Lindy's on 4th Avenue

Lindy's on 4th Avenue (map)

Selected By: Rob

One year ago today, Adam of “Man vs. Food” took on Lindy’s eating challenge; he attempted to eat the O.M.F.G. Burger—a three-pound hamburger made up of 12 patties, 12 slices of cheese, and "all the fixings"—in less than twenty minutes. While only about one person in twenty successfully completes the challenge, anybody who can eat the O.M.F.G. burger in less than 20 minutes gets their burger for free. He was not able to complete the challenge and finish it in the allotted time, thus had to pay the bill. Eventually, after 44 minutes, Richman successfully devoured the entire O.M.F.G burger.

Let’s all get the TSB family together for lunch…anyone wish to try the challenge? I am considering it, but, no promises!

    This sounds like a fun meetup. I haven't been there yet, but did see the Man vs. Food episode. One question I have is: How is parking down there? I would be cool if we could all park right in front, but not sure that's a possibility.

    Yeah that's probably not going to be possible T. There should be plenty of parking but all parking together would be rough.

    Um Rob, what about a ride before hand? may be too stuffed for one after.

    hmmmm...suppose we could....it's the riding out of there I am worried about if I decide to try the challenge....could be pricey though if I don't finish...riding the bike afterwards could be challenging....lol

    not sure of the price to be honest but probably over $20 if not more; but if someone is eating what you don't finish (yuck) then you could share...lmao.....no parking anywhere either...that will suck...park where you can!!! I think I can do it Tyne...but again....the ride afterward would not happen...throwing up in my helmet can't be good for anyone....lmao.

    It shouldn't be too bad down there that time of day. It's nights that get so packed.

    yes, she wanted to share it equally at first, but when the time came she only tried it once and said she couldn't handle the rest.

    Great hamburger and the prices weren't too bad, just trying to decide if they are better than Zen Burger. Took a nice little ride afterwards up the Mt. It was a great day!
