Brooklyn Heights Gristedes Over-Pricing… Literally
I didn’t notice this bit of hookey-doo from our pals at the Henry Street Gristedes until I got home. A package of blueberries once $3.99 became $4.99. Fool me once….
Gandhi Palace Opens Tuesday (9/20)
As BHB commenter “Nancy” pointed out in last week’s OTW: With the advent of all new restaurant opoenings in Brooklyn Heights comes another one-”Ghandi Palace”[sic].

Don’t get us wrong, the *new* post-fire Gristedes is a magical place to shop. Sure they may be a little pricey but its air conditioning makes our weekly marketing a breeze!
Big Food Week on Montague Street
It’s been a very exciting food week for Montague Street with the opening of Oh, My Pasta and Hanco’s. And it’s just in time for Montague BID’s Summer Space next Sunday!
