The Food Sermon: Restaurant at Northeast corner of Rogers & Sullivan

Does anybody have any idea what this may be?  I was walking by the other day and saw people working on it.  A younger waved to me from inside - I would have stopped and asked then but I was loaded down with groceries.  I don't have an exact address - I will get that tonight.  Any recon would be appreciated.  2015 is shaping up to be the year Southwest Crown Heights comes into full bloom.    

and it is actually the northEAST corner - MY BAD!

sullivan, you say? wow, that's fairly far down. sweet! 

related to rogers...i saw a shiny new empty corner spot on rogers and union. was this spot discussed?

1148 Union (at Rogers) is being discussed here: http://www.brooklynian.com/discussion/38573/south-of-ep-235-rogers-at-president-you-might-be-next#Item_36

Street Addresses are essential...

Just passed - sign is up - it is almost done - too cold & dark to take pic - will do tomorrow

The Food Sermon

355 Rogers, aka 219 Sullivan

It looks like they are going for catering gigs, in addition to take out.

And a bit of dine-in - it looks great inside. Now I can have a quick bite before I go up a few blocks and sip on drinks at The Branch Office.

Looks completely different now - that's the 'before' pic - I'll get the 'after' tomorrow ;-)

Well damn they showed up rotated. UGH. Anywho - notice the building next door is on the market too.

Yes, Brooklynian seems to only display pictures taken in landscape correctly.

The second one was landscape. I will fix tomorrow. But you get the point - the corner is looking great and I'm digging their sign.

It is a lovely sign

Look at you @whynot_31 with your design skills!

The proprietors have an instagram that they are filling with photos of yummy food and construction photos:

looks amazing! food and decor. But i hope that when their brick and mortar location opens that the Friday hours aren't really just to 4pm.... is there some sort of religious reason for this that i'm missing?

I could be wrong, but I suspect that is a typo.

For clarity, we should ask the owner. I believe this is him:

I'll take an order of that adorable puppy to go.  

It seems my summary was not all inclusive.

Here is another before picture so you can really see how much work went into the space. 

they say the soft opening will be announced soon. i'm looking forward to it!

I received a direct message from the Owner/Chef today.  Opening day for the The Food Sermon will be open this Sunday 2/22 at 1pm. 

I ate from Food Sermon tonight -- it was really good. Apparently they had a set-back with a burst pipe last week, but everything is up and running now. The interior is great, and the owner and his kitchen team are welcoming. 

Had the chicken bowl with chickpeas and a spicy tomato-coconut sauce. Good sorrel too -- not too sweet. 

Now all they need is some yelp reviews!

Do they have a menu online? 

Not that I could find.

I suppose if you enlarge this instagram post you could see it. http://websta.me/p/933690241255516066_415184648

@lilern - can you change the title of this thread to reflect this place's name?

I've walked past this place a few times..it looks cute. Am I the only one who sees the name and pictures a vegan/locavore/organic/fair-trade/etc. person lecturing someone about their food?!
