Must-Eat Food Pop-Ups & Drops in NYC 3.9-3.16
March has been full of rain already but water isn’t the only thing dropping here in NYC. This month is so condensed with dish drops they’re practically falling from the sky! The clock is ticking on these limited special creations so it’s time to channel your inner culinary athlete and eat for sport. The love child of two iconic New York dishes, the latest fried chicken sandwich sensation, an Italian pastry hybrid, the meatiest burger known to man and your morning coffee’s perfect dipping partner are this week’s Must-Eats.

Spicy Boy Pepp Egg & Cheese
Greenberg’s Bagels // 3.9
From the West Village to Bed-Stuy, every New Yorker loves two things: pepperoni pizza and a baconeggncheese. So logically, we teamed up with Ace’s Pizza and Greenberg’s Bagels to compress both iconic dishes into one legendary bagel sandwich for one day only. On a sesame bagel, two fried eggs are topped with seared mozzarella, pepperoni, Calabrian chili ketchup, Mike’s Hot Honey and ranch. Find all the info in the 🧨 Drops category on the 8it app.

While everyone else is still hung up on the Popeyes vs. Chick Fil-A debate, slide on down to Essex Street where you can find the real champion of chicken sandwiches without all the fuss. Gotham Burger Social Club is running a pickle-brined chicken sandwich with American cheese, shredded lettuce, dill pickle chips and your choice of sauce on Mondays and Tuesdays only. Go with their Empire Sauce made with Salamida Spiedie Sauce or Ghost Pepper Ranch if you’re feeling brave and adventurous. Find all the info in the 🧨 Drops category on the 8it app.

Settepani is making sure that every storm has its rainbow this month with their latest a drop, the rainbow cookie croissant. It’s filled with marzipan dough and raspberry jam, then coated in chocolate and topped with a rainbow cookie to complete the double rainbow. It’s available at all Settepani locations for the month of March. Find all the info in the 🧨 Drops category on the 8it app.

Daily Provisions just dropped your morning beverage’s perfect companion and it’s begging you to dip in into a warm coffee or tea. The Chai Cruller is coated in chai spices then dipped in a tea-infused glaze and topped with crystallized ginger for a little extra zing. It’s about time someone came up with a caffeinated doughnut so we can tell ourselves it’s not a treat, just fuel. Find all the info in the 🧨 Drops category on the 8it app.
The Blarney Burger
5 Napkin Burger // Available all March

They say if you kiss the Blarney Stone at Blarney Castle outside of Cork, Ireland, you’re awarded with great eloquence. Perhaps the same could be said for 5 Napkin Burger’s March drop, The Blarney Burger, when it invariably shakes your hangover off. This cheddar cheese smash burger not only gives a nod to Irish legend, but also Irish cuisine with beer-braised corned beef, stout mustard, and cabbage slaw. Find all the info in the 🧨 Drops category on the 8it app.
