Jodi Lustig and Adam Wattstein are the duo behind Joy Burger Bar, an eatery on Lexington and East 100th Street. There you do find it all: wine, beer, sports, but above all, burgers, in all of their dozens of glorious permutations. The main premise here is that you can build your own burger. Regulars make straight for the counter, dictating their orders.
