Given our competitive-eating expertise, we’re pretty sure we could topple this challenge at the new Ottomaneli Brothers restaurant on Fifth Avenue and 111th Street: “If you can eat the 24-ounce steak burger (that’s three of their normal hamburgers stacked with cheese and bread on a bun topped with fried onions) and fries and a 20-ounce soda within 20 minutes, your next lunch special is free,” says City Room. Seems like a breeze, but former New York Knick Cal Ramsey couldn’t rise to the occasion, and apparently only two people have, one of them a Brit. New York, this might be the reason Combos just ranked us the least manly city in America. (Or maybe the city really is getting healthier?)
