Now THAT’S a SWEET HOME!
If the gingerbread man from the movie ‘Shrek’ happens to be in the market for a new home, he’ll love the neighborhood at FP3 this holiday season. Sportello is once again hosting its annual Fort Point Gingerbread Challenge, where local Fort Point restaurants and shops build confectionery dwellings made from delicious gingerbread. The custom-built homes will be on display in the FP3 Gallery in December, and the winning gingerbread house will be… eventually eaten!
