For all you poor souls who are destined to spend your days confined to mid-town, salvation (or salivation as we refer to it here at cakehead) has arrived in the form of a new food blog. Midtown Lunch provides the service of helping hard working men and women to find "lunch in the food wastland that is NYC's midtown."

Their recent posting about Hallo Berlin is a little off the mark - not because the food there is bad. We love the German hall for its cheap wurst platters and beer-filled lunches. But it's so far west that if you cringe you might catch a glimpse of the Mississippi. There's nothing "mid" about it. The sole limit of the site is that the host only posts about restaurants within walking distance from 49th & 6th where he works. So certain midtowners will have a long walk ahead of them if they want to try the suggestions. But the benefits far outweigh any complaints we have. We love a host who likes it cheap and dirty:

I'm not scared of carts, or dirty joints, so hit me with your best shot (minus the Sbarro pizza buffet & Hooters- although their chicken wings are not without merit).

We agree with the restaurant recommendations so far. We love any site that mentions Daisy May's BBQ USA. And the blog offers a helpful feature - a listing of restaurants sorted by street & cross street. So if you know you need to meet someone on 46th St between 6th & 7th Ave, you can click on that link and receive a dining rendez-vous spot. Keep in mind that the site is still in its infancy so there are not a lot of dining options listed yet. But we're confident that if readers have a little patience and contribute their favorite midtown dining recommendations, in no time there will be a long listing of suggestions to satiate that deep hunger that manifests itself in the midtown worker.
