Happy Memorial Day Weekend!
Ride Your Bike, Then Dig In at Smorgasburg
From Manhattan, it was a quick and easy bike ride over the Williamsburg Bridge last weekend for the launch of Smorgasburg, the Saturday foodapolooza produced by the same folks who bring us The Brooklyn Flea. Big crowds included plenty of cyclists, judging from the content of the fences (above) that surround the East River plot where almost 100 food vendors and greenmarket farmers offer their tempting fare. My advice if you plan to check it out this weekend: Go early to avoid the lunchtime lines for take-away food!
