Pupusamania!
As noted on New York magazine's Grub Street food blog today, the legendary Latino food vendors from the Red Hook ballfields will be setting up a satellite location at ze Flea. There simply aren't enough exclamation points or emoticons of euphoria to express our elation at this development, which Senor Flea has been cultivating over the last few months. Suffice it to say we're simultaneously smiling and salivating.
This Sunday (May 18), the first stand will open with grilled corn and fruits, and May 25 a larger stand with the storied huaraches and pupusas--made with love (and pounds of toppings) by Fernando and Rafael--will make its Flea debut. Senor Flea can hardly contain his culinary enthusiasm.
We are grateful to Cesar and the Red Hook vendors for sharing their papusa prowess with our little mercado. And make sure to visit the full crew in Red Hook in full splendor starting in June!
On an unrelated note, props to Cool Hunting for doing a day-long feature on some of our hippest vendors. Super-cool!
Look for our first Flea Flickr sometime tomorrow.

Is it still the plan to bring on the huaraches and pupusas this coming Sun (5/25)? Roughly what time will the first ones be coming off the griddle?
