MARBLE CAKE WITH SPICY CHEESE TOPPING ON N. 9th AND DRIGGS (BROOKLYN, NY)


Pedestretarian contributor Baiju Prafulkumar Bhatt found this food item resting on top of a corduroy jacket in a Brooklyn neighborhood inhabited mainly by a mixture of “old Polish families and twenty-something recently graduated liberal arts majors.” Baiju says the dish, which was accompanied by a mostly empty, melting iced coffee, looked like a “moist, bready substance,” possibly a Reuben sandwich, topped with cheese. Poking at it with a fork made him curious and hungry enough to take a bite, revealing that the dish was in fact something resembling marble cake. The cake tasted of vanilla and chocolate, and the substance blanketing it was a cheese with a “spicy, Southwestern twang” Baiju believes was jack. He speculated that the cake/cheese was a “KFC Famous Bowl” style concoction, and noted that the cheese was melting visibly in the morning heat.
