It’s like the Super Bowl of Brooklyn food. Like the Chiefs and 49ers who will battle head-to-head for the NFL championship the second time this decade, Pecking House and Fini are two restaurants at the top of their games as well. Masterfully engineered chicken by Chef Eric Huang will meet its match collabing with Fini Pizza for the greatest wings and pizza combo Brooklyn may ever see. It’s available for pick up at both Fini locations on Super Bowl Sunday for a meal as high-octane as the game. Find all the info in the 💥 Pop-ups category on the 8it app.

Whether you’ll be needing an edible hug on Wednesday or you’re still trying to figure out a fun Valentine’s Day date for you and bae, this Sip & Paint experience is your bag.

Chef Picky is taking over the kitchen at Miss Lily’s for Valentine’s Day and no couple in the East Village is safe. This man could steal anyone’s lover with one bite. But if you’re willing to take the risk, he’s running a 3-course Valentine’s Day menu featuring oxtail doubles, coconut stew salmon, jerk chicken, banana pudding, coconut cream rum cake and more.

Not only will Smoke Sweats be slinging his famous ribs at Commune as a belated Valentine’s Day gift for all his fans on Thursday, he’s also throwing down super bowls of BBQ pork ramen. Perhaps an allusion to Lunar New Year? If you’re too busy to take bae out on Wednesday, this is how to win them back. Find all the info in the 💥 Pop-ups category on the 8it app.
Lunar New Year Party

Nowon is throwing a Lunar New Year banger next Friday featuring a stacked lineup of passed bites and stationed food. Their latest drop, the smashed lamb burger will feature alongside ricotta toast, spicy gochujang fried chicken, mushroom noodles, their legendary burger and tteokguk pizza. Additionally, the smashed lamb burger will run starting on the 10th until the 17th, so there will be plenty of opportunity to secure the bag all week.
