Cheeky Sandwiches, NYC’s home for Big Easy-inspired biscuit sandwiches formerly located on Orchard Street, is popping up at Nudibranch on Sunday ahead of their move to Essex Market. Our favorite sandwiches of theirs from the Orchard Street location included the braised short rib with cherry tomatoes, arugula and horseradish sauce, the fried chicken with colseslaw and gravy, and the fried oysters and shrimp. We’re shaking like jazz hands in anticipation for what they’ll be slinging on Sunday. Find all the info in the 💥 Pop-ups category on the 8it app.

L’Industrie is hosting its first block party since last September when Action Bronson and his crew of culinary comrades shook Williamsburg with a legendary spectacle South 2nd Street will never forget. This time, Fortunato Bros is back and they’ll be slinging gelato while L’Industrie fires up porchetta, hot dogs, cheeseburgers and chicken skewers. The summer vibe will be fortified by Isa’s Vinos providing the wine while Felipe Mendez-Candelas spins tracks. Find all the info in the 💥 Pop-ups category on the 8it app.
