Report from Dumbo

It may be cloudy and sticky out here in Dumbo Brooklyn, but that hasn't phased the brooklyn-ites and other urban dwellers. People are out in full force enjoying the splendors of the market. Jesse and his younger sister (below) are chumping on a couple of tasty, crunchy, hbp's New Dill pickles on a stick. Nothing like a fresh, cool, dill on a warm summer day.





A couple of must-buys when visiting Dumbo Market. Below, Jersey Tomatoes, from Philips farms out of Milford Jersey, are ripe and ready to go. These juicy babies are delicious by themselves or garnished with a pinch of sea salt. At the bottom fresh baked bread from Orwasher's Bakery. The oldest bakery in NYC, Orwasher knows how to bake the perfect loaf. Get to the market early to get your share. Look out for Orwasher bread as featured in
my pickle combo of the week.

  1. Hi Nick, tried the cherry peppers with brie and fresh slices of bread (no pilsner, though), as you suggested. Delicious.

    By the way, my girlfriend thought they were called "cherry poppers." I explained to her that had a different meaning altogether.

    Thanks, again. You've gained two loyal customers and fans.
