A mix of hospital workers, students, the well-to-do and remnants of the area's immigrant past,
Yorkville is far more diverse than the howling hoots and hollers of its local meatheads would imply.

Despite all this, the Upper East Side is still fancy-pants burger territory—at least until a certain hour. After other restaurants have donned their wagyu nightcaps and snuffed their truffled candles, the funkier burgers around town let their hair down.

Unlike its Brooklyn smokehouse neighbors Fette Sau and Fatty 'Cue, which also tout responsibly sourced, high quality meat, Butcher Bar is designed to be a butcher shop first and a restaurant second.

In the last ten years New York has become the burger capital of America, and therefore the world. Thanks to the laser-like focus on burgers by New York's large and hugely competitive chef and restaurateur community, no other city offers the breadth and depth of the burger offerings found in Gotham.
But let us argue this point elsewhere. I only offer this bit of provocative burger punditry as a vehicle to extoll the virtues of a new discovery,

Black Market, the latest venture from nightlife impresarios Jesse Malin and Johnny T—owners of East Village bars Niagara, Cabin Down Below and The Bowery Electric—opened its doors this week. Don't be intimidated by the shuttered gates or the tales of...
