The Brooklyn Paper reports that Ted & Honey (Clinton St. next to Cobble Hill Park) is now selling its own homemade baby food. If you’ve ever tried your own kid’s mush, you’ll understand why. “If you’re not willing to eat their food, then why should they?,” Chris “Ted” Jackson remarked to the paper. The baby food is just one of a few new or recent developments at T&H. Others include the end of the strange “closed Mondays” policy and the acquisition of a smoker — bacon for sandwiches is now smoked on premises. And soon, perhaps the biggest change: beer and wine, and an evening menu.
Ted tells us that the process of getting approval from the city to serve alcohol has been a long one, but that it is in its “final stages.” He’s expecting to be serving a menu of beers and wine by August; he’ll also be making beer cocktails — michelada, snakebite, and a variation on an Arnold Palmer he has invented. The evening menu will be slightly more restaurant-y, with a cheese platter, a smoked fish plate, hummus, and pizza baked with special artisanal dough.
