Nothing says fall quite like a steaming bowl of soup on a crisp day. The restaurants on Smith Street, in the Cobble Hill/Carroll Gardens/Boerum Hill neighborhoods of Brooklyn, couldn't agree more! Each year in October, restaurants between Atlantic Ave and 2nd street participate in a "soup crawl" to help the local public School For International Studies raise money for it's Culinary Arts program. Tasting tickets are sold in multiple locations up and down Smith Street, which can then be redeemed for the soups of your choice. The options are plentiful (see last years menu above!), the portions are generous and it is all for an excellent cause. This is my absolute favorite event of the fall! Did I mention that it happens tomorrow? From 1 to 4 on October the 18th, Smith Street shall be my heaven. I encourage you all to attend!!
