Eating my way through the upper east side...
This place will never make 'Restaurant of the week', but if you're ever in the mood for something cheap and a bit different, it's worth a look.Brother Jimmy's BBQ, 1485 2nd Avenue, between 77th and 78th.
Actually, it's a small chain (3 shops), with another restaurant on the upper east side and one in Grand Central Station. I could describe this place in one word - basic. They aren't trying to be, though. In fact, tonight was karaoke night. Thankfully, we finished before that started. For about $10 you can get a sandwich/burger/po' boy, which comes with a side (I had corn on the cob) and for 50 cents extra you can have a bit of 'slaw', i.e. cole slaw. All this, and the NBA playoffs on TV. Not bad...

If I had a dime for every time I was drunk at Brother Jimmy's in 1999 I'd have at least enough to ride the subway for the better part of a week. I'm pretty sure those plastic aligators are still floating aronud somewhere.
