Brooklyn Flea

Go Seek Antiques probably intended for their candelabra to become a nice interior highlight, but Martina and Eric have other ideas. Oh, and let's hope someone else gets a chance at the lobster rolls before these two come again. Meet our BFFs of the week, Martina and Eric!

What do you have here?

Eric: Protection! For walking down the street!

Martina: No! We bought a a candelabra.

E: Yeah, because we are trying to save on energy. Electricity is very expensive. So this is us becoming greener and greener.

Is that true?

M: No. Ha. We need something tall for the table that really sticks out. So it's perfect.

E: But we both like a lot of candlelight.

M: We'll put candles in here—this is not something for just decor.

E: And use it for holiday parties.

M: Yeah, holiday parties.

When's your next holiday party?

M: I'm from Italy so we always have friends coming over in December and January.

E: We are also going to have 120 people over for a Brooklyn Youth Chorus Parent Party.

That's a lot!

M: Yes, we have a lot of people all the time, very informal though.

Do you live in the area?

M: Yes, we live up the hill over there [ed.: the Heights].

Do you come to the Flea often?

M: This is his first time, but I have come several times. I have been to the Fort Greene one too, and when it was inside in DUMBO.

E: We are also friends with the lobster roll people.

Red Hook Lobster Pound?

E: Yes, I had a lobster roll today! They are fabulous. It's all lobster, hardly any mayonnaise, the bread is very light. So you can eat like 3 or 4 of them!

M: I already had 2 today!

Thanks guys!
