Checking out Hudson Eats at Brookfield Place

One of the latest additions to the trendy food court scene is Hudson Eats, located inside Brookfield Place in Battery Park City. Bordered by the Hudson River and nestled among big name retail shops and amenities, Hudson Eats features 14 chef-driven eateries. The 30,000 square foot space has seating for up to 600 customers in a high end environment boasting sleek wood and leather seating, modern light fixtures and stunning views of the river and marina. The “fast-casual” dining area is open seven days a week for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Some of the most popular shops include Black Seed Bagels, Umami Burger, Skinny Pizza, and Sprinkles.

• Black Seed Bagels at Hudson Eats

  • Hand-rolled, boiled and wood-oven baked, Black Seed Bagels are a true combination of Montreal and New York Style bagels. At $1.50 for each of the classic varieties, Black Seed Bagels also offers a wide array of unique house-made spreads and toppings including tobiko caviar, watermelon radish, smoked fish, dill, and almond butter. The full location is located at 170 Elizabeth St.

• Umami Burger at Hudson Eats

  • Centered on the culinary idea of “Umami”, the Japanese word for savory, Umami Burger now has 20 locations in California, Florida and New York. The shop in Hudson Eats offers the same uniquely crafted burgers found in the three New York City locations but without the impossibly long lines those locations are commonly known for. The meat is cooked a juicy medium-rare unless otherwise requested, served on a fluffy bun stamped with a thick, capital “U”. One of the most popular preparation styles is “sunny side”, complete with Parmesan frico, fried egg, truffle thyme compound butter, and truffled arugula. Another favorite is the “manly”, covered in house beer-cheddar cheese, bacon lardoons, smoked-salt onion strings, Umami house ketchup, and mustard spread. Needless to say, come hungry.

• Skinny Pizza at Hudson Eats

  • With the motto “Pure Goodness”, Skinny Pizza’s creators have designed a very thin and crispy pizza that doesn’t lack the flavor or topping choices typically associated with healthy cuisine. The main goal is to cater to health and environmentally conscious customers by making crusts with no preservatives or additives, 100% organic pizza sauce, all natural cheeses, and antibiotic and hormone-free toppings including grilled zucchini, caramelized onions, artichoke hearts, and truffle oil. They also offer delicious custom pastas and fresh organic greens salads. Their drink menu is all-natural with no high-fructose corn syrup.

• Sprinkles at Hudson Eats

  • A great addition to the Hudson Eats lineup, Sprinkles Cupcakes are handcrafted from fresh ingredients including sweet cream butter, bittersweet Belgian chocolate, pure Madagascar Bourbon vanilla, bananas, carrots, strawberries and natural citrus zests. Each topped with their trademark modern dots, sprinkles, and sugar decorations; Sprinkles Cupcakes are a fun and delicious take on the American classic treat. Some of the most popular flavors include the Red Velvet, Peanut Butter Chip, Chocolate Marshmallow and Cinnamon Sugar.
