Well seasoned

These two first met while working the bar at Danny Meyer’s Blue Smoke—he was a bartender, she a manager and beverage director. By then, they were both already Meyer stalwarts (their combined experience: 11 years). “Working for [Meyer] taught us that long-term success is founded on good hospitality, careful hiring of staff and the need to take care of your community,” says Boggs.
At their new venture, Huckleberry Bar (588 Grand St between Leonard and Lorimer Sts, Williamsburg, Brooklyn; 718-218-8555), the duo applies this customer-first approach in a Brooklyn setting, while placing a premium on quality products. The idea of being a “huckleberry,” or the right person for the job, is central to their vision. “Higher-end restaurants don’t often let you be yourself,” Schneider explains. “We want to relate to the people we are serving.” —DG
