Assemblywoman Joan Millman freaks out when she realizes that Marty gets the first piece of cake — likely because his first piece is the whole piece.
Marty’s fixie can’t support the sheer weight of his after-State-of-the-Borough-Address-snack, so he brought his tricycle instead. (Taken from the Post)
NOTE: This is an open call for all of your Marty Eating at the State of the Borough Address pics from last night. He had to eat SOMETHING. Keep those shots coming, lest we fail, as a borough, to document our leader’s work.

Matzo-Brie and… APPLE JUICE!? Shirley, you can’t be serious.
Celebrity reader Daniel Goldstein — yes, THAT Daniel Goldstein! — sent in this shot from the Daily News of Marty eating a snack. Note that snack-time is a two plate minimum.
And what a story! The paper reports that the borough president has vowed to donate $1-million to build a giant food-themed mega-super-culinary-dome-plex so that everyone, everywhere can eat. After Marty, of course.
Reader submission!
“So I turn on the TV, and… Wow. What are the odds?”
The odds are in your favor, friend.
MARTY LOVES THIS BLOG!
Finally, someone at the Post asked the borough president if he enjoys the work we do. His message is clear:
Markowitz … laughed off the blog posting, saying, “It’s all in good fun.”
“It will make it much more difficult to perform my charter-required borough president duty of sampling Brooklyn’s great food and boosting our culinary economy — while keeping it a secret from my wife Jamie, whose computer will almost certainly provide the most ‘hits’ for this blog,” he said.

Anonymous asked: Does Marty ever get full?
Nobody puts it better than the man himself. Marty tells Grub Street:
“They don’t foist food on me at events, but the minute I walk in, I see it. It calls me over — ‘Marty.’ I have to fight myself not to go over. If I have a bite, there will be another bite and another bite and another bite.”
