Is it a bodega?

October 19, 2008

The Brooklyn Kitchen celebrated last Thanksgiving with a bodega challenge: create a side dish for 10 with $20 worth of corner store ingredients. To level the playing field, they provided a helpful quiz to figure out whether your local market qualifies as a true bodega.

Take a look around your local market, does it have the following?

Cat (+1 points)

Organic Milk (-1 points)

Lottery Station (+1 points)

Kombucha (-2 points)
