Jeremy Paredes, Claire Coget and Catherine Alvarez are the amazing team behind At The Brickyard, which is a monthly, invitation-only dinner party located at the backyard of an apartment in Bushwick. We attended July’s dinner party themed after Shakespeare’s play “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.” Just as the lovers of the play find themselves stranded in a forest outside Athens, we found ourselves in the magical backyard, where Jeremy and Claire sent their potions in the form of magical tarts, enchanting sorbet, and mesmerizing birdseed bread with honeysuckle butter. Lovely Catherine played the role of Puck, enchanting us with the magical capabilities that food has when consumed as an overall aesthetic experience.
