Description
Welcome to "Chef's Day Off," Eater's brand-new series where we follow a rotating cast of chef friends on their rare day off, exploring the coffee shops, diners, markets, and restaurants that truly inspire them. In the first episode, "Burger Scholar" and Hamburger America founder George Motz takes a break from the grill to show us his favorite NYC meals that aren't burgers. We start with his morning ritual in the Village, travel to Red Hook for a massive Italian hero, and end the night with hearty Austrian comfort food in Ditmas Park. From the "greatest sandwich in the world" at the legendary Defonte's to world-class schnitzel at Werkstatt, this is George Motz's ultimate NYC food tour.
