M. Wells Is Back, This Time in Brooklyn | Eater NY
"A Bushwick distillery is hosting the restaurant group's new residency to activate its underutilized dining hall as part of a Chef-In-Residence series. Distillery co-owner Allen Katz says, "We’ve been looking for the right collaborators to launch our new Chef-In-Residence series at the distillery and M. Wells is a perfectly glorious fit. I have been fans of theirs since they opened their original location!" The partnership is described as a win-win: the distillery gains programming and an activated dining space while the chefs get a lower-risk venue with on-site spirits production (the gin and rye made on premises), which Obraitis says was a natural fit with their food. The initial Sugar Shack brunch pop-up will run on March 30 and the following four Sundays, with tickets available online, and the food program is expected to serve both neighbors and nearby office workers, including those at the nearby Netflix headquarters." - Emma Orlow
