BYO Madness!
Thanks to a comment from byob lover to our Kuma Inn BYO review, we learned about BYOBLocator (http://www.byoblocator.com). This will be an amazing online resource for BYOB lovers everywhere when it takes off. BYOBLocator is in its infancy and really needs people like us to log on and spread the word about BYOB spots in their locale. The site creators designed an engine so that anyone can add a BYOB that others can then search for. It’s completely free, but how valuable it ultimately becomes depends on input from users and restaurant owners. BYOB owners can enter information about their BYOB and update it regularly. BYOB Locator will be adding more features soon such as ability for BYOB owners to add and update their menus. Right now there are no results when you type in NYC area zip codes. Let’s see if we can change that. In addition to these, I’m adding the following to BYOBLocator as we speak:
BYO is back at Persimmon Kimchi House (1st Ave. & 10th)
Sigiri Sri Lanka Restaurant (1st Ave b/t 5th & 6th)
Free corkage Monday nights at Tribeca Grill (Greenwich and Franklin)


Thanks for the great shout out and the addition of the NYC BYOB’s! Any thoughts or recommendations are warmly welcome from your readers.
