TASTY NEWS!

Word on the street is that the return of the Red Hook Vendors may happen as early as the weekend of July 19th! I hang my head in shame that I've never visited them or their inexpensive manna from heaven that they cook up on the spot. This happy gathering of Latin American food vendors usually takes place every weekend during warm weather, but due to a crackdown by the city last year, there have been a number of hurtles slowing their return, the last of which is the Health Department inspections of the vendors' trucks and carts. I'm hoping that these go smoothly and quickly so that I too can know of the authentic, fresh food served up near the corner of Bay and Clinton Streets in Red Hook, Brooklyn. Mmmm, tacos, pupusas, huaraches, tamales -- this may be the comfort food nirvana for which I've been searching!
