CROWN HEIGHTS — A new Mediterranean and a Vietnamese food joint will be replacing Pizza Moto and Ramen Burger at the Crown Heights beer hall, Berg’n, this summer.
Berg'n, at 899 Bergen St., currently has four food stalls in its beer hall, including a hot dog booth called Asia Dog and a barbecue vendor called Mighty Quinn's. Now, it's adding two new cuisines to the mix.
Samesa, a new Mediterranean restaurant from chef brothers Eli and Max Sussman, opened Tuesday, serving up sandwiches and salads like a tahini-and-buttermilk flavored chicken shawarma for $12 and a tomato salad with cumin vinaigrette for $10.
Bunk*r, a new Vietnamese eatery from the owners of Ridgewood's Bun-Ker, will launch on June 30, with pork and crab spring rolls for $11 and noodle dishes like "bun cha" made with pork belly and local greens for $15.
Ramen Burger is leaving the Berg'n to focus on its outdoor food vending operations at multiple Smorgasburg locations this summer, said Berg’n co-founder Eric Demby, who noted that Berg'n had always planned to rotate its food vendors.
“It’s nice for us to evolve,” Demby said of the two new vendors. “We’re hoping that it’s what people in the neighborhood want and need."
