The neighborhood boys really enjoyed the fresh squeezed limonata (lemonade)—and so did we |
We had an absolutely wonderful time at the 52nd Annual Bay Ridge Third Avenue Festival, where the neighborhood came alive under a picture-perfect sky. The air was filled with the aroma of Sicilian flavors as we enjoyed arancini, sfincione, pulpo, pane panelle, and crocche—each bite a tribute to tradition and celebration. To finish, we washed it all down with a cheeky and refreshing limonata a cosce aperte (“open legs lemonade”), an effervescent Neapolitan specialty bursting with zest. It was a feast of food, culture, and community spirit, the kind of day that stays with you long after the last sip of lemonade.
