Upcoming Terrific Event: Brooklyn Uncorked, May 14
Filed Under: Food and Drink Special Events
Brooklyn celebrates the fruits of its loins and the loins of places near it with an afternoon-and-evening cornucopia of bottomless wine, beer, local produce and gourmet food. On Wednesday, May 14th, it's the return of much-lauded Brooklyn Uncorked, hosted by Edible Brooklyn:
Sample a selection of award-winning Long Island and New York
microbrews, including Blue Point Brewery, Brooklyn Brewery, Heartland
Brewery, Sixpoint Craft Ales, and Southampton Publick House.
In
addition to cheese from Stinky Bklyn and Whole Foods Market, Long
Island potato chips, palate-coolers from Wine Cellar Sorbets, freshly
pressed coffees from Bodum, and natural sodas from Grown-up Soda (GuS),
favorite neighborhood restaurants will be serving up samples, including
Bonita, Flatbush Farm, iCi, La Maison du Couscous, Little D Eatery,
Palo Santo, Smoke Joint, and Stonehome Wine Bar, as well as Great
Performances caterers. Music will be provided by WLIU radio. Glasses
are courtesy of Reidel.
There's no way this won't be terrific, unless you get shot later that day. It takes place at BAM, tickets are $50 (a fair price, I think), and it sold out much in advance last year. (After the jump, a nice picture from Brooklyn Uncorked 2007.)
