Weekly Reservation Transfer Thread
Please read the rules before commenting. Also, any type of "looking for a reservation" request is NOT ALLOWED.
- This thread is the only place on the subreddit for transferring restaurant reservations. If you make your own thread, it will be removed.
- You may transfer reservations for below or equal to face value (plus all taxes and fees) ONLY. You must clearly state both the price you paid and the price you're looking for in the post. Gouging will not be tolerated.
- You can only transfer reservations that are nonrefundable, ie, you cannot cancel them without forfeiting your money. If you have a refundable or free reservation and you can't make it, cancel it with the restaurant.
- The only reason we're allowing transfers is so people don't have to forfeit expensive pre-paid meals. If you want to buy a reservation, you are not one of these people. No posts asking to buy reservations.
- The mods of /r/FoodNYC accept no responsibility for these transactions. Tock and Resy both allow transfers on the website - if someone tells you otherwise it's a scam. Do your own research on your transaction before handing over any money to a third party. Check with the restaurant, check account ages, meet in person if feasible.

Anyone want a kegerator?
Previous tenants left it behind in our space at Main & St Paul Street, by City Hall Park. Seems to be fully-functional, 90Wx37Hx28D, standard 110v plug. Free to the first person to come get it.
DM for the exact location.
Fun little thing I noticed at the Smithsonian Exhibit- Julia Child cheated on her Rubik's Cube
For those of you that don't immediately see the problem:
The center pieces of a Rubik's Cube are locked and cannot move relative to one another. No matter how much you scramble it, the blue and green center pieces will always be opposite one another, yet on this cube they're adjacent. Furthermore, red/orange and yellow/white are also on opposite sides, meaning no one piece can have both of those colors. Yet we see the corner piece and the one below it with an impossible configuration.
The only way to achieve this is by peeling off and moving the stickers around, which is further evidenced by the one orange sticker being misaligned.
Coincidentally, I took up cubing right around the time that she donated her kitchen to the Smithsonian... so I can hang my hat on the fact that I'll spend my whole life never being able to cook as well as her, but I at least had her beat in that one thing.

Noticed a cool detail in the Prince episode (S3E14)
For those of you that don't know, Prince lived his entire life in and around Minneapolis, Minnesota. They don't mention the city or state at all in the episode, but someone still went to the trouble of getting a MN license plate for the car that almost ran over Jess and Cece in the cold open.

Week 29: Offal - "Dirty Risotto" with Fennel (Meta: Italy, Cheesy, Inspired by a Fairy-tale, Victorian)
Week 29 Introduction Thread: Offal
This week is all about offal, the garbage parts of the animal.
All sorts of cultures have had poor people that had to eat organ meats to survive, such as England's steak and kidney pie, Sichuan's fuqi feipian, or North Africa's bouzellouf.
If you, for some reason, don't want to eat animal organs, you can always go with a vegan version of a classic offal dish, or cook with a part of a vegetable that would normally be thrown away.
You could even make liver cake, but just don't leave it in the fridge for too long.
