Yesterday, I headed downtown to The Blk Projek’s Bronx Grub Goes Chic event at the BMW Guggenheim Lab. Unfortunately, I missed the bio-bus leaving from Intervale (I would love it if someone had some pics of the bus!), but I made up for it by having taste of almost everything there.
Among the eateries and organizations serving up samples were Harlem Seeds, Inc., Babycakes NYC , and the Bronx-based NattyKakes (located at 2390 Hoffman St.).
I was so glad that NattyKakes was there, I had expected more Bronx restaurants to be participating. At their table, they had mini red velvet cupcakes [Sidebar: I’m usually not really a fan of red velvet cupcakes, but I can’t even begin to tell you how amazing their cupcakes were. Amazing. Crumbs who?] and peach cobbler.
It’s nice to see more Bronx bakeries make names for themselves (see: Land of Cake Believe and Craving 4 Cupcakes) and I vow to try them all. For research purposes of course. Totally.
Check out some pics from yesterday’s event below!
Hey Bronx Socialite. We would love to let you try our cupcakes! Just say when!
Natty Kakes is the best . Support whenever you can you won’t be sorry!
Thanks Bronx Socialite for your kind words.
