West Village Original, Bill O’Donnell – great interview w/ the recently passed owner of the Corner Bistro and his history w/ it Now the only quandary is do I go with the Sundae or get another beer? Finally, there will also be milkshakes made with locally sourced ice cream and several dessert items including pie a la mode and ice cream sundaes. In addition steak frites, chicken marsala, and a portobello mushroom burger will be available, as well as some weekly specials. Those will include Bolognese sauce, Chili-Pasta, and Shepherds Pie – all of which will use the Corner Bistro’s legendary chopped meat. She told me that in addition to the traditional and current hamburger-centric offering, the LIC location would be adding items to make it more like a conventional bistro. So I spoke with Elizabeth McGrath, daughter of the owners of the original Corner Bistro on West 4th Street, Bill & Lorraine O’Donnell. Lo and behold what did I find – the classic joint had undergone a renovation.įurthermore signs announcing “Corner Bistro Reboot” indicated a revamped menu would commence on October 1. Then I passed the Corner Bistro, and like Wimpy I couldn’t resist popping my head in for a burger, as it’s always been a magnet for me time immemorial.
Unlike directly across the East River, nothing really newsworthy occurred in Long Island City this week and I was pretty much resigned to publishing a single post with a photo and links to others tepid news. “I’ll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today.” All this and the Stones in the background
