during July and August.
Smorgasburg also
has far-fl ung outposts in
California, Brazil, Japan,
and even Manhattan.
This reporter ate his
way through the 24 new
vendors coming to the
Brooklyn locations this
season, at a press preview
event on March 28. The
new lineup is promising
and a little overwhelming,
but be sure to grab a bite
from these stalls.
Poppin’ off!
The Better Pop’s kombucha
popsicles put a healthy
spin on the icy childhood
treat. The pops, which are
made by freezing the fermented
Japanese tea and
adding fruity fl avors, such
as pina colada, cherry sumac,
and chili pineapple,
have a patented hexagonal
shape that helps to avoid
brain freeze and makes
them easier to share.
The refreshing desserts
are a treat and their pro-biotic
properties are good for
your digestion, according
to their creator.
“They’re not super sweet
and they’re just really
good for you,” said Ruby
Schechter.
$5 each. Saturdays only.
Takes the cake
Pizza cupcakes are the
savory snack you didn’t
know you desperately
needed in your life. Creator
Andrea Meggiato and
his wife Michelle were inspired
by a visit to his native
Venice, Italy where
small pizzas, or “pizzettas,”
are a common staple
in local bakeries. The couple
have transformed the
pizzetta, giving it a soft texture
like a doughnut, but
with the tangy cheese and
marinara sauce of a classic
Italian pie. As Andrea
puts it: “It makes pizza portable.”
Two for $7, four for $12.
Saturdays only.
