If you follow my posts, you know food is one of my favorite things to write about. In fact, it is my favorite thing! Because, well I love the research of trying new things or discovering that great restaurant I just HAVE to try! And I am on an endless quest to track down the best burger joints.

24/7 Tempo has helped that quest by naming their best hole-in-the-wall burger joint in every state in the nation. What is their criteria? 24/7 Temp says the definition of a great burger joint is "...modest quarters usually with minimal decoration...with personality and has grown into a local institution as well as just a place for food."

Now the really cool thing about the honoree for New York is it has been known to be a big burger destination for celebrities and foodies like James Gandolfini, Andy Cohen, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Anthony Bourdain, and more!

New York City's Corner Bistro Named States Best Burger Joint

On that next trip you take to New York City, you have to add a stop at Corner Bistro in Greenwich Village for a burger and a beer to your itinerary. It is a New York City legend when it comes to massive burgers, and ya never know who you may run into. If you peruse the photos and posts on their Facebook page, you will see stories of visits from many famous faces!

24/7 Tempo named the bistro New York's best burger joint and this is why:

Corner Bistro claims to be “the last of the bohemian bars in West Greenwich Village,” and has kept its original charm from days long past. Today, the bistro serves up massive burgers, sandwiches and all the good sides. This is the sort of place that’s all about a massive chunk of quality beef topped high with ingredients.

So before that stop to see the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree this year, head downtown first to Corner Bistro!
