Getting Better with Age

Brooklyn Uncorked, a Long Island Wine and Brooklyn food event is this Wednesday. If you don't have tickets yet you can get them one of two ways. Full price tickets are available from Brown Paper Tickets. Or you can score half-price tickets by subscribing or renewing your subscription to Edible Brooklyn. Last year's event, our first time, was wonderful, but an enthusiastic turn out made for tight quarters even in the expansive BAM Cafe. The year the event spreads out on two floors at the illustrious Brooklyn Academy of Music at 30 Lafayette Avenue in Fort Greene, Brooklyn. Several new Brooklyn food participants will be present including Farmhouse on Adderly, a favorite dining experience of outer borough foodies and intreprid Manhattanites. After the event, head directly across the street to Thomas Biesl, and change this up for your tastebus with yards of beer and mussels, the celebrated celeriac schnitzel or to share a few of their truly fresh and decadent desserts. Brooklyn Uncorked runs from 4-8 p.m. Non-profit partners include: City Harvest, Slow Food and Brooklyn Food Plan.
