"Alton Brown is a prominent figure in the culinary scene, known for his time on "Good Eats" on Food Network as an equally entertaining and informative host. Well-rounded commentaries on food and historical and scientific food facts make up some of his most memorable TV moments. We can only imagine the whirlwind of flavors and the depth he's explored, though we can always get a glimpse of them through Brown's favorite restaurants."
"In an Instagram post, he shared that The Turk's Inn was his favorite restaurant in Brooklyn, New York. While its doors opened in Bushwick in 2019, its history can be traced back to 1934. A supper club with the same name was popular in Wisconsin at the time, and it was known for its dynamic ambiance, complete with vivacious belly dancing and, believe it or not, an entourage of peacocks."
Alton Brown named The Turk's Inn his favorite restaurant in Brooklyn. The Turk's Inn opened in Bushwick in 2019 but traces its history to a 1934 Wisconsin supper club. The original supper club featured vivacious belly dancing and an entourage of peacocks alongside lively entertainment. The Wisconsin location closed in 2015 after the founders' daughter's death. Varun Kataria and Tyler Erickson revived the concept in Brooklyn, purchasing original knick-knacks from an auction. The Brooklyn location retains the large flashy sign, dramatic red bar, and numerous vintage trinkets, creating a flamboyant, supper-club atmosphere.
