Everyone loves a little down home Queens Comfort in their life, and judging by the steady lines that appear in front of this place each weekend, they must be doing something right. I recently caught wind of the fact that their 3rd year anniversary is coming, which in some ways seems long overdue. It sounds gluttonously delicious and I thought to spread the word with you.
Queens Comfort - 3rd Year Anniversary Party
Sunday, March 30th
10:00 a.m. - 4 p.m.
Enjoy lots of delicious, fried, baked and smoked foods, old school beats and various shenanigans.

I don't know about you guys, but it's been a little while since I've been to Studio Square Beer Garden. I'm looking forward to those warm summer nights when I can camp out with a tall glass of beer and some good food and friends.
While we've been hibernating inside this winter and what some call spring, Studio Square has been busy planning away some new, fun events to get you in the door. Here's one that's coming up in the near future that made me feel nostalgic. It's a School's Out for the Summer Teacher party, which honors our educators on the last day of public school this year, which is June 26th. Do you remember that glorious day when you knew all your school work was done and you were free for the next two months? I do...and so does Studio Square apparently. Here's what they're planning:
Teacher Appreciation Party
Wednesday, 6/26 from 3 p.m. - 7 p.m.
Includes 4 hours of open bar (beer, wine & sangria)
Attendees will also get a grill voucher for a full meal from Studio Square's Garden Grill (yum!)
You can buy your tickets here, which are $35/person. Celebrate the dog days of summer!

With Cinco de Mayo fast approaching, and this year it being on a Saturday, everyone is surely looking for ways to celebrate. There's going to be a lot of awesomeness in the nabe focused around this joyous holiday, and I was happy to see that Studio Square is going to be hosting a big shin-dig, in their customary fashion. Here are the deets, and I hope you make it out that day!
Studio Square Cinco de Mayo Celebration - starts at noon
Featuring:
A bonnet/sombrero contest (get creative Astorians!)
Mint julep and margarita specials all day
Door prizes & giveaways
A live DJ all day and night
Let's hope the weather cooperates, as this could be a great venue to spend the entire day at. Just bring a bunch of friends, some portable drinking games and let the fiesta begin.Studio Square - 35-33 36th Street, Astoria NY 11106718.383.1001N/Q Train to 36th Avenue or R/M Train to Steinway Streetstudiosquarenyc.com
I know, I know...I just wrote about these guys yesterday but I can't help the fact that Bear's delicious grub is on my mind. Recently asking their chef, Natasha about their seasonal menu, she revealed they're working on a soon-to-be-outed spring menu.
Well the time is here, the spring menu is ready and Bear is down to celebrate. Join them this Friday for a Spring Menu Release Partay, where you'll get a taste of their new spring eats. Here are the vitals:
Friday, March 2nd from 6:30 p.m. - 11:00 p.m.
They'll also feature some fun deals on select dishes, so make sure you come hungry, and bring plenty of friends. Can't wait to welcome spring in this awesome way. Just don't forget to make a reservation. Click here to reserve a spot right from their website.
