The Meatball Shop has started a circular craze.
Since the opening of The Meatball Shop in the Lower East Side and it’s second outpost that recently opened in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, people and chefs alike are engaging this childhood favorite rolled meat in full steam. You might also recall The Meatball Shop’s latest competitor, Meatball Factory which has declared that their meatballs will be better than what’s currently on the market.
