A 24-year-old chef lowered $25 steak dinners from his Brooklyn apartment window by pulley, then one person reportedly kept filing 311 complaints

Some Guy’s House, a Brooklyn steak pop-up that lowered dinners from an apartment window, has shut down after only about two weeks, following a string of complaints to the city. Chef Chianli Hang, 24, ran the pop-up, and its website now says it is “no longer operating” and that all current and upcoming orders are being refunded, as reported by Dexerto . Hang’s landlord reportedly told him that one person had filed multiple complaints with New York City’s 311 system. Six complaints were reportedly filed about the pop-up, and two of them led to written warnings from the city’s Department of Health being sent to the landlord. “We were really excited for the send-off. But then we got shut down,” Hang said. The group had planned to operate for one more week, fill around 100 pre-orders, and possibly throw a DJ-backed send-off party. However, the landlord reportedly worried the apartment might be functioning as a full-scale commercial kitchen. The pulley idea only lasted about two weeks Hang and five friends launched Some Guy’s House as a limited food experiment and social media project. Instead of a storefront, they used a homemade pulley system to lower steak dinners from their second-floor

This Old School New York Luncheonette Has Been A Brooklyn Favorite Since 1936

Free cookies and orange slices for people waiting in line. That’s the welcome at one Brooklyn diner, where weekend crowds often stretch down the block. The treats aren’t a gimmick or a new trend. Staff have long handed out coffee, water, cookies, and fruit to hungry folks on the sidewalk. I appreciate a place that treats the wait like part of the meal.
