Through a lot of soul searching, an in-depth discussion regarding Middle Eastern philosophy, a few too many references Nick Cannon’s hit movie Drumline {…where’s the sequel, Mrs. Mariah Carey?} - and a couple of Banh Mi sandwiches with extra Sriracha, we leave you with this to carry you in to the weekend…
Happy Friday!
You remember Brooklyn Batched, right? Our foodie event series bringing together all of our kewl food friends together in one place to chat food + drinks and to spread love, the Brooklyn way? Right. That Brooklyn Batched.
Well, in the midst of planning for our August installment, we’re feeling nostalgic (Wonder Years style) remembering the fun we all had. BUT - not all is lost. Krrb.com - an online venue that enables more personal face-to-face dealings between neighbors (and an awesome marketplace for NY’ers to find whatever it is they’re lacking) - captured the BKBatched fun, asking our party-goers the most important question of the night… “What is your guilty food pleasure?”
Clicking the image will bring you to the video - to find out what Zak, Jenna & Zach from LDO along with the folks from Sprout Wellness, NibMor Chocolates, Greenpointers.com, Brooklyn Salsa, Sweet Loren’s, The Southern Pantry, Peter Rabbit Organics expose as their guilty food pleasure.
It will also make you hungry.
