What a whirlwind of a first year they have had: they’ve received glowing recognition all over the press (us, Eater, The New Yorker) gotten favorable Zagat and Michelin Star ratings, and launched a brunch and a tasting menu, all of which suggests that this first anniversary of their opening won’t be the last one they have occasion to celebrate

Highly anticipated “urban tiki” destination Dromedary Bar officially opened last Friday, April 22nd, and Bushwick turned out to celebrate the new spot in remarkably high numbers
