NEW YORK—There are two new things you need to know about Smorgasburg: The popular Brooklyn flea food market will now last year-round; and its new Williamsburg space is 50,000 square feet of even more delicious goodness. 

Up until now, a few select Smorg vendors sold food in the basement of the former Williamsburgh Savings Bank in Fort Greene. But its new winter indoor space has room for 75 food vendors and 125 goods vendors. 

A visitor to look forward to is celebrity meat man, Pat LaFrieda, who will host a meat pop-up shop. They will sell various cuts including rib roasts and New York strips, reported Eater NY. 

Smorgasburg’s new indoor market will operate every weekend starting the weekend of Nov. 30 until April, when it returns outdoors. 

It will be open an extra hour—from 10 a.m through 7 p.m—until Christmas. It is open on the weekend of Dec. 21 and 22 for holiday shopping. 

Afterward, it will return to its 10 a.m to 6 p.m schedule.
