Participating venues include Bedford Hall, Bombay Heights, Corner Grind, Joloff, Napoleon Southern Cuisine & Bakery, Oaxaca Taqueria, Pilar Cuban Eatery and Stop Time. Food trucks will also be stationed along the strip, including The Jerk Shop, Miss Holly’s Smokehouse, Cuzin’s Dozens and La Bella Torte. In addition, music will be provided by DJ Jamed and DJ Internal Affairs (aka Rennie) along with a special happy hour tasting at Bedford Hall.
“Feast Bedstuy is more than a foodie crawl, it’s a celebration of neighborhood businesses and residents,” said Imelba Rodriguez, Senior Program Director for Bridge Street. “We are proud to have played a part in helping to revitalize our business corridors and positively impact businesses through increased awareness.”
Funded by a New York City Department of Small Business Services grant, the Bedford Avenue crawl is the last in a series of neighborhood crawls hosted over the past two years to highlight Central Brooklyn as a culinary destination via the district’s small businesses combined with the lush spirit and unique characteristics of the historic neighborhood.
Bridge Street’s Feast BedStuy: Bedford Avenue takes place Tuesday, June 21, 6-9pm. Look for the official Feast BedStuy signage on store windows to join the crawl or to enjoy Feast BedStuy at your own pace.
