go and witness it. a remarkable lyricist and most of all someone who will join forces with you (the audience) to make you and her one in song, your identity becomes the song, shared with her. the recordings are strong but even looking for live performances on youtube are shed and holders above anything from a recording studio.it's like (and I'm not saying it is, just saying it's like) she can't wait to leave her body and leap up and out into musical existence.
