Astoria is lovely

Yesterday I had seen in JoeyInAstoria that Bistro 33 was offering free beer and burgers in celebration of their 1st birthday. My friends and I were on to it like a fly to spilled honey. (I dunno) After work we walked over there and it was really pleasant. The beer was quality (Sam Adams Summer Ale) and the burgers were delicious. Thick and juicy with an assortment of pickles, lettuce, tomato, spicy mayo, peppers and onions with spicy sausage... They really outdid themselves for free. Everyone really enjoyed themselves and it felt like a real neighborhood community. The owner was out and about and loving life. I am really glad we went!
