Much in the same way we’re bringing ourĀ favoriteĀ North Brooklyn restaurants to the Lower East Side for our B+B Bazaar this Saturday, a Bushwick bar is importing a Lower East Side chef into its kitchen.Ā Kings County SaloonĀ (yes, they of the smallest penis contest and clown antics)Ā just announced a series of pop-up dinners withĀ Sandy Hall of Black Tree.
We’re psyched, because the seasonal sando shop with the killer beer listĀ is one of our favorite under-the-radar spots on the Lower East Side (and yes, we consider it under-the-radar even though it appeared onĀ Diners, Drive-Ins & DivesĀ — don’t worry, there’s nothing Guy Fieri about this mellow little place).
From Nov. 5 to Nov. 8, Hall will be serving dishesĀ made from whole-roasted duck and pig, and then, on Nov. 9, the pop-up will wrap up with a luau ($25)Ā featuringĀ suckling-pig sliders and prochetta, a tiki punch, boilermakers,Ā and “WaikikiĀ Jello Shots” — plusĀ live music performances by High Waisted, Las Rosas and The Mystery Lights.Ā
Here’s the menu.

Duck Tacos ($10)
Pulled leg, smoked cherries, chive pesto and cilantro
