Champagne Tuesdays
at Superdive
200 Avenue A
(btwn 12th and 13th)
East Village
New York, NY 10009
646-448-4854

We’re going to throw something out there and see if it sticks.

Tuesday nights. Unlimited champagne. Sabered open for you. In a bathtub on wheels. By a midget dressed as a pirate.

Let’s just let that marinate for a minute.

Welcome to Champagne Tuesdays at Superdive, a new bastion of cultural elitism and intellectual camaraderie, debuting tomorrow in your favorite beer-scented pit of depravity in the East Village.

If ordering a keg to your table, doing a keg-stand on said keg, or generally gallivanting about in the Wild Wild West of dive bars just was too tame for you, here’s your chance to let your hair down a little more. Twenty bucks and an appetite for champagne and destruction gets you all the bubbly you can drink, and, yes, that champagne will be sabered and served to you by a little person named Nick wearing a pirate outfit.

At this point, you might be asking yourself why a tiny pirate wielding a tiny saber meant to chop the top off of a champagne bottle is manning a mobile bathtub full of bubbly bottles. And you also might be asking yourself why you would be purchasing champagne from this tiny Jack Sparrow.

Well, because it’s Tuesday.

The Double Belly

The Pork and Egg Bun

Why: Because it’s an excuse to consume a Momo pork bun in the morning. With a poached egg. That also happens to be deep-fried. And then placed delicately on top of hoisin- and scallion-slathered pork belly.

Momofuku Milk Bar, 207 2nd Ave (at 13th St), East Village

The Samurai

Breakfast Sushi

Why: Because eggs and cheddar cheese wrapped in maple bacon and sliced into bite size pieces of “sushi” are the kind of whimsical nuggets that you wish you had thought of.

Destination Bar, 211 Ave A (at 13th St), East Village, 212-388-9844

The French Toast Surprise

Ham and Cheese Stuffed French Toast

Why: In a temple to breakfast anytime, one dish stands out as the total package: savory ham and cheese, sweet French toast. Mix. Repeat.

Permanent Brunch, 95 First Ave (between 5th and 6th), East Village

The French French Toast

Foie Gras Brioche French Toast

Why: Because everything is better with foie gras. Or at least French toast is.

Norma’s, 118 W. 57th St (between 6th and 7th Ave), Midtown, 212-245-5000

The Pancake Explosion

The Tasty II

Why: Because sometimes you require the services of a plateful of Wonka-esque delights: six pancakes (two mac-and-cheese cakes, two s’mores cakes, two butterscotch cakes), piled high, awaiting your silent conquest.
