A Trip to Smorgasburg

The Ramen Burger at Smorgasburg!
For my dad’s birthday, we decided to go to Smorgasburg.  Smorgasburg is a bunch of food stands in Brooklyn (go figure that my dad wanted to go here).  The first stand we went to was a ramen burger stand.  The bun was made of ramen noodles with a sweet sauce in it so when you bit into it, the sauce came pouring into your mouth.  The burger was really just a burger, but with a different bun.  I know it was just a burger, but it was so good when you took a bite. The ramen bun turned into ramen noodles and the burger was so juicy and the sauce was so sweet.  It all came together to be ramen + burger = delicious.

The next stand we went to was a stand that was called Brooklyn Soda Works.  When we were looking at the menu something caught our eye. It was an Arnold Palmer soda.  An Arnold Palmer is a mix of iced tea and lemonade.  It is really refreshing especially on a hot day, and that day was probably the hottest day of the year.  So since we love Arnold Palmers so much, we decided to get it (obviously).  It was  a little bit different because it had that sparkling taste to it.  Besides that it was delicious.

The next place we went to was sort of like a bakery, but we didn’t get any bakery treats because it was so hot.  So, we decided to get a thai iced tea fudgesicle.  It tasted really sweet because of the iced tea and there was a slight taste of fudgesicle in there.  I would’ve liked a tiny bit more fudgesicle in there, and a tiny bit less thai iced tea in it.

Then we started just walking around until, we came to a place that sold olives and olive oil from California.  First, I tried an olive from the Mediterranean sea.  The olive was really good, but then became super duper salty.  Then the nice women who ran the stand let us try some of the olive oil and it was the best olive oil that I have ever tasted.  Me, my mom, and my dad loved it so much we decided to get a bottle of it.  

The next stand we went to was the stand right nextdoor it was called Ish. They sold  a way better horseradish.  The Ish came in many different varieties from regular horseradish to citrus horseradish and ginger horseradish.  It was the best horseradish ever, and to be completely honest I hate horseradish, but this isn’t horseradish. This is ish.

After that, we needed to sit down so we went over to some tables and sat down.  Then, we noticed that there was a place that sold sticky rice.  So, me and my dad went over and got some mango sticky rice.  The sticky rice had a nice amount of sweetness and the mango was refreshing since it was a hot day, but it went nice with the rice and the black sesame seeds. After that we got a little shade, and then started out again.

While my mom and my brother got ice cream, me and my dad went to Bon Chovie.  At Bon Chovie they are famous for their anchovies (again obviously).  Me and my dad went over and got a couple of fried anchovies with their heads on!  When I tried it I didn’t really like the anchovy because it was soft. I personally don’t love that soft texture.  If you like your anchovies soft then that’s the place to go.

The last place we went to was a place that sold maple lemonade it had a nice maple taste and it was refreshing.  We liked it so much we kept on going back to get another one in the end we got like five of them.  After we got our last maple lemonade we started to head out.  If I had to go back I would get this mango on a stick where you got to put spices and stuff on it, I’d also get the roasted corn with cheese on it.  I’d really like to come back soon.
