t STANDs for toasted marshmallow milkshake!

STAND
24 E. 12th Street
www.standburger.com

Had a crabby pattie and toasted marshmallow milkshake today. Who knew you could capture the charcoaled, burnt goodness of a toasted marshmallow in a frozen dairy mush? I sure didn't!

$5 for a small $7 for a regular. Get the regular, or else you'll end up with 2 smalls! The crabby pattie was crabby. In a good way.

Either way, so awesome, but a tad too pricey for me to be a regular :/

Some days I really remember why I love this city so much

FreshFun Smoothie at the NYC Street Fair
$4-5 Dollars for a 16 oz. bubble tea or smoothie. Worth it if you really need your fix!
They use mostly fresh fruit and have a very large selection (including lychee, papaya, kiwi, mango, & pineapple)
I got a pineapple and lychee (spelled 'litchee on the menu haha) smoothie with bubbles. The texture wasn't my favorite (I'm not really used to fresh fruit smoothies haha!) but the taste was on point. Ask to get bubbles in your smoothie, twice the fun!

They have been serving at NYC Street Fairs since 2000, so I don't doubt that they'll be there every weekend. Click here for the street fair schedule.
