Brokelyn is proud to introduce our food columnist, The Brokavore, an obsessively cheap but highly discerning eater who will be trolling our borough’s taco trucks, shwarma stands and rice-and-bean joints for toothsome discoveries. When not filling up on dumplings in Sunset Park or hunting for great produce in Brooklyn’s yonder lands, he lives with his family in the South Slope, a convenient bike ride from the Red Hook Ball Fields. You can reach him at Brokavore@Brokelyn.com.
