EaterWire: More Eldridge Intel, 3rd Ward's Pig Out, and Red Hook Hysteria

RED HOOK— If for some reason, 'Go to Red Hook and Eat Tacos' isn't enough instruction for you, Serious Eats NY has a new definintive guide. It's mostly a collection of what was already reported, but you've got all your history, maps, and links in one place. [SE]

LOWER EAST SIDE— Cutty has some new intel on The Eldridge the yet to open "exclusive and luxurious" club that some are prematurely deeming the hottest place ever: "...it will be at 247 Eldridge Street, in the 1,000-square-foot space that used to be Luv 24/7...Levine has redone the storefront to resemble a faux bookstore, with used tomes such as Weight Watchers Cookbook, The Conscience of the Rich, Letters of Sigmund Freud, and Roughnecks and Gentlemen. As Back Room and its faux toy store showed, it’s going to take a little more than this to make the Eldridge the hottest place in town." [Cutlets]

BUSHWICK— Bushwick venue and performance space 3rd Ward will be holding "Pig Out" this Sunday from 4 - 9 p.m. Brooklyn Paper has some details: "Marlow & Sons butcher Tom Mylan will be roasting the pig on a homemade grill built by 3rd Ward’s own shop manager, and serving it up in the more inviting form of pork tacos. Coleslaw, potato salad and beer will round out the feast. Admission is free, and plates will cost $6." [Brooklyn Paper]
