Scenes from the Red Hook Ball Fields

Impatient kid, waiting for his pupusas

There are a lot of food events going on this weekend, but I picked up a quick breakfast around the Red Hook Ball Fields. Every year, vendors from El Salvador, Mexico, DR, Colombia and Guatemala sell out of trucks parked along the fields, where kids play soccer and families set up for the day to watch. You'll find them here every weekend until October, 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., on the corner of Bay and Clinton Streets.
