Adrienne Cheatham Instagram – *Bodega appreciation post*
Next year is my 20 year anniversary of living in New York and one thing has been consistent throughout…my love and unwavering support for my local bodegas. Some are better than others, but from Brooklyn to Harlem they have always held me down with coffee in the morning and sandwiches, snacks &/or salads at any time of day (and random items like cups of ice) because I cook for others but usually not for myself 🤷🏽♀️ and without them I would be lost.
The guy at my local bodega understands when I ask him to fully or not fully scramble the eggs, because sometimes I like pockets of yolk (just not runny if I’m going to eat it while walking to the train), and that is rare. He makes chunky, spicy guacamole every morning and encouraged me to get it on my egg sando instead of tomato, and I’m glad I know to trust the chef! Straight 🔥
The point… Get to know your local bodega, talk to the people who work there, and tip the cook a couple bucks if they make your order just the way you like it! They’re the ones who really support the restaurant industry! 🙌🏽💗 Btw, I’m here for the labeling 😂
