Always Hungry: Opening Day at Citi Field
Maryse Chevrière — April 05, 2010
Inside Citi Field.
Last year, the buzz surrounding the fare from the likes of Shake Shack and Blue Smoke at the Mets’ new Citi Field practically outshone the games being played there. With all the misfortune they faced last year, fans could definitely justify waiting on the Shack lines away from the action on the field. With first pitch of the new season at 1:10pm this afternoon, it is once again time to start thinking about the best food the stadium has to offer.
Though the Rabbi Dog is reportedly no longer available, there is still plenty to choose from. If you’re heading over to the stadium check out Always Hungry’s food rundown from 2009 to get ready. There’s a dish by dish at the swanky Acela Club, and a breakdown of the food from all the top-notch vendors.
Hopefully Jason Bay, and a healthy Mets team will send the Mets to the World Series this year to face the Yanks, for a rematch of 2000. Let’s go Mets!

AlwaysInvestigating: Citi Field’s Acela Club
The Gluttoness — May 12, 2009
The view from the Acela Club at Citi Field.
It’s tough to pass up Blue Smoke, Shake Shack, and El Verano Taqueria on field-level at Citi Field, but the sacrifice is worth a meal in the Acela Club, the New York Mets’ Amtrak-branded attempt at fine dining catered by Restaurateur of the Year, Drew Nieporent. While there are flat-screens everywhere inside, you may as well pay the extra $10.00 to sit in the best of the club’s 350 seats (outdoor tables or seats with unobstructed field views in the tiered levels) to better see the game.
