SPONSORED Friday, 6/1 through Sunday, 6/3 BA Brooklyn Grub Crawl! The Bon Appétit Grub Crawl will take you on a hands-on, interactive food tour at the ground zero of the artisanal-food universe. In true Brooklyn form, you'll experience food and drink up close, hang with the chefs and peek in the kitchen in the back--as opposed to just being served in the front. And if that's not enough, on Saturday it culminates in can't-miss music performances. For more information and to buy tickets now, go to http://bagrubcrawl.com/brooklyn.html.
