by

Virgil’s Real Barbecue is one of the only “real” reasons I even dare to enter into tourist trap called Times Square.  For as overcrowded as this area can be, there are some surprisingly delicious locations that you can find within it where you escape from the crowds and into a real barbecue heaven type of atmosphere.  I took a friend there late last week to experience what Virgil’s had to offer and finished with a happy face and an overly used bib.
