Satisfy any craving with these sensory delights.
Before brick-and-mortar cannabis stores began to bloom in NYC like so many daffodils in spring, local imbibers would travel as near as Massachusetts and as far as Montreal to gather all manner of flower and return to fair Gotham for April 20 celebrations as merry as the Easter parade.
The peak of these fêtes was always the following feast, a way to slake the tremendous rumbling hunger accrued by good and noble weed-seeking travelers. We still celebrate with these banquets today, which often include the traditional “munchies” like pizza, chips, ice cream and doughnuts. All of these and beyond are available under one roof at Brooklyn’s Time Out Market New York this 4/20 (Four Twenty) and always, to satiate your own THC-influenced appetite, even if it only worked up at the cute new shop.
Desires satisfied: Melty cheese and crisp carbs.
A classic of the genre, pizza is the remedy and the amplifier for any cannabis aficionados. Like all pies save, perhaps, the personal, Fornino’s are fit to share or enjoy all on your own at times when a mighty hunger strikes. Choose from varieties topped with sopressata, fennel sausage, prosciutto, mozzarella and tomato, piled with local mushrooms, or classic like the popular Margherita.
Desires satisfied: Creamy pasta.
Whatever pre-eating strain you choose, a dive into top barbecue maker Bark Barbecue’s creamy mac and cheese is like diving into an Olympic-sized hot tub full of comfort. Prepare to elevate, soothe and improve your chemically-altered mood.
Desires satisfied: Crunch, salt and a little heat.
Are they as magic as the rainbow of magical dancing bears dancing across your field of vision and your field of vision alone? Sure, why not. And these crispy, spiced fries are equally suited to a good sit down while you think your thoughts or to hold and stroll as the atmosphere unleashes sights previously unseen, depending on the strength of your chosen product, of course.
Desires satisfied: Sweet and soft.
To wake and to bake is a custom older than 4/20 itself, and the bountiful blueberry pancakes at Clinton St. are the peak vehicle to do so. The stack is packed with wild Maine bush fruit and served with a luxurious side of warm maple butter.
Desires satisfied: Breakfast confections anytime.
Have you ever, like, considered the circle? So round, so eternal. Order a bunch to munch from NYC favorite confectioner Dough, which creates flavors to suit all tastes, including plain glazed, hibiscus and chocolate cocoa nib.
Desired satisfied: Crunchy and smooth.
Chips have many moments in a lifetime. Packed in a lunchbox for school. Served in platters at parties to give you something to do with your hands. And as a vehicle for smashed avocado and pulverized tomato on one of the world’s best snacking holidays.
Desires satisfied: Rib-sticking meat.
Like pizza, burgers are a platonic ideal of the munchie fulfillment form. Get them from famed meat purveyor Pat LaFrieda on the Market’s beautiful 5th floor rooftop for not only a bite of the finest sliders and double burgers in town, but also a truly inspirational view, as if you needed any more stimulation.
Desires satisfied: Cold, dairy-fresh sweetness.
Whether you want heaps or just a scoop, Sugar Hill’s tasty frozen blends can bend like the clouds and the sky in your mind to accommodate any level of desire. Pints, sundaes and ice cream sandwiches are all available in addition to your standard single, double and triple dips.
