Serious Eats: New York

Super Bowl Food Sources: Brooklyn

Posted by Ed Levine, February 3, 2008

It's just about 1 PM, a little more than five hours before game-time, and even those Brooklynites who hate planning in advance finally have to confront the issue of what they're going to eat tonight as we root the Giants on to victory. So for all of you last-minute Super Bowl feast shoppers, consider these delicious options:

Carroll Gardens:

Esposito's Pork Store: Hot and cold heroes
Caputo Fine Foods: Excellent sandwiches and prepared foods
Frankie's 457: Incredible meatball sandwiches on Sullivan Street pizza bianco
House of Pizza and Calzones: New owners are still making very good pizza and calzones
Luna Rossa: New Neapolitan-Style pizza place way down Court Street
Schnack: Sliders and hot dogs from Harry Hawk, who cares a lot about both

Williamsburg:

Bonita: Terrific Mexican food from the Marlowe & Sons crew
DuMont Burgers: Good, not great burgers from the DuMont folks
Fette Sau: You'll have to wait until these guys open at 5 PM to see if they'll sell you any barbecue
Papa Lima's: Solid sandwiches made with high-quality fillings and Tom Cat Bakery bread

Park Slope:

Pepe's Pizza and Panini: Kuban has been raving over on Slice about Pepe's, and Pepe himself has been known to deliver his pies
Joe's Pizzeria of Bleecker St.: Brooklyn branch of solid Carmine Street sliceria is a good back-up if Pepe's is too jammed up
The Chip Shop: Excellent fish and chips
Pollio: Fine Italian sandwiches hot and cold

What else have I missed?
