The Blogosphere is Faster

This is funny; on Monday I read about Mast Brothers Chocolate on the site of a fellow blogger, Hollister Hovey. The brothers make their chocolate by hand in their shop in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, roasting their own cocao beans, and I planned to go visit this Saturday.

Today, Wednesday, the Mast brothers and other Brooklyn epicures who make artisanal food are on the front page of The New York Times Dining section in a story called "Now in Brooklyn, the 19th Century." (With a different title on The New York Times website.)

Now I wonder if there will be a line to get in?

hello gorgeous said...: I love this and loved it on HH. I hope all things created with love and care will be what people desire again rather than a bunch of crap from Wal-Mart.; March 11, 2009 at 11:28 AM
