BOTM writes back

From one of the members:
Great to hear from you. I just checked out your site and love it! Your reviews of a number of places are actually very similar to ours. It's good to know that we're not the only guys folks this in NYC, I hope that we can share information and stories. I'm curious how the vegetarian works out :)

Take care and thanks again and let's keep in touch.

From the general mailbox at BOTM:
thanks for the e-mail. Great to hear there are others out there enjoying the same quest. Sounds like you guys are also having a lot of fun. The site looks great. Keep up the noble work, and let us know what you think about our Top 10.

If you guys have had certain burgers that you think we should try but haven't yet, please submit the suggestions on our website. We are committed to trying the most suggested burgers over the next year.

Happy Eating! BOTM

From one burger club to another...

Letter to BOTM:

Hi!
I saw an article in the NYT about BOTM and wanted to send you a friendly hello from one NYC burger club to another. I started a monthly burger shindig a couple of years ago as an excuse to see my friends on a regular basis. The Burger Series (http://diningseries.blogspot.com/) started out as an informal gathering of mostly women in their late 20s to mid-30s, but in the last year and a half, our guy friends have gotten into the monthly burger thing too. We even have a token vegetarian! :-) Our approach to the club (show up and invite whomever) and burger rankings (a show of thumbs after every meal) have been fairly egalitarian, but as the size and popularity of the group has grown, I've had to develop rules, limit members and change the way we discuss the burgers. It's been super fun, and I can't wait to try your group's top 10 with my group this summer.
Sincerely,
The Burger Series
