Greek Freak

     Two weeks ago my "main squeeze" Annie, made an appearance to the always eventful neighborhood of Brooklyn, NY. Needless to say we were all happy she made it. Being the very busy lady that she is, she could only pencil me in for 23 hours and boy did we make it count. We started off the evening in the pouring rain watching one of our favorite bands, The Lone Bellow, at the free summer concert series Celebrate Brooklyn! Rain lead to frozen yogurt at 16 Handles (read my post about it here). And that is how we ended up here:
    After a night of laughter we were ready to eat again the next morning and that is when we turned to Anthi's Greek Speecialties at Smorgasburg in DUMBO. In typical Annie and Olivia fashion, we got two things and split them: a Chicken Gyro and a spinach pie called Spanakopita. It was delicious!



     To check out the full menu click here. If you can't make it on Sunday's to Smorgasburg,  you can visit Anthi's Greek Speecialties at 614A Amsterdam Ave. New York, NY 10024 or call them at (212) 787-1007. In conclusion, go be a Greek freak and enjoy this great food!

Brooklyn Flea Food Market: Smorgasburg


After a failed attempt to win lottery tickets to the Broadway show Matilda last weekend, my friend Elaine and I needed a new plan so we headed to Brooklyn and the festivities at Smorgasburg. After spending a few hours there I could see this place becoming part of my weekly routine. 

Smorgasburg is made up of  "packaged and prepared foods, beverages, and more from purveyors from New York City and across the region, for a total of 75-100 vendors." For a full list of vendors click here.  They are open "Saturdays at East River State Park—Kent Ave. and N. 7 St.—on the Williamsburg waterfront; and Sundays on the DUMBO waterfront at the historic Tobacco Warehouse in Brooklyn Bridge Park." This place is so awesome that you have to experience it for yourself!

Check out some of the awesome vendors we visited last Satruday in Williamsburg:

Sunday Gravy NYC

Pecan Patti


Bamboo Bites- sticky rice

Mighty Quinns

Butter & Scotch

handsome hank's
These are just a few of the awesome places that we visited. They have so many vendors and something for everyone! This weekend make this your number one thing to do. Enjoy!
