If you didn't get a ticket to this weekend's huge Great GoogaMooga in Prospect Park, there's still plenty of great outdoor eats to take advantage of, like the Taste of Tribeca and the New Taste of the Upper West Side. And over on the East River Waterfront in Williamsburg, there's another great reason to check out this Saturday's Smorgasburg, which welcomes Miss Lily's (Anna Wintour's most-hated local eatery) to the party this week.
West Houston Street Jamaican joint Miss Lily's will be offering up jerk chicken and jerk corn from their big barrel. You will be tempted. Also new this weekend: Bossa Nova Chicken Burgers, Chickpea and Olive, and the anticipated return of Brooklyn Grange. As an added bonus, you can peruse the Brooklyn Flea Record Fair there while you eat!
Considering the weather, this might be the perfect time to take a trip on the East River Ferry—which conveniently stops right outside the foodie mecca.
