Portside Wharf’s evolution continues at a fast clip, with news breaking recently that the Happy Fat Group – the team behind Ruby, My Dear and COPPA – would be bringing an offshoot of its heralded burger concept Red Hook to the riverside precinct in September. Dumbo – named after the iconic Brooklyn neighbourhood, Down Under Manhattan Bridge Overpass – will channel the same New York-based inspirations as Red Hook, offering a menu of American-inspired street food alongside a drinks menu featuring natural wines, playful cocktails, and international and domestic craft beers. Dumbo’s food offering will feature many of Red Hook’s core favourites, but the range will also be bolstered by a selection of eats tailored to the eatery’s waterfront surroundings. Dumbo will join Sbagliata, The Ballpark and Portside Social as part of the next stage of Portside Wharf’s ongoing $20-million redevelopment program.
