What I wrote thereFold it away

DeKalb Market Hall (445 Albee Square West, Downtown Brooklyn) sits under City Point with 40+ vendors and it’s massive. The standout is Katz’s Delicatessen, which opened a location here and serves the same pastrami as the legendary LES original.

The variety here is staggering. Ethiopian, Jamaican, Japanese, Colombian, soul food, dumplings, arepa, all within a two-minute walk. It can feel overwhelming. My advice is to do one lap, identify three things that look good, and commit.
