Will the food give you a heart attack-ack-ack-ack-ack?

I'm surprised he's not opening an Italian Restaurant, but he'd probably have a bottle of white, a bottle of red and then make a scene.

Can I get a table near the street?

There's a lot of pressure PRESSURE involved with running a restaurant.


/Call it Uptown Grill

If the place is called Captain Jack's, I'll definitely be asking them to hold the special sauce.

Heres their first ad:


In the middle of the...I go pooping in the (3X)
In the middle of the night, I go pooping in my sleep
From the mountains of fries, to a soda so deep.
I must be looking for something, something filling I lost
But the burger is wide, and it's too hard to eat
And even though I know my ass is wide
I walk down every evening and stand in the line
And try to eat to the opposite side
So I can finally find out what I've been hungering for
In the middle of the night, I go pooping in my sleep

Grill us some burgers
You're the patty man
Toast us some buns tonight

Well we're all in the mood for a double cheese
And you've got our eating some fries

my sister will probably go, she's got a date
I'll just sit at home, and masturbate.

Is Padma Lakshmi going to replace Katie Lee after a year?

 
deadsanta 2009-04-02 12:49:37 PM  
Joel is a douche, I hope she loses/spends all his money.

More likely they'll make a second fortune a la Paul Newman and I'll have to cross the street to get by the crowds in front of their chain stores the way I did in the 80's with the Hard Rock Cafes.

It will be called Glass Houses, you'll have to go through Turnstiles to enter and the best seats will be next to The Nylon Curtain.

Screw the burger joint. I got a tab at Zanzibar.

Will this be an uptown grill?

 
NimbleWalrus 2009-04-02 03:42:57 PM  
Grillintown is the best I can come up with.

 
Clash City Farker 2009-04-02 03:49:54 PM  
Billy, are the burgers ready yet?

No, we didn't start the fire.

Shake Shack
Schiller's Liquor Bar
P.J. Clarke's
Corner Bistro
JG Melon's

Just don't blink, the waiters will leave their tables.

Can I get a table near the street?

I'll treat you to a bottle of red, bottle of white, or perhaps a bottle of rosé instead?

It all depends upon your appetite.

 
FirstNationalBastard 2009-04-02 09:51:41 PM  
I think it's good that Billy Joel is opening a restaurant, and is finally going to prove that there's a place in the world for the hungry young man.

 
BBriguy98 2009-04-02 10:20:54 PM  
Is it in a town known as Oyster Bay, Long Island?

Maybe called, Billy the Kid's?

 
Mangoose 2009-04-02 10:32:01 PM  
So it's going a Shake Shack clone? Which is pretty much a clone of Bay Burger as it is. There comes a point where you are so far removed from a source that to call it derivative becomes pointless.

The food might be okay, but the bar just closed, and the windows never open.

Really? Please regaile us all with your tales of Mr. Joel's epic douchebaggery... Since you obviously know him personally, and all.
