SuperMac - New York

I have long been at odds with restaurants who promise a good Mac and Cheese only to serve up something yellow and eggy with overcooked pasta and no flavor. That said I love the idea of a restaurant dedicated solely to making macaroni and cheese. I just wish they could some with a stronger and more complex flavors.

Food: Mediocre Mac and Cheese in 12 varieties. First I tried the four Cheese with whole wheat pasta and bread crumbs with was severely average. Then I had the Cheeseburger Mac which as a slightly more homemade version Hamburger Helper. Both types surprisingly tasted better after sitting in my fridge overnight.

Atmosphere: Pinkberry meets the Pasta Roni aisle

The road to hell is paved in Hamburger Helper. And any cole slaw that has the indecency to include marshmallows in it's ingredients list.

Seriously though, this looks like a really interesting shop. Specialty restaurants, like cake shops, have always really fascinated me. Too bad you didn't really enjoy it...

Super Mac is the Mac Daddy! (Or should that be Daddy Mac?) The place is tiny, but the flavor is BIG.

Next time you are in the South Florida area, I will have to take you to The Food Shack. They have an AMAZING mac and cheese with curry and giant hunks of chicken. Claes loves it so much he makes his own version at home when we are too poor to go to Food Shack. I think his version is better, but he does not. You will have to be the judge, Bloghungry.
