We Are So Back: Take Me To Your Spot, Season 2

Our series of restaurant regulars and their favorite restaurants returns ...

Yes, friends, you read that headline correctly — we’re back with another season of Take Me To Your Spot, our short-form video series about great restaurants and the great guests who love them. In today’s increasingly fractured and noisy restaurant recommendation landscape—lists, algorithms, influencers, creators, you name it—what’s better than getting a bonafide regular to actually vouch for a place? Someone who not only can get into the joint whenever they want, but someone who’s also put in enough time to know all the moves — when to go and where to sit and what to order and maybe even the bartender’s name, too. In short, the type of person who’s become part of the place. Because as far as the restaurant equation goes, part of the magic comes down to the guests — the people in the room, night after night.

For Season 2 of Take Me To Your Spot, which you can watch on TikTok, Instagram, and right here on The Supersonic, we’ve shot entirely at restaurants on Blackbird. Spots like: Bar Madonna, Bonnie’s, Gjelina, Phoenix Palace, Third Falcon, Nudibranch, Nowon and more. Like what you see at a certain spot? Great — you can go there right now, check in and pay with Blackbird, and start earning $FLY and other rewards (plus some Blackbird exclusives — see below) immediately. Who knows, pretty soon, it could be your spot, too.

To cast this season, we’ve worked closely with our restaurant partners, who were all happy to open up their guest books and connect us with some of their true regulars. And, as it turns out, restaurant regulars happen to be pretty interesting people. Meaning we broke bread with guests like Jack Coyne of Track Star, Claire Banse of The Drunken Canal, Andrew Chen of 3sixteen, and Eli Zabar (who needs no introduction).

Want to take us to your favorite spot? Hit us up in the comments below, or slide into our DMs on Instagram or TikTok for a chance to guest star on a future episode.
