this street fair takes place in the street of mahatten … there are usually vendors who sell various goods such as pottery or paintings and food….usually the street fair has a theme…this is a pretty devisee street fair…events hold up around the late spring on the weekends…so wear Shorts and a loose t-shirt.. And a sun hat!
I am a food festival junkie. I guess the first step is admitting you have a problem. But there is just something about grabbing some food from specially curated local vendors and sampling different types of cuisine that you eat with your hands all in one cool outdoor space . That is what is so nice about the Hester Street fair. I have been to all of the different locations but what makes this location different is that it is situated along Sixth Avenue inside Bryant Park and they are working hand in glove with the HBO Film Festival. Its a great way to unwind when you have a case of the Mondays because you can just spend some time hanging out in one of New York's nicest parks to see and be seen. The nice central midtown location of Bryant Park doesn't hurt either.
This little fair has some of the usual offerings of Khao Man Gai- with their hainanese style chicken rice, Oaxaca Taqueria- tacos anyone, Lizzmonade- refreshing summery drinks, Luke's Lobster- summer=lobster roll time, Handsome Dan's Candy- like a small candy store complete with cotton candy maker, Duck Eateries- healthy snacks and juices, Deviant Chef- innovative fusion food, Ludlow Pizza- nothing says New Yawk like a good slice from a freshly made pie, Low Country- cajun crawfish broil and Pop Karma- finger food and because its in Bryant Park they also have an extra Wichcraft stand here if you want some sammiches.
Very convenient if you are meeting up with some friends to catch a free summer flick on the big screen in the park or just want to sit on one of the small outdoor cafe tables littered all over the park. One tiny table and 10 chairs will do just fine.
It's only operating on Mondays nights here in the summer so stop by and catch it before its gone.
Pretty exciting street fair…
