Hester Nights

Spend Thursday evenings at this gastronome-palooza in the Eventi hotel’s 12,000-square-foot, tree-studded, open-air plaza, strung with twinkling lights. Snacks include Thai street food from Khao Man Gai NY, made-to-order pies from Ludlow Pizza, Vietnamese sandwiches from Food Freaks Banh Mi, and Peruvian empanadas and alfajores from Jessy’s Pastries. Wash them down with a cocktail ($12), a draft Greenport Harbor Spring Turning Saison ($6) or a pitcher ($14) from the on-site Brighton Tiki Bar. If your hectic workday has caught up with you, chill out with a free flick and gratis popcorn in the Brighton theater (7:30pm).
