Stocking Your Picnic Basket at Brooklyn’s Best Gourmet Shops
One of the best parts of summer is ditching the kitchen and dining al fresco — at an outdoor concert, a park, a beach, or maybe just as part of an imagined getaway on the roof of your pre-war walkup.
Luckily, what the city lacks in rolling green spaces, it makes up in prime spots to pack a killer basket of eclectic goodies — whether your taste runs to sheep’s milk cheese, artisan chocolate and local honey, or pickled okra, chicken kiev, and babaganoush.
