Franny’s Owners Expand Into Brooklyn Larder

Grub Street reports today that Franny's, one of Brooklyn's most beloved pizza places, is planning to expand.

Franny’s Owners Expand Into Brooklyn Larder
In the spirit of their artisanal-product-loving locavore ways, Franny’s owners Francine Stephens and Andrew Feinberg plan to open a gourmet shop down the street called the Brooklyn Larder in March 2009. In addition to a full kitchen for Feinberg to prepare and package everything from sandwiches and lasagne to fried chicken for takeout or casual counter-noshing, the shop will stock the house-cured meats also found at Franny’s, as well as an international brigade of small-production cheeses and a hodgepodge of condiments and other foodstuffs. The Website, Bklynlarder.com, should be up by week's end. With a larder to browse, the hour-long waits for Franny's airy pizza pies just got much easier.
