Another Wagyu burger joint is making its debut in Manhattan this week
Another New York day, another Wagyu burger. Just last week, we notified you that Manhattan welcomed a Wagyu-only burger joint: NADC Burger. Now, yet another (award-winning!) Wagyu burger has entered the villa, traveling all the way in from Westchester. Fresh off their soft opening this weekend, Deux Luxe (384 Broome Street) is officially open as of today. The burger concept comes from sisters Charlotte and Carrie Denoyer—second-generation NYC restaurateurs, the siblings also run Café Deux, an all-day cafe in Harrison, New York. While known for its French American classics, the cafe gained some local notoriety with its Wagyu burger. Earning the esteemed title of "Best Wagyu Burger in Westchester" last year from Westchester Magazin e, the mag nodded to its '75/25 ratio of lean-to-fat meat' and its 'double dose of sunlight-hued tangy cheddar and creamy aioli.' Now, the sisters decided to bring their prized cow down south, hoping to capture the hearts and stomachs of Manhattan. Behind the grill is executive chef Alex Aparicio (formerly of Dovetail and Avante Garden), who cooks up a menu of classics, including burgers, sandwiches and fries. If you'd rather keep it simple, try the Classic with a Wagyu beef base, topped with cheddar cheese and garlic aioli on a soft bun. But if that isn't enough to arrest your appetite, the Big Deux certainly will. With double the patties and three sesame buns, this jumbo sandwich is stacked high with cheddar cheese, pickles, lettuce and a signature Deux Luxe special sauce. Taking a spin on the classics, the kitchen is also whipping up limited-edition burgers, from a butter chicken and kimchi variety to the French Onion Burger. And if you somehow arrived at this burger spot but aren't feeling beef, you can swap out your patty with crispy chicken or a portobello mushroom. Deux Luxe also offers gluten-free buns, vegan options and dairy-free alternatives so that all can chow down. While to-go is readily available thanks to the takeout counter, the restaurant's diner-like interior is a cozy find. Inside, you'll find a dark green color palette, a few barstools for the taking and large French windows that open up to the street. Among the varsity-style banners and affirmations hung on the wall, the restaurant houses an old-school sticker ATM. Inside, you'll find drawings from Katarina Mejean, ripe for the collecting.

Soho's latest burger joint only has Wagyu burgers on the menu
When I think of chef Phillip Frankland Lee, his Michelin-starred tasting menus come to mind, be it sushi in a speakeasy setting at Sushi by Scratch or multi-course, scratch-made pastas at Pasta Bar. But for the past few years, chef Lee has been dipping his toes in the fast-casual realm, jumping on the smashburger trend. But for Lee, his joint has only one burger on the menu, and one burger only—and that burger is Wagyu. And as of today, New York has 'em too. Today, NADC Burger is making its debut in Soho. The eatery, which stands for 'Not a Damn Chance,' comes from a seemingly unlikely duo, as chef Lee teamed up with professional skateboarder Neen Williams. The longtime friends who bonded over skateboarding and eventually cooking, the duo first brought the concept to Austin back in 2022. Now, the mini burger chain has locations in Chicago, Denver and Fort Worth, Texas, with the latest to land right here in NYC. 'What started as two friends chasing the ideal burger has grown into something bigger, and bringing it to New York, a city with so much devotion to food, feels unreal. We can't wait for New York to taste what we've built,' said Neen Williams, co-founder of NADC Burger, in a press release. Only two burgers exist on the menu here: the NADC Burger and a kid's version. The signature smash uses two Wagyu patties with onions pressed right in, layered with American cheese, a swirl of house-made sauce, plus pickles and jalapeños on a toasted potato roll. The kid's version still gets the Wagyu treatment, featuring a singular patty topped with cheese. The only add-on here is the fries, which are fried in beef tallow. Order them plain with chipotle-peppered ketchup for dipping or get the Beast Mode option with melted cheese and special sauce, diced pickles and jalapeños. While most locations only have burgers and fries, the New Yorker location also has brown butter cookies and a chocolate shake. While eating on the go is always an option, there is plenty to see inside the Soho shop. Lee and Williams's affinity for skate culture comes to life here, with custom artwork from local NYC artist Jappy Agoncillo and skateboards previously ridden by Williams mounted on the wall. There's also a corner for merch, including NADC-branded skate decks and Williams's signature NADC Spice Rubs. However, the real treat is the outdoor 50-seat patio, ready to welcome all for burgers alfresco. As of today, the doors to the burger shop are now open. If you happen to stop by this opening weekend, from May 16 to 18, you can get a limited-time ice cream sandwich made by baker Jess Williams and pastry chef Margarita Kallas-Lee.

Comedians Tom Segura, Bert Kreischer try NADC Burger at SXSW. Watch their reaction
NADC Burger left comedians Tom Segura and Bert Kreischer nearly speechless — for all the right reasons. The pair were spotted devouring the burgers, born from a collaboration between professional skateboarder Neen Williams and Michelin-starred chef Phillip Frankland Lee, at a Por Osos vodka party in south Austin during the South by Southwest Festival. "This is so good," Kreischer says as he closes his eyes in what appears to be pure bliss. "This is so good. "It's good with the vodka, too," Frankland Lee agrees. "Actually, we've been talking about doing, like, a secret menu. Yeah! We could have a little secret — like, 'Yo, wanna turn this thing into two bears one burger?' We could spike it with a little Por Osos. Should we do that?" "Perfect, I love secret menus," Segura says. "Yeah, you should," Kreischer says around a mouthful. "We should do it," Frankland Lee confirms. This article originally appeared on Austin American-Statesman: Tom Segura, Bert Kreischer speechless after trying NADC Burger at SXSW
