Smorgasburg is Hungry For Visitors

by | Apr 4, 2016 | Downtown News

Hipsters and foodies rejoice – Smorgasburg’s seasonal outdoor markets have officially re-opened for business!

On April 2nd and 3rd, over twenty new vendors were welcomed with a coveted spot at the widely popular attraction that started in May 2011.  On Saturdays, Manhattanites can flock to East River State Park on Kent Ave and N. 7 St. in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.  As for Sundays, head over to Prospect Park at Breeze Hill on Lincoln Rd. at Ocean Ave.

New items to snack on include Baonanas’s artisanal banana pudding, Brunchstreet’s quail eggs on a stick, Mizu Shingen Mochi’s mind-blowing Raindrop Cake, and the ever-so-camera friendly Wowfulls – a fluffy egg based waffle cone (made on special machines imported from Hong Kong) filled with ice cream and toppings.

With spring fever heating up and countless new menu items, what’s stopping you from enjoying good company, great food, and more importantly – the perfect Instagram? Smorgasbord’s vendors have other locations around the city, including the returning South Street Seaport location.
